A New home for the SCI Community

[Cloudee1]

With the slow trimming of the Mega-Tokyo forums by DF for reasons of his own, several of the MT staples are finding new homes. First the OS-Developers made a move over to chase's site, now there is talk of AGI and SCI moving to Chris's AGI site. While I support the AGI community and consider them part of the SCI family 
I have a fear that SCI will get lost in the deluge of AGI info found at Chris's site. In an attempt to grow the sci community on its own standings, These forums were born.

Welcome to a brand new SCI geared community, while I would like to have a close relationship with the AGI community I think we can support and expand our own community rather than hanging out in somebody elses home. The two communities will always be closely interlinked by their enjoyment of Classic Sierra adventure games, and Chris's continuing hosting of fan-made games of both types ensures a string of contact between the two communities. AGI members who are looking to step up to the best of 1989 technology, or fellow SCI users who are just looking for someone who can help them make their game, you have found your new home for SCI.

With that I would like to welcome any and all who are interested in Sierra's Creative Interpreter and the games that can be played with it.

Thanks for the new home

Hey Doan, finally an sci guy signed up.  Great.

Hey Doan in the game section, would you please be so kind as to describe your game and demo that you have released and link to them, Ultimately we are probably going to have a sticky in there with a list to all of the games that are known about, so it would probably be best to intro  each it's own thread...

I am trying to give everyone a chance to put up their own words for their own products. Like with Troflip and scicompanion, Brian with scistudio (I doubt he'll ever show though so I guess I'll have to do it) and you with your games.

But welcome, hopefully we can get everyone over here and continue on with business as usual.  Let me know what you think about the theme, additions, suggestions.

[Doan Sephim]

Great idea! I'll go do that. Thanks for putting this all together!

[Cloudee1]

I'm only doing it because it's a community I'm a part of, and one I want to be proud of. Thanks Doan for supporting it and also listing your games. I am confident that before long, we can grow this sci communtiy larger than the old Mega-Tokyo forums allowed.

Wonderful thing you've done, dude. Thank you. Had no idea about the whole Mega-Tokyo site going down. I love this new place. It's a shame all that information from the old forums will be lost but what can you do. At least we have a place to stay!

Thanks again.

[Cloudee1]

I don't think it will ever be "Lost", I think Chris is going to archive it, I am not positive but I do know that he is getting a copy and he likes to save stuff 

[MusicallyInspired]

Sweet then! All is not lost..

[Cloudee1]

He has already signed up, and I'm sure he'll keep us filled in whatever gets decided.

Cloudee1,

Thanks for setting up a new forum! 

I am guessing that getting in touch with Brian Provinciano to change the 'forum' link on his page is probablly out.  I know he dosen't watch what is going on in the forums too much any more, but I *do* know he had a direct link there.  Maybe he will notice before the link goes "dead"...

-- the " other tro' "

[Cloudee1]

Yeah, I really have no idea of way to get in touch with Brian about changing any of his links, or of even letting him know about the move. I am hoping for that very reason, and all the tutorial links in the scistudios already downloaded, that DF will put up and keep up a redirect link for a while like with chase's OS dev stuff now.
