Jaxxoon R Posted April 27, 2015 Maybe this is all part of his evil plan to have the /Newstuff backlog completely empty for once in its existence. 0 Share this post Link to post

How delightfully post-modernist! You're not actually surprised by that, are you? I sincerely hope he's doing well. Maybe he's just on vacation..? 0 Share this post Link to post

Snakes Posted April 27, 2015 Maybe E2M2's victory broke him and this is a form of silent protest. A deliberate sabatoge of idgames to display his power. J'accuse, Ty! 0 Share this post Link to post

You're nearly there... but I was kind of thinking something along the lines that all his work on the archives started to open a gateway to hell... and the straw that broke the camel's back was E2M2's victory (thx Obama), basically long story short he ended up opening a teleporter to E2M2 and he got telefragged by a crate. 0 Share this post Link to post

Zulk RS Posted April 28, 2015 I'm probably going to get a lot of hate for this but... I believe that we should always hope for the best and prepare for the worst in any uncertain situation. I also hope that Ty is fine and well. With that being said, where is Ty? Has there been any word from him? Has he done this before in the past? Supposing he is dead (I really hope that isn't the case), what happens next? Does someone new take charge of Id games? Who? What happens to Newstuff and all the user made content? What happens to Doom? Please don't take this the wrong way, I'm just concerned. 0 Share this post Link to post

Reisal Posted April 30, 2015 Does anyone know where his general location is and those here who are in proximity who might have an idea where or what happened to him? This does concern me as well. 0 Share this post Link to post

printz Posted April 30, 2015 Wait a bit. Can't someone volunteer to take over if Ty confirms that he cannot continue? Are there passwords which might get lost forever? I mean: surely Ty's /idgames job isn't that time-consuming. He took care to automate everything that was repetitive, so it should be easy enough for someone else (who is acceptably competent) to do the job. 0 Share this post Link to post

Reisal Posted May 1, 2015 Question, what will there to do if something did happen to Ty that was serious (but not fatal) and couldn't really do much more with /idgames/ anymore? Who (or group of people) will do the painstaking task of downloading everything from the archive and backing it up for the replacement? 0 Share this post Link to post
