BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

And the crowd goes wild! /o/

On a different note, wasn’t the BlogSpot blog accidentally deleted?

Yes, the player “Gobleteer” was deleting his BlogSpot account one day, long after he left the game, and misread an “Are you sure you want to delete all blogs associated with this account?” question.

It’s pretty much searchable in archive.org, though. We should work out if there’s an easy way to scrape all the content out of archive.org and host it on this domain somewhere.

I’ve requested an archive.org retrieval from this tool for recovering lost websites, I’ll see what I get.

That would be nice.

I’m currently retrieving blognomic.blogspot.com using that same tool, and it’s working fine up to now. =)

Lol wheres Wak when ya need him? He’s our resident historian.

Darknight: You’re thinking of Qwaz.

Oh? Eh, either or.

Yeah, I’m not necessarily buying the “switch didn’t happen” thing (there were multiple proposals at the time concerning the issue, some of which definitely passed) but I would be glad to see what ais is talking about. I don’t feel that we need to be concerned at this time.

@Qwazukee: the issue is that the proposals passed in the new nomic, not the old one. But it should all be sorted out now, I think. (The Switch eventually happened informally, with people abandoning the old nomic and moving to the new one, rather than formally with a changeover.)

The old nomic passed a proposal in the end merging itself into the nomic on this site. That should have taken care of this issue?

Didn’t this cover it?

@Kevan: IIRC, there was a rule at the time that prevented itself being repealed by anything but the Switch Document, so that proposal either had no effect (in which case this is necessary), or failed to repeal the rule in question (in which case this is still necessary). It’s so hard to match up historical rulesets with historical proposals, though, so I may be wrong.
