The site continued to be busy, with so many new members. We made a pretty significant upgrade to the hardware that powers the site and to our database. In addition, we upgraded to a much more robust chat that has been quite popular.
It was definitely tough as we lost so many great athletes. Here's a list of Players who passed away in 2012:
We have been working hard on a partnership that will provide some important new functionality and I was hoping to have it all ready by now. Hopefully it will be ready by the end of January or early February 2013.
SCN is far and away the best resource and community in the world for Sports Autograph Collectors with nothing else even close. You guys make that happen. Take care everyone and I really appreciate everyone's continued support.
