Is it from the 80's?
"Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:11-12

I have no regrets.

How about from 1996 to the present, since that's how far back I've gone on Comprehensive Event Listing Wiki?

Give us 3 more guesses, and then reveal it. The only way for someone to find out the event would be to go onto soinc.org and look at each previous event, which is work, albeit easy, but games shouldn't require work. In the future, don't make any of them obnoxious.
