Ty Halderman is back: /newstuff is full of WAD's!

[funduke]

Just in case, somebody hasn't noticed it yet:
There's new stuff in /newstuff again!
... No oldies! ;)

Greetings
Funduke

Wonderful news!

[wildweasel]

Though have any been sent or uploaded? Last I heard they would be diverted during a period after all these dire issues.

There is a new subfolder in -/-n-e-w-s-t-u-f-f- /incoming with my jewels:
ftp://archives.3dgamers.com/pub/idgames/incoming/funduke_wads/
I don't know, what exactly Mr. Halderman is planning with them, but i know, that he want to avoid frustration of the reviewers.

Ah, thanks. In /incoming, you mean.

I suppose the idea is to either put them on hold or to pass them from incoming to their respective directories directly.

A subfolder in newstuff with old new stuff could be a not so bad idea, actually, although it would make Ty have to doublecheck all the wads when moving them from incoming to newstuff or newstuff/old.

my god... it's full of wads!

[wildweasel]

Oh wow, I pity whoever has to review this week...looks like lots of big ones!

[Chrono_T]

I think it's because you upload a lot of wads that are like 1994 doom. I don't mine them though.

[Guardian]

Yay, Ty Haldeman lives!

There are some rereleases.

Nimrod, Silent Steel and Resurrection of Chaos are all updates to the existing versions.

/NEWSTUFF MUST LIVE

Good news, I may be uploading something soon...

[wildweasel]

Oh hey, I noticed that the next Newstuff Chronicles is going to be #250. Score.

[SyntherAugustus]

hooray ns250!

Thank you, incredibly bad timing!

I don't have enough time to check out twenty-eight zips, but I'll see how many I can do today.

[Bloodshedder]

I'm not expecting them all to be done today. Oh, and I hope duncan doesn't start reviewing them all too...

[SulfurOccult]

pass them out to multiple reviewers would be my imediat thought. good luck however, and its great news! all hail Halderman *butt kisses*

[leileilol]

if all else fails break out tom_d

[Ty Halderman]

FYI, I'm going to hold off on merging any additional incoming updates since my mass merge. Next week additional current stuff that has come in since then will go in for #251.

Then I'll do all the Funduke and nothing else at once (so someone who doesn't mind 1994 should be the reviewer for #252, I'd think...). I'll probably timestamp all those the same since upload order doesn't matter and it'll be easier to tell which they are.

Then #253+ will be "normal" as I'll be back home on the 20th October (Yay!)

I won't normally be separating out older wads--that was a hassle and hopefully Funduke didn't upload anything current because I just looked for his name in the txt files to segregate.

*sigh* you could have fecking told me *weeps* I've gone and done them all now!!!!
What do I do!? It's all written up and everything!

[Murdoch]

Never hurts to have a second set of opinions duncan. If the other guy's done some or all I say post them both.

And an early happy homecoming to you Ty. Hope it all goes smooth.

[mystery8]

Excellent news.

If there's two sets of Reviews for the NewStuff, post them both. Should be interesting seeing how they compare.
