Hi all
It's quite sad to see Deacon's Tomb is no longer. It's also almost impossible to download any of the competition maps from here anymore as most links have expired - and there were some really great ones.
Does anyone have a collection of such lost maps to share or links to any collections I'm not aware of? It would be a pity to lose them all for good.

Well, I still got about 5-7000 maps on CD´s. I think about 90% or more of Deacons Tombs maps and maybe a 1000 more... But it will take forever to upload, and I don´t have a place to upload it to... -W1  |

I'm sure I can find some place to host them  for the Quake 2 Cafe, even better would be to burn your whole vault to disks, everything you have collected over your years of Q2 playing as well have collected from being a member of the Q2C. That goes for anyone else as well willing to open up there personal vault. Post here or pm me if you want to contribute. |

Well, it is on many disks all ready, but making copies of them all and sending them from Denmark is something to do in a summerholiday i think. But I saw that DD has found the Decons Tomb, so it don´t get much better than that. -W1 |

I think that makes it a pretty quick discussion, now its about participation. I'll even help cover costs for shipping and materials needed if anyone requires this. Anybody??? |
