this is a test topic and will be removed before the doors open

Notice the 2 ways we can put the old archive boards. Either as a sticky topic (my preference) or else back out on the same level as the main board list. But the 2nd way clutters up the board if they'll all be listed twice.
-
I think Stinky-ing the old board is probably the best option. Are we going to just keep the current (old) boards or are you going to/able to revert to the board from a few months back?
-
I prefer the sticky method also.
Didn't get an email that my account was activated, though I did get a registration confirmation email.
I hope that I won't have to do Captcha every time I post...
-
Good to be back... the captcha is annoying... I could hardly read what the letters were on registration and certainly don't want to do it for every post! :D

I won't be able to revert the old boards. The sneaky hacker who corrupted the database made so much of a mess it's basically impossible without an army of trained monkeys and 4 or 5 years. We'll just link to it and mark it read-only. Of course members can copy & paste old threads into here or link to old ones to carry on discussions. I'll post a how-to for that.
-
the captcha is hard, but it deters spammers. there is one level harder actually so I thought I'd go easy on you guys :)
You only have to do the captcha the first 2 or 3 times then you can post at will.

That's not too bad then :) My eyes aren't what they used to be... I think it must be age!

-----------------
There are 10 more authors from the old member list.
Should I wrote them the message, too?
-
It has to be said, Kettlefish has done more for the community during the downtime than everyone else combined. She has been a great help to me during the past few months.

I sent to the next authors messages:
- DasViktor

Then I have to write to the Founding Members.

Thanks Scott.

I sent to the next authors messages:
- Cappy
- Jabberwocky
- GameJunkieJim
- ShadowP68
----------------
The last two - what should I do with them?
"LittleMisfit" - every time the forum says an other name
"original login - who is that?
-
I'm not sure who those two are, so they probably haven't been around in forever. Don't worry about it.

Scott, Gantry,
do you need some help?
-
sent you a pm
-
What are we doing with "obervet03"?
He is working at the CAR.
-
We need to get him in here, and we need to give him some kind of special status.
-
is he an author? or working on Matt's CAR outside of CC?
-

This old forum doesn't work for a long time.
So obervet03 and I wrote about 50 emails (translation of the German rules, my clarifications with HiG - but the last month without a beautiful forum) - now we have the best CAR since ever.
I will write him an email.
-
obervet03 = Christopher Ober
He took over as official editor of the Complete Annotated Rules from Matt.

Hi Scott,
I like the facebook Short-News at the first page "Home"....
and I like all the other little things at that page...
I think Moritz Brunnhofer would say: I love the forum in a modern style....
-
Some of the thanks goes to Bixby who was gracious enough to call me (long distance) and spent 39 minutes showing me around his SMF forum. He's been administrating SMF forums for a long time, and it was great to get his advice on various things. That "home page" thing was one of the add-ons he suggested to me.
-
I the old forum I saw the other member who was looking at a forum section.
Here I can't see any members in the forum section - or do I need new glasses?
-
You don't see anybody else in the section because you're the only person there. We have only 8 members so far.
-
At the old forum the people can register.
I thought it is closed for such things.
I can't write there any PM - that is closed.
-
That's interesting considering all the e-mails I was getting in the past about not being able to register.
-
Yes Scott,
but today one of my Carcassonne-Forum members
like to come also to CarcassonneCentral.
But the member registered at the old forum...
-
I had issues registering because of the question: "Which animal has claws, kittens or lambs?" Due to me being a non-native English speaker I could not think of such an animal. Luckily after 6 or 7 guesses the page refreshed and showed another question.
Perhaps it is best to remove this question from the form. Also, I am very curious now what the answer should have been...!
-
Hi Arvid84,
I had yesterday the same problem.
I don't know the answer.
But with me was the same what you told.
You are now online.... :)
-
Ah, I see how that can be read incorrectly. I'll change the comma to a colon. (Gantry wrote the questions.)
-
For the non English speaking people is it not easy.
I thought we become some questions about the world of carcassonne...
-
I'll see what I can come up with.
-
Ok, I changed all the questions to things that Carcassonne fans should be able to answer.
-
Scott, the people are a little bit confused with the registration.
They don't know that the "password" need not only
the small letters.
Here in the new forum the "Password" need big and small letters.
A combination with big and small letters and numbers is possible.
Should I post this at the old forum, too?
-
If people are confused, then by all means post something about it. I found the error message fairly self-explanatory when I tried to register with an all lowercase password, but maybe it's one of those language issues?
-

That's it.. ;D
-
I wrote again an email to mjharper.
mjharper has to link his FAQ back to the new forum.
The FAQ are having a link to the old forum.

it is self-explanatory... if not, google translator will help...
(some question were hard for non-natives but you changed this, so ok...)

Kettlefish - thank you so much for your note. I have been away from internet contact all weekend so I was not aware of the new startup. I am so excited that it is finally here though! I cannot wait to get some creative juices flowing again! Thank you for all your hard work you have done through this process - and thank you to Gantry and Scott and all!

Thank you Carcking,
I hope the snowstorm was not to heavy...
