Link archive for old DL threads. (From the old board)

[superaielman]

Interesting threads from the past. I'm linking these roughly in order.

As an aside, I can't find the topic where we set rankings to be every three seasons. I guess it was just tradition that caught on. Also: The rankings/bootings are listed a season ahead of where we were at the time, since they don't take effect till  he next season.

[Lezard Valeth]

A big thank you for the archive.

[Sir Donald 3.2]

I'm thinking the archive was linked to the old boards, eh?

Figures...

[DjinnAndTonic]

Out of curiosity - are any of these topics backed up anywhere? There's a few of the ranking topics and policy discussions that I'd like to read.

[Lady Ashe]

I would like to second that sentiment. Lot of stuff there I'm interested in looking at.

[superaielman]

Not as of now, sorry.

[Dark Holy Elf]

It's a matter of waiting for someone who has access to the old forums to have the patience to go dig them out, or for them to re-open. Not sure when that will happen. Hopefully in the not-too-distant-future, since yeah, I'd definitely like to have access to them myself.
