I'm getting pretty antsy to get started, too. I went through most of my seeds yesterday. Can't say as I removed all the missing varieties from my list, but I did update it to include newly obtained varieties, mostly sweets, ornamentals and a few new supers. Hope to start my '16 glog later today or tomorrow and get some seeds started over the weekend.
A lot of my seeds are old, too, and those are the ones I'll be starting first. One of the hardest things for me to do is throw away old seeds, pepper or otherwise. I've also had some mold in ziplocks due to inadequate drying. The biggest problem I've had is pantry moths. I don't know how they get inside the ziplock, but I've had thousands of seeds destroyed by the larva. If I were keeping them refrigerated like I know I should, that wouldn't be a problem, but I'm getting to the point I'm going to have to get a separate refrigerator just for seeds. Or actually, I guess a freezer; I've read the optimum temperature for storage is -18ºC/0ºF w/ seeds dried to 5% or less moisture content.
Some of the "new" supers (for me, anyway) I'm looking forward to growing are Red and Brown Bhutlah, 7P Lava, Devil's Brain, Nagabrain. I started the latter two last year, but again, dropped the ball on grow-out. I've also got several mutations from my own garden to continue growing out, 7P Peach, Caramel, and Mustard (the first two from PL's Congo SR Gigantic and the latter from a 7P Brown), a banana-scented yellow bhut, and a peach variant of a "not" Carolina Reaper. If you're interested in trying any of these, or anything else on my list once I get it up, PM me. For some of these I have very limited stock, but I should be able to spare at least a few seeds.
