Ok. The rules. I will ask a starter question. Whomever can answer that question will be able to ask the next question, and if somebody can answer that, then they get to ask a question. Got it?
Do not answer a question and then ask a question unless you are positive of your answer. Try to be self policing or this could get complicated.
First Question!
Who is forum member #1?

That would be Bolty, of course!
Next question: Who commanded the USS Enterprise just prior to James T. (know what the T stands for?) Kirk taking over?

Question #2:
How many times has the mainpage design been revamped, since it was Bolty's Strategy (central, was it?)

I'd just be guessing at how many times the site has been redesigned, but it was originally called Bolty's Diablo Strategy Central (BDSC).
Here's one:
Before moving to IPB and Bolty's own hosting, how were the LL forums hosted?

My best guess is five times, but I have a feeling that I'm a bit below the mark - I came onto the scene a bit after Bolty's Strategy Central.

Just to smooth things a bit...
was it Captain Pike?
I think about Captain Pike often -- there is a road sign a few miles from my house that says "Col Pike" -- and I always think, "he must have been promoted, no wait there's no colonel in navy ranks, he must have joined the Starfleet Marines..."
And how is this related to the Lounge? Well, Capt. Pike is chairbound, as are most of us when we're in the Lounge. Too weak? Well how about this... the character of the kindergarten teacher in South Park was clearly based upon Capt. Pike: the inability to move after a tragic accident, stuck in a chair with a built in beep thing that beeps once for "yes" and twice for "no" (pretty low-tech for a civilization that can use transporter beams and warp drives -- how cheap is a voice synthesizer?). This ties into the lounge because her job is similar to Griselda's. Still too weak? Okay, those guys that took Capt. Pike to where he could hallucinate 24/7 that he was still young and active, remember them? They had these huge huge heads that evidently housed large brains -- WELL! One of the slogan thingies that you can get when you navigate to LL is something like "Grow your brain by a maximum of 5 inches!" Coincidence or what?
Hold it! I bet Bolty IS one of those Hallucinator guys!!!

Griselda is going to complain that I am creating useless threads again.
Not my fault... <_<

Originally, the page had some plain yellow layout.
The first redesign turned the page into a blue-and-white layout.
The second one gave the page a purple layout.
The third one had a lot of brown in it, and I think this was the one with the two-column layout where both Bolty and Griselda entered news items.
The fourth one coincided with the introduction of the Mambo portal system, and gave the site a frontpage which linked to the various sections, although I believe the layout in terms of graphics and style was essentially the same as it is today.
The fifth one would have been the removal of the frontpage, and a streamlining of the site, although I believe the layout didn't really change much, so it wouldn't have been a total redesign in the sense as some of the earlier ones.
And thinking about it while writing it, makes me think I've mucked up the timeline here and there :P

This answer was findable on the Main Page, for those interested. The answer is 9.
Quote:29 December 2004.
The Lurker Lounge is once again overhauled for its ninth redesign. Bolty swears that he'll never do it again. We've heard that before. The site now runs on the Mambo content management system. The World of Warcraft section is born and a third game joins the ranks of the chosen for Lurkers everywhere to study in detail
Sorry, Leshy, no points toward a free pizza for that answer. :lol:
As to the following, Doc:

Your brain? :blink:
Now, since I have correctly answered the Lounge Trivia Question, I will ask a trivia poser:
What is the meaning behind the handle MMAgCh, one of our early Admins/Mods.
Hint: The letters mean something significant to the Lounge and its purpose.

Hmm, forgot what the first 2 letters were, but presumably it had something to do with his name. The last 4 letters stand for AgainstCheaters.
God knows why I remember this stuff.
Ok now: Which famous (or infamous) Diablo 1 player (and DSF regular) beat Diablo in D2 (in the very early days) on Normal without distributing any attribute or skill points with a pure Pally, declared that the game was too easy and never played D2 again (at least as far as we know)?

Lok?
I think Crystalion also liked to not allocate points, but I think he played D2.
I won't add a new question, because the MMAgCh question is still in play, I think, since the M's weren't explained.

For the first part, if memory serves, it's Mad Mac AGainst CHeaters.
You know, I played with that players a dozen times, and his name is on the tip of my tongue, but I can't bring it out. =/
