Great to see you've made it to 100, Gnomon!
This side of the water, you'd have got a letter from the Queen!

Just thought I should say that anything I've subbed I have both Word and MHTML files of in their finished state, so if you'd like copies of anything that's vanished in the last two years, I'm happy to send copies of these to you.

Hi Bluebottle. I keep copies of most of my stuff too, but I slipped up in the last two years or so.
As far as I can remember, I'm only missing two entries - Minecraft and the final version The Crow Road (I have an early version). If you have either of those, I'd love to have them.

Oh, I see the edited version of Napier's Bones is also missing from the site, although I think I have a copy of it on my home PC.

I'm happy to send my copies of 'Introduction to Minecraft' and 'The Crow Road' to you, but I didn't sub Napier's Bones so I'm sorry, I don't have a copy of that one. But what I do have, where would you like me to send them? You can maybe tell me your e-mail address (possibly via Messenger) or I could send you the files on Messenger, whatever you prefer.

Have you heard yet what has happened? Was there any Guide Editor announcement?
Is there any chance of a later version of the site being restored?

Frustratingly I've not heard anything more, other than that there was a cyber attack and h2g2 was one of numerous websites impacted. I'm assuming that the longer things are left the less likely it is that there'll be a data refresh that restores the missing data, but that is just an assumption.

I've played a lot of Minecraft since I wrote the entry so I may edit it a little before re-submitting it to Peer Review. The Crow Road, on the other hand, doesn't need to be changed.

I've sent you the entries now - if you think they need to be tweaked and updated or not is of course up to you, but they'll be very welcome back on h2g2. Did you keep a copy of the Napier's bones entry?
