thanks for visiting Apolyton:The Book

Solver, you are not the only one- I also pormoised Dan
I suppose Iòll have to carry throught.

I have to design a course of action for the update- I have new ideas on how to update it quicker (thatàs the main reason work stopped) I idiotically decided that it might be quicker to work on it in a HTML editor rather tahn to hardcode it, and then, quickly realized it WASNT faster, but it was too later, and the code is excessively messed up.

also, I have to transfer the text to word- since JohnT was so nice to create a word document for me.

but I have a new idea, It will make the pages extremely spartan but itàll let me update quicker, do you think it would be a good idea to write it all in word, then save it as a HTML so taht it can be accessed on the internet?

would you like taht- the pages would be all text with only bold and italics (like word) and no sidebar except on the main page, but it would allow me to work quicker.

---

and yes, I have had trouble finding time with lists... Iàve been busy- I thnk Iàll start work on that again next month' but the other problems with it areù
1.= hard problem- I have to look up facts in my archive
2. easy problem' I have to start new lists (fun ) to find data... perhaps create a few graphs, etc.
3. VERY hard problem' I have to do a few interviews on the prehistory of apolyton, and no one seems willing to take one. (although dan directed me to a place where I could find some)

Iàll do my best to work on this... especially now taht I see interest has been revived.

thank you

work will probably begin in about 2 weeks...
My computer is still inaccessible.
and this oneàs keyboard is very strange... and crashes a lot but at least it works

Iàm not sure I am fully up on area 19, but i know that the perpetratros were busted after april 1st and it was started by faded glory who received 2 or 3 weeks banning and actually invited me to join 2 days before the bust (But I read my emails on the day after the bust and was thus saved from a nasty situation )

I think about 10 people were banned for various periods and only about 1 porn link was posted...

I forget who told on them? Eli??? Ecthelion???? For some reason I remember an E in his name??? oh well (apologies if the names are incorrect,)

Mr. President0 if you wish to do so, please either PM me, email me, or if you like post it here and I will copy it to the site at my earliest convienience (as my home computer is unavaliable right now, it is unlikely I will be able to manage an update, even a brief one in less than 2 weeks oh well

Okay, thank you all...

I think, (if this computer doesnt crash) I should have a new thread for me to gather info in the ot, so be prepared to look.

thanks

is that enough? or could you please tell me more

Thank you solver for submitting the details...

The webpage has been updated!

I'm not sure exactly how to go about updating it further... I have some ideas- but please place all other ideas here...

And I'll get to work on them-

However, finding old history is extremely hard- I did what I coudl with the ot thread I started and have it gathered in Chapter 3, but... It is really scattered and needs to be elaborated on and orgainzed.

But the gems of the update are:

Area 19... by solver
and the Glossary Update

Dan, I must disagree here, while archive.org is a great page, it doesn't have all those forum links. I think the OTF archive is a better place.

BTW Dan, I'm gonna finally do your interview pages today .

DarkCloud, I hope you modified my email to some kind of a story that makes sense, gotta see now.

Hmm... perhaps i did something wrong,
I though it made sense on its own, I merely formatted it a bit, changed a few mispelled words and words that did not fit, and there it was...

It's chapter 7...

Dan, I'll be sure to check it out, but it <i>would</i> be easier if people just told me the history

And dan, just so you know- it seems archive.org is messed up, the oldest apolyton link I find is Aug 2000 for the forums... when it was listed Oct 4 1999... They have problems, I noticed this before- it seems only about 5 pages for apolyton forums exist despite the high number listed.

And when I click on ceartain sections, such as AC-Fiction, the aug 2000 issue links me to Oct 2000 ???

That site is fairly useless for research... especially since most of that stuff happened AFTER I registered... actually all of it did if it took place in Aug 2000

But thanks for the suggestion...

I think i'll check out fjxorc's Toxic Waste Dump instead

I read it, quite OK... thanks for editing, my English is far from perfect.

Yeah, archive.org is great, but it has some problems with various forums, so you can learn more from our "local" archives. And talking to people, of course.

Now, I need a plan of action for things to add- I think I should add the Hall of Fame (Time for another addition ) and I need suggestions- (I'd add the information from the yearbook as Orange suggested, but for some reason, I have never found the yearbook on apolyton???)

Solver- are you on MIRC- remember the interveiw chat
I can spare about 5-10 more minutes.

Oh yes, another addition

The Apolyton Hall of Fame has been added to the site on the right toolbar

And solver, did you notice the cross-reference links? You may want to check out the hyperlinks in your Area 19 article...

Any suggestions for elaborations on the hyperlink idea?

I checked all the hyperlinks, sure. Maybe the Glossary could be split into terms (like Area 19) and names (such as Markos).

Interview? Is there one?

That sounds like a good idea, I'll put it on the list.

(My dream is one day to have all the names linked to other names as well, so that everything on the site is cross referenced for easiest navigation )
