@OldHonoredFan shared this on Discord - a ZU Scrapbook website from 2004. Some classic photos there. link21911.tripod.com/zuscrapbook/index.html

Yeah that's how it goes. In this era where anyone can start a subreddit or a facebook group or a discord server, traditional message board software development is basically on life support. You can find some relatively stable software that looks like it came out 10 years ago, but not much that really adapts to the times, aside from stuff like Discourse (which we looked at, but it's just too different for a lot of the current forum users to adapt to).

My favorite 2001 forum page is this one though: web.archive.org/web/2001060401…forums.zeldauniverse.net/ "You are free to post everything you feel to, as long as it follow the rules below.

There was forum... stuff in 2001. Like three or four different forum softwares doing various things, most of them aren't archived by the wayback machine but you can see one here web.archive.org/web/2001102423…net/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi The records of this database we're currently using basically start from an import of a 2002 forum into vBulletin

Quote from TheBuzzSaw: “I'm curious to know more about that event labeled "vBulletin crashes". I mean, I know vBulletin is a bloated mess, but I don't remember such an event. I do remember when the site transitioned to the new design (which seems to still be in effect to some degree with modifications). ” It’s a whole saga. Basically vBulletin spent a few months getting less and less stable (well a few years, but in the last few months the problems were getting more and more absurd) until it fin…

Some helpful graphs on the black vote, the party loyalist vote and the young vote respectively during the 2016 primary, courtesy of the WSJ. buO2yIb.png As you'll remember, in 2016 there were any number of similar stories to that Kamala Harris story you shared, about Hillary and whether her and her husband's policies have been good for black people (and to try and cut this off before it becomes an unrelated argument, I agree with a lot of those points! My post is about understanding how the demo…

Yeah the 2016 Democratic primary had like, Lincoln Chafee or whatever. A bunch of them will go away fast. It will narrow down to people favored by specific groups within the coalition that makes up the Democratic Party. 538 created a model where these are the five groups to try and sway within the Democratic Party. 1. Party Loyalists 2. The Left 3. Millennials and Friends 4. Black voters 5. Hispanic voters (sometimes in combination with Asian voters) (the article explains why they're grouped tog…

My tastes trend towards lighter stuff and comedy, though I do like some dramas also. As far as catching up with the last few years of anime, my top 10 anime list for 2016 went like this: #10 Sakamoto desu ga? #9 ReLIFE #8 Jojo: Diamond is Unbreakable #7 My Hero Academia #6 Tanaka-kun is Always Listless #5 Erased #4 Konosuba #3 Saiki Kusuo no Ψ-nan #2 Yuri!!! on Ice #1 Mob Psycho 100 As for 2017 onwards I'm still not quite caught up yet and don't think I made a ranked list but from memory in no r…

Zelda website new user activity is fundamentally a reflection of the Zelda series launch cycle, though we do have some level of power over retaining new users once they arrive. So yeah, after that boost around the release of Twilight Princess in 2006, Twilight Princess kept selling because it was a launch game for the Wii and continued to sell for years afterward. Skyward Sword was nice but a blip, which I think is pretty reflective of how Zelda fans feel about it lol as well as a reflection of …

Hi F3 I forgot to respond to HeroOfTime5 before but those numbers generally line up with mine. Here is an annotated graph of the full history (minus 2002-pre vBulletin stuff): zeuhSZt.png

Following someone doesn't do anything in particular though as far as I'm aware.

Meanwhile, Howard Schultz isn't getting a single egg twitter.com/joshtpm/status/1091492429004505089

FiveThirtyEight have been having discussions on strengths and weaknesses of Democratic Primary candidates as they announce: How Elizabeth Warren Could Win The 2020 Democratic Nomination How Kamala Harris Could Win The 2020 Democratic Nomination How Kirsten Gillibrand Could Win The 2020 Democratic Nomination How Tulsi Gabbard Could Win The 2020 Demoocratic Nomination How Pete Buttigieg Could Win The 2020 Democratic Nomination

It’s been fixed but people will still get sporadic issues over the next few hours, unfortunately DNS issues will still take like 24 hours to fully resolve even after you fix them. They should get less and less frequent over time though.

We got a setting wrong while changing something and so it did this. We know what the problem is though, so it shouldn’t take long to deal with.

It shows up and works on the Temple skin too for the record, you just have to hover over someone's name to see the full version of the profile.

