Back in the day we used to put a series of code in our signatures which people could hover the mouse over and it would tell you the nerd history of that person, things like what their first copy of White Dwarf was, what their grasp of the rules were, how long they'd been involved etc etc.

Is that not a thing any more?

Main reason for asking is that whenever I wrote mine I spent quite a bit of time figuring out what my first copy of White Dwarf was. I want to answer that question again but I've already done the work, but now I can't find the answer.

Many thanks!

I don't know how many still use it, but there's an article breaking down the Dakka Code here - https://www.dakkadakka.com/wiki/en/The_Dakka_Code

I don’t keep it in my sig, but have one in my bio. Thanks for the reminder, I needed to update it. I play less these days, but have more armies...
