Happy 2014!

Welcome to 2014, MSX fans! As usual we take a little trip back to memory lane and look at what last year has offered us MSX fans - and we can look back yet on another great year for MSX. Not only did we celebrate the 30th anniversary of our MSX system with various events around the world, a steady flow of new software, hardware and (improved) emulators showed that MSX is still alive and kicking.

Some of our highlights of 2013 were the #msxdev compo and its entries, the personal history on MSX in Kuwait by Danderma, Nijmegen 2013, Wozblaster, the Zemmix Neo, Modulon slot expander, our Thirty Years MSX Event. To name a only a few.

As for MSX Resource Center, organizing a second event and arranging the performances of Carola Cortenbach and West Side Trio ft. Zanne were definitely a unique experience that would not have been made possible by your support and donations. A big thank you to everyone who was there, participated or supported this event in any form is more than in place.

Now for the stats of 2013 compared to those of 2012:

• News posts: 265 (383)
• Forum posts: 16.667 (16.800)
• Reactions: 3.209 (3.493)
• Wiki edits: 824 (2.418)
• Page views: 2.274.075 (2.242.060)

As usual, the values between brackets are the scores of last year. And that leaves us with a list of the 10 most active MRC members of the year.

1. Manuel (952)
2. mars2000you (456)
3. Guillian (427)
4. Pablibiris (312)
5. Retrofan (325)
6. Bowie38 (304)
7. Bothman (287)
8. hit9918 (260)
9. flyguille (259)
10. NYYRIKKI (259)

Our thanks go out to these 10 extremely active MRC visitors, but also to all the others who contributed to the MRC in any way throughout the year. In total, 764 members were active on the MSX Resource Center in 2013, which is 64 more than last year. We would also like to thank all the active MSX developers who keep bringing us new and surprising hardware, software, websites and magazines. Last, but certainly not least, we would like to thank all the people who have sent us a donation by bank or PayPal this year. As the MRC is growing and growing, so are the costs to keep the site online and in movement. Even with small donations, you helped (and are helping) to keep our site online,

The entire MSX Resource Center crew would like to wish all of you an amazing year. Lets make it even better than the last one! MSX Forever!
