Mike, do you have a regular timetable by which you update the archive of Slash's AD&D game on your site? Last Wed's entry ends on a bit of a cliff hanger, and I'm incredibly curious about what will happen next. I can't wait to find out more details of Mission's relationship with this woman.

I don't actually have a regular timetable. The way I'm currently archiving is almost as labor intensive as it can get as I have to manually cut and paste everything by hand (fortunately I have a small script to HTML-ize it). I tried to write a cgi script to do everything but I couldn't make it smart enough so I gave up.

So the long and short is that I do the updates when I have a free moment at work and am not feeling too lazy. But I will be adding three or four days' worth by the close of business today (Pacific Time).

Oh, and as long as we're in a thread talking about my website, I'll take this opportunity to invite everyone to check it out, including the forum, which is no longer a practical joke.

[Edit: and in case anyone missed the location of the archives for Slash's game: http://www.sakeriver.com/game/

It's a pretty cool site, by the way. I had a lot of fun reading through your movie reviews.

By the way, what's the significance of the site's name?

It's a loose translation of my last name.

There may be a bit of confusion as to what exactly the first word is. It's not "sayk" as in, "For Bob's sake!" It's "sah-keh" (or, if you must "sah-kay" but never "sah-kee"), as in rice wine.

I just assumed the latter. I wondered if you were a big sake fan or something. If you were too big of a sake fan, that would have explained why you hadn't posted any of the AD&D material this week!

Actually, I can't stand the stuff. It's a good thing the cups are so little. I'd be completely unable to deal with a bigger portion.

[Edit: Oh, and I just posted 9/4-9/8 to the archives.]

The main archive page was getting a little crowded, so I reorganized it. The current month's posts are now on the main page in descending order, with links to previous months below.

too late, saxon. I already associate the name of your website with an abudance of rice wine. [Wink]

Hmmm... If not for the whole ALDH mutation thing, I might even try to get over the awful, awful taste. (Slash has been pointing out that I'm offending the ghosts of thousands of dead samurai every time I say that. It's even more ironic when you consider that my ancestors almost certainly include both samurai and sake brewers.)

Try being of Irish descent and allergic to alcohol.

Hey, Mike, with Slash being sick, I assume that the AD&D game is on hold for the moment. Am I right in thinking that I should just settle back and wait for a week or two before checking the archive on sakeriver.com?

Yeah I've got a turn or two that I haven't posted yet, plus some random kibitzing, but I think you can assume no forward motion until Slash is better.

I expected as much, but it's good to know.
