Cataclysm on the Gaming - d20 board

[WampaX]

So Ray,
Did we really lose everything after the June 2005 date?
Or is it just not being shown on the boards?

The recent questions about the MMIII and what monsters Rich did in it brought to mind his thread on his take on the artwork and what was changed from his original designs. I was wondering if it still existed?

[RawBearNYC]

huh, wha?

The Gaming-d20 Forum stops at June 27th, 2005. Anything prior to that date isn't showing up anymore.

I was wondering if those threads no longer exist, or if they are just hidden from view due to a table error or something.

That's hard to say. There's a file that contains references to all of the files in a given board. That doesn't seem to have references to any files prior to 6/27/2005. But the inditividual files that contain the posts don't contain a reference to the board that they're in. I could grep for a specific text string to find something, but haven't the foggiest idea what to grep for.

Unfortunately, this means that I can't likely rebuild the index file from the individual files either :(

"Topiary Guardian" should produce the appropriate file or at least narrow it down. Look for posts in the Sept/Oct 2004, I think, if you can see their timestamps.

I was hoping to include Rich's post in the Board FAQ since the question coems up about once every month or so.

[RawBearNYC]

yeah, they're there, now what to do... hmmmm.

Oooh, all this talk of the grep command is making it so I need a cold shower. ;D I miss my UNIX days...
