Oh, yeah! I have seen it in the past but that was very rare and a long time ago.

Re: Old spinoffs archive

Is it me, or it would be great if the wikia got updated about this spin-off?

 

[Jukica]

Re: Old spinoffs archive

It's time to refresh this topic so we can save informations for some spinoffs.
(we found the way how to save them)

[center:3haqkb1d]BIG ANNOUNCEMENT[/center:3haqkb1d]

All credit here to Jochen, Jukica, Adam, Liam and anyone else who discovered waybackmachine long before I did. I'm just sharing the great news!

Basically, thanks to this website waybackmachine, we're able to access a large part of the forum and contest information we'd lost from the old forum, after it disappeared last October. Unfortunately (well, I say unfortunately, but of course it's better than nothing xD) the information we can get from this only goes up to August 2008 (~NSC 26). Nevertheless, this means we still have 25 editions of NSC and plenty more spinoffs back that we thought we had lost for ever.

So, check it out! And feel free to play around with different links to see if you can find more specific stuff

To get straight to the forum index:
http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://esctodayforum.phpbbserver.com/

As you can probably tell, to check the archives for more specific links, replace the "http://esctodayforum.phpbbserver.com/" with the more detailed link
e.g. http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://esctodayforum.phpbbserver.com/nsc-nation-song-contest-f21/
You can find different stuff by checking different links so try exploring

All information there should be permanent, so reposting stuff here is purely for convenience, but it should be useful, so feel free to lend a hand in continuing to update our archive of old spinoffs, main editions, and other results and graphics

Seriously, I'm surprised it hasn't been posted before by people who knew I think this is an amazing goldmine of lost NSC information, and I'm really delighted that we can get back all sorts that we lost xD

THANK YOU WAYBACKMACHINE!!!

 

[94ayd]

Amaaaaaaaaazing! It's great the older spin-offs and editiosn can be found here because for the newer ones the people who have done the shows, etc. are still here and can help us.

 

[Jukica]

I'll make few more archives tonight and tomorrow.

I can add NSC NF 8 too, but unfortunately I have only the scoreboards (I didn't make the banners) but I remember some entries ...
And better news - I still have all AATW Egypt banners and scoreboards, so I'll add entries and final scoreboard soon.

 

[Liam]

:O I knew about this too, I mentioned it in a convo a long time ago, whether anyone noticed idk and I also posted it the other day (funny this thread has shown up since then ) I'm glad people are noticing it now

 

[pyryniemi]

graphics there don't work

 

[pyryniemi]

and now it says that the latest update is Jul 10, 2008

Added you to the credits xD
Apparently a good deal of people had mentioned it before, but for some odd reason it never caught on
I have a feeling though that the website was only recently updated. When it was last mentioned, most of the archives weren't available, so it wasn't considered so useful. Or, it may have simply been down at the time

pyryniemi, if you right click the "not-loading graphics" you can get the link where those images come from, and that link should work
Also, try http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://esctodayforum.phpbbserver.com/nsc-nation-song-contest-f21/, which goes up to August 08

 

[Jukica]

Here is AATW Egypt which was hosted by Magna Grecia (unfortunately without YT links)

And final scoreboard:

 

[Jukica]

And NSC NF 8 final scoreboard

Unfortunately I don't have the banners but I remember some entries ... I'll try to write them later.