Some interesting stuff this season already. Just started watching Dororo and it's very promising so far. youtube.com/watch?v=6okszfPBpTI

Good game everyone. A bit quiet and nobody really pushed anyone for roles or anything like that, so we were able to coast by fairly smoothly.

Was the day not over 40 minutes ago? When’s end of day today?

Speaking of which, did we have a number in mind for tonight? lol

Everyone should get their votes in, hard to move on otherwise

Based on voting records and such I'm still iffy on [vote]GuardianFIN[/vote] If I'm alone on that by end of day I'll move to something more viable.

Just woke up, will read through

Here's a list of remaining players: 1. RealmWings 4. zoraluigi 6. Sabbo 7. GuardianFin 9. DLR 11. Gazooks 12. Cody 13. unabletable 14. Gregarious DLR (Biggles) is the biggest mystery to me but has had mitigating circumstances as far as activity. A few others feel like they're coasting also, but I'll give them the chance to post during the upcoming American prime time period while I sleep, and then be back for the last couple of hours as usual.

I could probably benefit from showing my working more often, as my maths teachers always used to say, but basically, I switched my vote to Monika quickly because moving the vote away from a Doctor claim is a no-brainer for me. Doctor is such a regularly-seen role that if it's being faked there should be a doctor elsewhere who can counterclaim, or die later in the game and reveal the fake. It's never 100% without GM confirmation, and it's true that Gazooks was 100% going to die that day without a…

As far as having a bodyguard and a doctor in the same game setup it's relatively common, since a bodyguard is only like 1/3rd as useful as a doctor, due to only being useful in some situations. Most of the time you're trading one town life for another town life, leading to a net gain of 0 for the town. It mostly comes in handy when e.g. the cop's already claimed and the doctor's dead and they need to stall for time to make the cop to live as long as possible. A setup where a bodyguard is the onl…

Table you're not going to get the information about korokpeach's inspiration because korokpeach is dead

It's always tough to find good information from the vote when we haven't voted out a Mafia yet - the closest thing we have to good information is anyone who Mordred voted for at end of day, or anyone who voted for Mordred at end of day (though even that's still flimsy, but it increases our chances of a hit). Based on that info, Mordred voted for Dr.Gazooks on Day 1, and Monika on Day 2, though obviously Day 2 only had two voting options and everyone picked Monika unanimously.

Well it might just be flavour text, but according to the death post, korokpeach was the one who killed Mordred. Modkills generally get mentioned explicitly. Edit: No I misread the post, it doesn't actually say it, my mistake. I read this part wrong: "You go to find the person who killed this fiend and congratulate them.. only to find another dead as well."

To be honest I wasn't paying attention and selected 19 again lol, well all works out I guess

Average age stats based on the forums as a whole would be skewed because the forums have been around for 15 years, but not sure in terms of currently active users.

[unvote]dr.gazooks[/unvote] [vote]monika[/vote] Don't have anything in particular against Monika, but that was a Doctor claim so not going to chase Gazooks for now.

Quiet day, but at this point there are only two voting options for the day, so get your votes in if you haven’t.

Activity low today as mentioned in the hub. I realise gerudoyoshi only gave us a revelation with like 10 minutes to go and most people didn't get a chance to react, but letting a lynch go through after a tracker claim is still poor town play, so I agree with pressuring the people who remained on the wagon if we don't have somewhere better to spend our time. I believe Dr.Gazooks is the last one of those three to not give a response so far, hence my vote. [vote]Dr.Gazooks[/vote]

It's my birthday today so I've been mostly unavailable. Should still have some time to post near the end of the day.

Morning all. Any new information to work from today?

Half an hour left, if you feel like your current lynch suggestion isn't likely to go anywhere today I'd suggest finding a new home for your vote. I feel like I've gotten an adequate response from GuardianFIN, and RealmWings has also shown up to make a new contribution and vote, so I'm on the fence about if there's a good place to move at the moment.

Notwithstanding any non-voters that I missed, the votes should currently look like this gerudoyoshi (3): Zoraluigi, Fin, Dr.Gazooks Realmwings (2): Sabbo, GregariousTree unabletable (2): Monika, gerudoyoshi Fin (2): Cody, korok Gazooks (1): Mordred GregariousTree (1): Realmwings Monika (1): Big Daddy Biggles No Lynch (1): theunabletable

@RealmWings @theunabletable @GuardianFIN @Dr.Gazooks @gerudoyoshi You're all on the voting list right now, what are your thoughts? Why shouldn't we vote for you? Where do you think we should be heading instead in this last hour of the day?
