The Old School Otaku Lounge

Say, Todd, do you have backup hardware? What if some of that old equipment goes down?

I'll have to learn how to time via Aegisub somehow. I use it to edit all my works.

Old thread, I know, but wondering if anyone knows anything else? Todd, you used to release your scripts on that early version of the internet... know of any places that might have a backup? By today's standards, they take up zero space. Shit, you could probably fit every fan-subbed script on a thumb drive. O,o

The only scripts I have come from the Berkeley Anime book I found at an Animazement a couple of years ago, which is pretty detailed for a published book:

I'd have to track down the people responsible for the scripts we used back in the day. I don't want to just scan them though as they might be in electronic form already. More work...

I think some of Doi Hitoshi's older scripts/synopses from usenet are on his site (doi.usagi.org, IIRC). They're organized in his series collections, so you'd have to dig through those pages, rather than being archived together. I remember reading through his file for the first Touch movie and it was the motivation to seek out the film; glad I did because it became one of my favorite films. The ones I remember reading don't read like scripts (at least what I would think of as reading scripts) but more a summary of action with specific pieces of dialog described in English; files range in length from subject and duration of media - an episode of Dragonball Z might be a few paragraphs, where as the Touch took me like a half hour to get through.
