EdgeGamers 2020 Recap. Thank you, EdgeGamers. - January 11th, 2020

This year has been troubling for most - some out of work, some out of school. With all this craziness surrounding our world, we all come together and share the same common interests. Gaming. We have all opted into joining a community of gamers that is supportive, unique, kind, and punk-free. Life as we know will never be the same, but EdgeGamers is proud to be with you during the hard times. We are impressed and excited by everyone’s efforts over the past year and we are excited for 2021. We have made tremendous efforts to give you a more enjoyable experience on our servers and groups. We love to see you all enjoying these efforts, that many people have worked hard towards achieving. Please take time to thank those around you! While it has been a rough year, you made the most of it. Happy New Year and thank you. Here's to 2021!

By far, the best community I've been in, and I just want to thank some people for making it fun while here.

@Dustin : Dustin is one of the BEST people I've met. This guy would go out of his way to help you with anything to the first time we met back in LSCPD to now Dustin has always been there for me and is by far one of the funniest people I've ever met and IDK how edge gamers would be without him. I remember when I and Dustin robbed banks with Animals masks and called our self the RABBIE GANG, and it was by far the best experience I had.

@Wimsickle : WimWim, as I call him, is a great guy, and i can list so many reasons why but am i no? lol but seriously, Wim is so funny while playing games he might suck *Cough Cough* but it's fun asf to play with him, i remember when he told me while playing games his GPU use to shake fun times. He was there day one since i join the server. He Did my training and everything for LSCPD and, overall a great guy.

@OfficerHardman : this yee yee motherfucker is one of the funniest people ever miss the nights where he would just screen share Omegle and even watch scary movies together.

Stone9512 Stone9512 : Oh stone, Stone is by far one of the most chill person I've met. You can spam this guy to play a game with you, and he will. One of the funniest games we played together is phasmophobia, so funny to play with stone. He sucks at games and hacks in modern warfare what a cheater.

@Dink : hopefully, i pinged the right one, but: Parker goes to sleep at like 8PM EST he's a fucking boomer. He would ping you and play one game and say, "Ight I'm going to sleep".

@Depression : stinks.

@Moyye : I would clapped this guy at any game, especially Minecraft.

@Oblixion : Nick is probably tired of me complaining, but he really understands and is a great guy to talk to.
I do suck at COD but at least I'm playing fair and not using aimbot :giggle::giggle:
