Keep an eye out for 404's. cookie errors and the like. There are a few bugs in the top 50 reviewers and a handful of the game listings that I'm chasing down. Drop me a mail if you hit any weirdness with the contact us link in the upper right. |

So we're settled in on the new machine. Lotsa cpu and memory to spare. Now we need to grow. Tell everyone you know that we're back! And not just as a static snapshot, but as a living breathing community, a growing archive of old and new games, both unappreciated and the forgotten classics, and even the overlooked modern masterpiece. We've got the framework, now we just need to grow the community and dataset. So spread the word, tell people that Home of the Underdogs is back from the dead. |

The question came up on the forums about what "qualifies" as an Underdog. I'd like to think it's any game. Anything that you played and loved, popular or unpopular, any platform. Anything you can write about, not in a strictly analytical sense, not as a description of the game, but a game that you can write about that you feel strongly about. A game that reminds you why you play games in the first place. That's the point of the new site, the user additions, the community content setup. This is a platform for people who love these games and want to share their memories and opinions with other fans. So what's an Underdog? Whatever we say it is. Add listings, add reviews, and let's grow this archive far beyond the original 5400 games. |

So I'm working on the double files, as well as tracking down a few missing bits and bobs that got lost in the transfer. I'm also finishing up a faster method for me to batch import so that should help. Finally, I'll put together a listing of the games that are missing files along with the naming convention. That way people can simply blast up the missing bits and the automator can hook them up to the necessary listings. |

If you can, spread the word, far and wide. Home of the Underdogs is back. Yeah, it looks a bit different, yeah, it still has more to work on, but it's back. |

So I rolled the new files and rebuild into the fixing process. I added a few thousand more files and things are mostly working. If you hit a 404 for a game, please use the contact form and tell me what game. A handful of files fell through the cracks with the new integrate. |
