Future of Mette's Site

Post by **Midnight Synergy** » Sat May 30, 2009 5:30 am

Hi all,

as previously discussed, mette will no longer be hosting or updating the nutters collection of Wonderland related material (levels, solutions, etc).

I have e-mailed with her, and have offered to host the site on Midnight Synergy. That way, the material would be available for some time to come.

There is the question of updating the material. Mette had a routine of downloading new levels and content each time she came on the site in order to keep material up to date - she has sent me her "to do list" for reference. If someone from the community (one or more people) would be interested in carrying the torch and continuing the updating user-submitted material, I could certainly assist, for example by giving these people ftp access to the directory on Midnight Synergy, and hence allow them to update the material on a regular basis.

If anyone is seriously considering continuing what mette started (and "serious" is important - it would definitely be an investment in time), please let me know.

Having said that, someone might also have alternate ideas on how to build on what mette has created. If so, chime in. Chris, for example, is building a database style application for the levels. I must admit that I'm not sure about the details - but perhaps there is a possibility for some, well, synergy.

In my opinion the only things that really need saving are the solutions etc. for WA and MOFI made by the players. All the other things are already on a site, either this one or MS, somewhere. It would be a shame to lose the solutions after all the hard work that went into them.

I'm not offering to look after them though.

The levels should be saved too, nowadays it is so hard to find levels on the forum

I've seen people who lost their files and have to reinstall the game, or install it on a new machine, and they want to (re)download all the custom levels, textures, models, etc. Is there another site for that, or is Mette's site the only one that lets you do that sort of "download everything"?

I would recommend simply making a complete mirror of mette's site, if the space is available.

Agreed. It would take ______ amount of time to download the custom levels, especially those for RTW.
