Title: Is TSOY no longer available online for free?
Post by: Myrmidon on August 29, 2006, 07:10:57 PM
Clinton et al.,

  On the old anvilwerks site there was access to the full text of TSOY (both original and revised).  But on the new site, I don't see this available.  Is this an issue of content still being moved over?  Or is this a fundamental change in how this game is available?  Thanks.

Relax. All may yet be very well.

I'm moving all the text into a wiki or something. Who knows? It'll always be free, if only in the hearts of men and unicorns.

Good to know the leopard hasn't changed his spots.  Now all I need to do is figure out how to catch that pesky unicorn.  Maybe something involving virgins and a pomegranate tree.

I keep a (really simple) page for my players here: http://smokingmirror.net/SoY/

...which has everything, I think.

The wiki also has a link to a very slick version: http://zork.net/~nick/loyhargil/tsoy2/book1--rulebook.html

I tried putting everything into a wiki at one point, but it felt really... awkward.  I was just copy and pasting, though.

I should inform you that the link above (http://www.smokingmirror.net/SoY/) appears to have been hacked...by Islamic terrorists.

I's raise a beef with the hosting provider about that one.  Not the kind of stuff I'd be wanting on my site.

Yeah, one of my players was the first to notice it (ugh).  A friend of a friend owns it, and the friend is apparently trying to see whether it's salvagable.  Frankly I'd rather just move, but the domain name is between my friend and me and I'd like to just transfer it so the links can stand.  I've been bugging him about it.
