| New Site Logo | 23.30 GMT 8th November 1999 |
| Yes, if you
bothered to wait for the 800kb image to load, you would have seen how truly excellent it
is. If you didn't wait to see it load, and want to, click here. This very
attractive animation was made for me by a good friend, Matt Bowman. He's curious about
joining 69, but I told him it might be a good idea for him to play the game first... Many
thanks for the logo Matt, now where are those banners? :) NOTE: The logo was replaced by a Flash show, since the GIF was a tad too large... |

| Updated Rankings Section | 23.15 GMT 8th November 1999 |
| I've just finished constructing a new Rankings section. The data is now on separate pages, stored by Week. I decided to change it because the way it was, the page would have grown very large quite quickly. This data, although it may look boring to you, is actually quite useful to us, so we know just who's the top scorer of the week. I wonder who it could be this week... :) | |

| Friendly Clan Match Postponed | 00.00 GMT 8th November 1999 |
| Our clan match from last night got postponed, due to people getting dumped off free ISPs (goddamned BT, switched to F9 now), and clan members not turning up (basically a lack of interest). We may have it next week now, but we have a few reservations, especially about the person who set it up... | |

| New Rankings Section | 15.30 GMT 6th November 1999 |
| I've just finished putting the last touches on the Rankings section. I took the data from The Daily Record, and just put up the scores for our clan for the data I already have, which is just last week so far. I'll add this past weeks data tomorrow. | |

| We have an IRC Channel! | 04.15 GMT 6th November 1999 |
| Yep, 69 now has an
IRC channel, set up this evening by Red Devil and WiseBuddha while I sat and watched, not
having a clue what was going on. The channel is #KPers on DALnet,
so pop on by, see if we're in... NOTE: We now have a different IRC channel, #kingpin69, still on DALnet |

| Site Finished! | 14.30 GMT 5th November 1999 |
| Well it's took about 4 hours from start to finish, but I've finally finished the barebones of the site. Hopefully over the coming weeks, we'll get some new members and I'll be able to add some more news, instead of letting it rot like all my previous sites I've done... | |

| Clan Update | 11.00 GMT 5th November 1999 |
| Well, since the
clan was started a few months ago, we've had a few changes. Chris "Pepperami"
Tricker has gone AWOL, after moving house, we haven't seen him for weeks. We have a new
member, Manuel "WiseBuddha" [dunno], a veteran of Quake 2 and Half-Life, and
he's not half bad. Better than me anyway! He joined on the 24th October, but I'm just
giving you all the news in one go here rather than go back and find out all the dates for
sure. Anyway, he's pretty good, which is all that matters. Check out all the members in
the Clanhouse. We started this clan just for fun, but since then we've started getting more serious, mainly since I gave Red Devil the URL for the Rankings page, he's been mad about getting better since then... If I could go back and change just ONE thing... |

| The 69ers HomePage created! | 10.30 GMT 5th November 1999 |
| I've [RichieH]
been slaving over this page all day instead of doing Uni work like I should be, but it's
worth it... Go on, take a look around. Feel free to email me with any
suggestions/criticisms/flamings etc. Take a look in our Clanhouse to find out about past, current, and maybe future members. Who knows, maybe you may one day be part of [69]! Hop along to our Download section to download some... files really! At the moment it's just our skins that we play with. That's right, here at [69] we custom make our very own unique skins for each member. There's also a Links section - this contains all the very best links we've come across during our Kingpin Net surfing. Some great links are there, including PlanetKingpin (the best site on the net), the Daily Record (Ranking and Ladders), Fileplanet (for all Kingpin related and many other downloads), and many, many more links, all sorted ready for you. So, what are you waiting for? Go! [Note: Links have been removed since the website has changed...] |

| The 69ers are go! | Friday 17th September 1999 |
| The 69ers were formed, on this day, by it's founding members: Steven "Red Devil" Mainwaring, Chris "Pepperami" Tricker, and Richard "Gravatar" Harding. Our first game as a clan was played sometime on this night, but it was a very long time ago and I can't remember it very well! Needless to say, I probably played crap... | |
