I've dropped and recreated this site in order to correct a long standing bug. For some months now, clicking a link (E.G.: the forum link) has been a bit of a crapshoot- sometimes it works, sometime it bounces you back to the index page.
I think I may (??) have it fixed now. I've had to disable one block- the random photos block for pictures from the gallery. Hopefully I'll have that back again soon.

Out with the old, in with the new
I've disabled the news feed for Final Fantasy since...well, frankly, since I don't know if anyone here is actually even playing it FFXI Online anyway.
In its place, I've added a countdown timer, currently counting down to EverQuest 2. I'm also on the lookout for a good EQ2 news feed...so far, I haven't found a good one...but I'm still looking.
UPDATE: I now have a working news feed, using the headlines from the official EverQuest 2 home page. Enjoy!

Final Fantasy Online news feed activated
I've added a news feed on the main site for Final Fantasy Online. It comes from Warcry- I'm not sure how good their news items are: let me know if you find it useful!

New logo- thanks Piotr/Jinaar!
Many thanks to Piotr/Jinaar for his excellent work on the new logo. If it doesn't look "perfect", that's entirely my fault: regardless, its an improvement!

Welcome to the ''new'' Solstice Website
I've refreshed the design and added forums. This location on the Internet is dedicated to a group of folks who have gamed, laughed, and snarled at each other through thick and thin for several years. Here we can talk about the games and topics that interest us, and keep in touch. Who knows, one day we may even be playing the same game again! Welcome to the new site!
As with my past attempts to "refresh" things here, I need your help to keep this site fresh. There are links on the top of this page for submitting news: if something interests you and you want to "announce" it to the world, click that link. Shortly I'll be putting another clicky on the top of the page for "Web Links"- again, you can submit any links you think are interesting by clicking that and seeking out the "submit a new link" clicky.
It keeps getting better...: I've added a "Recent posts" block, updated the Random picture section, and added a clicky for "Web Links"...time for lunch ;-)

Changes to news feeds...
After largely ignoring this page for the past few weeks, I've decided to make a few changes.
I've removed the AC2HQ feed from this page: it wasn't working anyway. I'm adding a Blues News feed (general gaming information). And I'm working on both a replacement EverQuest feed (since the Allakhazaam feed was so buggy) and a new Star Wars Galaxies feed. It may take me a while to get the latter two set up, but keep an eye opened here.

Website outages...
I suppose I *could* pretend that my outages were a result of the virus over the weekend, but that would be lying, and we all know lying is bad.

Coming soon- ''Regular'' news items
I have a dream...
You see those news items for EQ and AC2 to the left and right of this main page? They are cool, but I also want to have more "personal" comments regarding news items to draw attention to things that are of particular interest to *us*.

Its all about you! The folks who make up Solstice, that extended group of gaming companions that are now scattered over several different MMOG universes.
