With 5293 points, the Turkish/Canadian contributor Depeche Mike Isguder joins the All-Time Top 50 MobyGames Contributors.

For comparison, I only needed 1500 points to join the Top 25 Contributors list in 2001. When the list was expanded to include 50 contributors two and a half years later, it was possible to enter it with 1000 points only.

As points grow, so does our database. Congratulations to Mike and to all the other contributors. Keep up the good work!

Hooray Mike!

Wow, congratulations to Mike! A good first step towards greatness!

Congratulations, Mike. Nice job. And look at the way he started the new year. If he keeps it up, someone will face tough competition this year. That's impressive.

DreinIX noted this yesterday, too, but I'm glad to have another chance to add my congratulations officially! It also gives me a chance to say how much I like his avatar (one of the few that has remained the same since I first dropped in), which I believe he drew himself. Talent!

Oh, yes. Be sure to visit his site for very interesting drawings. Highly recommended. Then again I always have been a sucker for watercolor art.

I would have submitted it as a News item here but apart from saying that he made it to the top 50 I didn't know what else to write (I had to write something more than that - well no worries from me now - JazzOleg did). And again congratulations.

Geez thanks everyone for making me blush! Thanks also for the comments on my artwork. I hope to get some new ones up soon, and yes mom I did draw my icon :)
