Seawolf contributed a lot of stuff, which you can browse through. I put some of it up but didn't have time to organize all of it. Two additional important details:

Zeus did some stuff in the Antioch section and fought the HTML image demons for 90 mins before giving up on adding his avatar to this post. Fortunately, Magnum had a +40 Sword of Hypertext in his deck and has successfully slain them.

Ba-da-bing. Some things:

But the domain is pretty now.

Oh, and Eras did a bunch of stuff.

Here's an update for anyone who cares...

(*crickets*)

...or in any case, for my own sake in getting everything organized. Here's all the interesting stuff that's up:

As for the next iteration of this site, its necessity is being re-evaluated. Most likely, I'll get this site working on Avatar's web space again (with all the content transferred), making periodic tweaks to the engine as necessary, and then, y'know, find better uses of my time than rewriting this site every month. I've recognized that this site exists more of an archive than anything people will be actively interested in, so I think this system is good enough. But we'll see.

Welcome to the temporary Antioch Forever page. The core engine is up, the content isn't. That's where you come in, y'see.

Brief overview of how the system works: You are free to edit any page. Even this one. But don't edit this one. If you want to play around with it and can't think of any constructive means of doing it, take it to the Sandbox. (To prevent abuse of the system, your IP will be logged and made publicly available, and all pages can be restored to previous versions by anyone.)

To create a new page, simply link to it. I.e., if you wanted to add the Great VSP/WASTE Saga, you'd click the Fiction link up at the menu above, edit it, add [[The Great VSP/WASTE Saga]] by typing "The Great VSP/WASTE Saga" surrounded by double brackets, and click on the handy question mark next to it to get an equally handy edit page. All recent changes will be logged on the, uh, RecentChanges page, so keep an eye on that for the newest content.

Logging in is unnecessary. To create a new account, by the way, click on Preferences. To log in, you must use your user ID and not your user name. Yeah, this system sucks. The next one'll probably be linked to your forum account.

If you need to upload a file to use in your page, use the following FTP login:

Host: bluelight.homedns.org
Port: 21
User: antioch
Password: forever

And the files will end up in the "files/" subdirectory.

(3 Nov 2003 Update: No, not really.)

It's a bit rough around the edges, but dine and I are rewriting the guts of it in PHP, and Phalanx has already completed an über-sexy new design for it. That one shouldn't take as long to get up. Try not to worry about the limitations of this one, since it won't be sticking around for very long (do give me your suggestions, though; in fact, here's a Suggestions Box). For now, feel free to contribute whatever you want (all the content from will be ported over to the new one).
