Dr. Snyder Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 I have been looking for the old SS database that I have recently found out was no longer hosted. I checked web archive and I found the link to get to the database but the database itself was never archived. http://web.archive.org/web/20050622042458/...ace/scores.html That is the archive link as of May 11 2005. I was curious if anyone had any idea what happend to it, who might have it, where I might be able to find it. I more or less don't expect anyone to know as I have asked around a fair amount but I was curious to know if anyone here knew of it and I would very much like to search it again.... Thanks
Samapico Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 Everything known about that database was lost at some point. We're working on a new scores database though... Can't tell you much more than that about it
»1587200 Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 The guy who ran the site closed it after he left the game. The domain expired, he didn't play anymore, and saw no reason to keep it going, so it disappeared.
Dr. Snyder Posted October 26, 2008 Author Report Posted October 26, 2008 (edited) I assume this means it is pretty much lost forever? no one is known to have archived it? I have heard of these attempts to get a new database up but it won't include the old scores I assume. If I had foreseen this I might have worked to try to log some of the scores... ofc that might have been a royal !@#$%^&*. I assume there is no way to contact the guy... I saw a link for the e-mail of BD Vine.... is he the guy that ran it? If he is has anyone tried to contact him/her and ask if him/her still has the info somewhere and would be willing to share it? Just a thought. Thanks for the replies guys Edited October 26, 2008 by Dr. Snyder
