> If it seems at all likely that there is some otherwise unsavable content on the site ...There is. We set up the "echo" to the parlor from the Yahoo! coryphaeus group in June 2005, when the TAPCIS forum went poof. We did not move to the current Google group until April 2007.Yahoo! has shut down their groups and I'm not sure if they have ever provided the archive to Paul that he requested. So at this point, the Tapcis forum represents the only(?) available full copy of rounds 1614 (YARFA) to 1803 (GOSSAN-GOZZAN). Google archives start at round 1804.I'll be happy to pitch in for maintenance as well, maybe even use a "real" web host to do something better than the free dixonary.net hack we've got.

Well, I am deep in geezer-hood myself. Not implying that you are by any means the same.If it seems at all likely that there is some otherwise unsavable content on the site, we should surely be able to gin up some kind of informal GoFundMe among the players. And that includes those, like me, who do not actively play (only occasionally for me).It would be a pittance per person to raise a year’s worth of funding.If that can’t be worked out, I will front one year in order to push back the curtain.

If there are archived messages there that aren't available anywhere else, I'd like to make sure we can download a copy. Some day, when I have a couple weeks free, I'd love to do an in-depth analysis of the rounds, including word choice in crafting definitions and/or when voting for definitions.Best,Ryan

It looks like no one has left any messages since 2015, and darned few since 2001.

Hi, Judy! Good to see you again.
We initially set up the dixonary game to "echo" into the Parlor at tapcis.com and a few players used it during the transition, but I don't think anyone uses that site any more. I can't even remember my login credentials!
You're probably safe to pull the plug.
If anyone has a special fondness for the tapcis.com domain I'd probably be happy to take over renewing that and point it to our dixonary group.

Gentle people, I have been quietly paying for this website in the
background for years while not participating in its activities. It's
time for others to either take over or for the website to close. I will
pay for the web hosting through the end of May 2021. At that point,
somebody else needs to step up. I'm happy to transfer the account --
it's a whole whopping $9.99 a month. But as I begin my 71st year and now
fully retired, those who use it need to take care of it.
Lemme know. You can reach me directly at jgru...@gmail.com
