archive from which date?

[MarkG]

for forum speed reasons i'll be archiving posts from all forums.

from which date should i archive posts from this forum?

What reason should we be looking for in choosing the date?

Mark - I will look into this when I get home from work.

NM - should be fairly easy. Anything to do with previous games. Since the current Viking one is not yet finished we should probably keep that, but there's bound to be some from the aborted oversized map Viking DG to archive.

I just need to get a copy of all the vb code stuff I did for the Directories first

I suggest that you archive everything that has been written on 2nd April and prior to that.

Explanation: in the Viking DG, we are at term VI, IIRC, and the discussion threads of term VI have been started on the 3rd April. I think that, with this date, we'll keep every post that is relevant today.

Sounds fair enough to me Spiff

I have just checked through all the previous pages and got backups of some of the more vbcode intensive pages that would be difficult to repeat when these threads are Archived (no reply with quote or edit available to view the exact codes used), including a few of my Directory threads, one of Paddy's and UnO's FAQ thread.

OK everyone, unless there's a protest for a good reason in the next day April 2 will be the cutoff date I suggest to Mark.

Fine with me

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

Can we keep this thread though? Its got a lot of the MiniGame stuff we may need to reference and discuss later.

It was last bumped well after April 2004, so it would stay on this forum anyway.

Besides, it would always be there in the Archive. The only concern is threads where the formatting would be hard to repeat from scratch eg the Directories.
