Hello and welcome to our newbies! 
One of the 'we're not even remotely dead yet' events happening is the run-up to the 10th Anniversary of the first post of SSSS, 1 November 2013.  There are ongoing polls (round 2 of the SSSS Character Smackdown aiming to start this weekend) to determine a final boss the fandom's favourite character, and every October we run a creative challenge for daily fanworks (a la InkTober, although not just art) set to a series of prompts.  It's not much of a spoiler to say that this year's prompts are based on Ten.

Welcome!!
Fate gives all of us three teachers, three friends, three enemies, and three great loves in our lives. But these twelve are always disguised, and we never know which one is which until we've loved them, left them, or fought them.

It's neat to see another amateur radio operator here!  I'm not sure how the "climate" differs between our two countries, though.

I think we have at least two other persons who are into amateur radio? If I recall correctly they were in the USA and Germany?
