Happy Christmas to all.

Thanks to Wizard, all the layout creators, rom dumpers, resource buyers, rom identifiers & cataloggers, hardware buyers & sellers, and all the forum hosts and admin.

Personal thanks to thnose that were there for me back in May, from those that wrote pages to me, and those that just said "take care".  It meant a lot.

FME is for life, not just for Christmas.

Sure been a great year for FME, with just the odd bump and 2018 looks to continue that trend (cue this being quoted in Dec 2018, with you were saying lol).

One of the things I miss around this time, is a T****Y roundup of the years FME events.

So Happy Christmas everyone, especially those who are friends with me on Facebook also.

This lol.


This but 2020.

Its been a SHIT year in more ways than one, so all I've got to say at this time is thank you to everyone who visited us at DADsFME this last year, especially those who continue to create layouts, source roms and provide other resources, the scene simply wouldn't exist without you.  Thankyou!

The future of FME is in our hands and so long as we keep doing what we are doing then the memory of Chris Wren (RIP) will live on through next year and beyond.  I for one will be raising a glass or two on Christmas Day and pause for a moment to think of Chris and his family.  I hope you'll join me too.

Peace and goodwill to everyone in FMEland :)



Welcome to DADsFME, enjoy your stay :)

All the very best to all here at dadsfme. Your not wrong apart from 2016 when I lost my mum, this is deffo the second worse year I have had.

This year has drained and stressed me to the max being self employed. I too will be raising a glass to the legend that is wizard/Chris tou really are missed....

Aye, All the best guys and gals... This year has been a bad one for a lot of people.
People getting ill, friends and family passing away ( Rest in piece Wizard ).
We soldier on as its what we do.
I'm sorry to hear about your Mum, Tommy.. its hard losing anyone especially your mum as you kinda just think they will be around forever... i know i did when mine passed away at the age of 54 to the Big C.
Hope next year things start looking up and people can get back to normality or something close to it.
I wish you all a Merry Christmas in advance as im always so slow to post it normally lol
Thanks Wizard, DAD, and everyone else that makes MFME possible.
Stay safe, keep your families safe, and raise a glass for Chris AKA Wizard this year and many more to come.

I wish I could just do my usual bump post this year, but sadly events means I can't.

But still, Happy Christmas everyone, including a special heavenly one to Wizard and those who have lost family/friends this year.

Yes its that time of year again, and keeping up with tradition its time to dig up this old thread once more ;)  You know Christmas wouldn't be the same without it would it? :D


Many thanks to the staff here at DADsFME and to each and every one of you who still visit the site, I'd like to wish you all....

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

2021 has been a strange year yet again for FME.  Many people are still struggling to cope with the passing of wizard and it still feels there's an empty void which will never be filled.  On the other hand other hand we have been treated to johnparker007's simply stunning arcade simulator which has taken FME to a whole new level.  I can't wait to see how this developes in the coming years.

I've also been thinking about DADsFME, especially as it's coming towards the 20th anniversary and whether to close up shop (again).  As I write this I'm aware that it'll only be read by a handful of people and can't help wondering if there's really a need to have a seperate FME site when DIF provides everything you'll ever need.  Even most of the layout designers have stopped releasing here for whatever reason, but I'm so grateful for those few that do.  I recall posting at FE many years ago regarding DADsFME saying "use it or lose it" and that's the way I feel right now.

I kinda feel nostalgic at the moment too and thoughts go back to how it all started.  I had a look at WAYBACK and found a few links pointing to DADsFME in the early days.  There's some very interesting reading on there for those of you who were around at the time ;)  If you're interested, here's a couple of links to look up...

Back on track though and I'd like to offer my thanks again to the late wizard for MFME, all the current layout designers, Rom providers, resource gatherers and everyone else who puts their time and effort into making things happen.  You are all fantastic!

Cheers and all the very best for 2022 :)
