TSF: If I type in theforce.net on my computer will nothing come up? Will I get redirected?

That depends on how it's set up. Could be one or the other if I'm recalling right.

TSF: So forgive my stupidity, but when this move takes place what exactly happens?

Don't feel stupid, I don't think anyone really knows yet sad

If I type in theforce.net on my computer will nothing come up? Will I get redirected? I haven't got enough knowledge for them to do this to me! Sorry...trying not to panic!

My understanding is that typing in theforce.net will still take you to the new server, and I think even "boards.theforce.net" will take you to the boards. However, we learned that the urls for the threads will not be the same, so everything we have linked in bios, sigs, indexes, posts, will all be broken tired It will take a long time to change it all back around.

Yeah it could be a mess but there again it could be relatively straight forward. I think Yoda is right though - that there will be a formula for changing the old to the new url. Think positive. happy

Well - I will try and start following the links on Lonewolf's PM and at least recording them. It was only some of the poems and viggies from memory that I lost - none of the stories. Whew! I don't know if it's my computer or the fact I have an old version of IE - but one or the other stops me being able to deal with long posts. It might be IE actually as I remember my even older version wouldn't load the profile page. It's a nuisance because it loads so slowly, especially if it's a long post. And I can't select and copy large chunks of text. sad

*saunters in*

Remember me? Once upon a time I was here an aweful lot. Then I disappeared into Alexander and LotR fandom. But I'm all back now. Seems a little typical, but after seeing the movie I'm once again all star wars fan.

*sets down chair and gets drink*

Sorry, I haven't been here in ages, but I'm all caught up on the interviews. All I can say is wow. [face_impressed] Fascinating stuff from both Thrawn and TSF. Great interviews, you two. applause I'd go into detail if I had any idea where to begin, but, sadly, I don't. Needless to say, it's always nice to read where fellow authors, A/T authors in this case, are coming from and how they approach their work. Anyway, thanks for taking the time to share your insights with the rest of us. happy

Now I must go begin to read all the A/T related material I've been missing these past months! Dark Paths may be the death of me, but I'm going to attempt it soonish. I began it ages ago, but DRL got horribly in the way. sad

TSF: I've tried to start Sith Inssurection a few times, but must admit the size is daunting me.

That's completely understandable! It's a monster, and its only grown since you posted. shock To be frank, I'm always shocked when people jump into long running epics, as I myself have often shied away from things because of their size.

YK: Given the number of OC's in JDH3's fic, and the way "Dark Paths" moves, it might actually be beneficial to start late since you could read it all as fast as you wanted. Either way, their two of the best fics I've ever read.

You flatter me, my friend. blush hugs

Okay, now it’s time to push this thread up so the rest of the A/T fans out there, both young and old, can find it again. wink


JD.

I do the opposite actualy. I am cursed with the ability to read fast cry . I like to have a little chunk of story to sink my teath into and get lost in, this also makes a fic easier to criteque.

We need to get something going for this again!

Anyone interested in being interviewed or interviewing someone? Have any ideas on who should be interviewed? I have a couple people in mind and I'll interview someone again if no one is interested...

I'll talk to Tahi and see if we can get something else going. A challenge or activity? Any ideas? happy

A challenge would be fun. grin I haven't done a challenge in a long while. If anyone comes up with a good idea, I'd try it. happy

I'm not alone in thinking you should be interviewed, YK...

And, a challenge might be fun!!

We could even have a challenge to do an interview-style scenario involving A/T?

Yay, other people! tongue Thanks for your enthusiasm, JoD and Thrawn happy

I've got someone lined up for an interview so hopefully we'll have one in the future, and I have another person in mind for the next one after that.



Thrawn: I'm not alone in thinking you should be interviewed, YK...

I did it a couple years ago in the old thread. I'd like to give some others a chance.

We could even have a challenge to do an interview-style scenario involving A/T?

That's not a bad idea thinking

I just saw this thread and gaped. grin

I'm such a Tahiri fan, (my old nickname was Tahiri wink ) and Anakin is my fav. Solo!
I'm writing a sad, in some ways, A/T fic called Death Defied
and it's kinda prolonged so you WANT Alema to die so... shock NOT TELLING THE PLOT! *zips her lip*

Anyways, it's a really twisted plot bunny, all that jazz. grin
I just wanted to say I'm watching this thread. hypnotized

Hi there, Courtney. Yup - we all agree with you that Anakin and Tahiri are tops.

What do you guys think about organising an on-line discussion about the A/T threads? It would be great if we could become a bit more proactive - and the problem as always is TIME. What would be cool is if we had more people involved with specific jobs - preferably people who don't have too many DRL things likely to explode in their faces on a regular basis. (In other words - no kids! LOL) Seriously - if we could spread the jobs around a bit, we'd be able to get a lot more done.

For instance - it would be nice to have some regular writers for the A/T Resource thread who could write short reviews, do interviews and maybe do some adverts for new stories. It would be fun to run the thread like a kind of mini-magazine. happy

I'd suggest AIM but my AIM always plays up, so maybe we could just agree on a time and open a discussion thread in Resource. Then all we have to do is get as many A/Ters as possible to log in at that time. My work schedule from December 9th on gives me Tuesday-Thursday off, so on any of those nights I could stay up without it being a problem. (My time zone is such that I am about 18 hours ahead of EST, and about 21 ahead of PST.)

What do you guys think? Workable or not?
