Replying to Scribe #sir_caspian I was wanting to rewatch the DvZ content, but everything is in alphabetical order, not chronological. I'm forgetting if that mattered at all or if anyone would even have the chronological order if it did. Does anyone know more about this?
I'm 99% sure I sorted the playlist in chronological order
if I didn't I can tomorrow
It's really hard to sort chronologically on the page itself when you're bulk uploading, so I just did it via the playlists
ok nope, I forgot to do the DvZ playlist, yeah I'll put that in chronological order tomorrow
@Phijkchu_Pikachu you're going to want to watch the Rob stream
This is the last time he's been on-camera, from November 8th
Oh god
I took some screenshots too
These were the least-Rob Rob scrs I could find
he looks like (weird dated reference) old Day9 when he used to stream in his basement
that last one is just because Rusp is now cannon in Urealms
finally
he red-shifts his stream slightly I'm pretrty sure
+ the warm streamer light
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 ok nope, I forgot to do the DvZ playlist, yeah I'll put that in chronological order tomorrow

Replying to Scribe #sir_caspian Oh awesome, thanks
ok, all the DvZ playlists are ordered now
the start of the main DvZ playlist has a couple shorts, that were the first things Rob uploaded to the channel, I thought about moving them to the end or a different playlist, but left them as-is for now
There are a couple DvZ streams elsewhere on the site, but this page was a mirror of what he had uploaded to YouTube
I don't have a complete archive of the original original DvZ streams, though maybe one day I'll sort through the random ones I do have and upload those
Also, I considered for the whole site using the "original upload date" feature for all videos, but decided not to
so you'll have to live with the semi-arbitrary dates of when my upload scripts grabbed these
I think the only things I still haven't uploaded, are the non-Rob LoM videos and Rob's livestreams from 2019-2021
the livestreams are a pain because I add the stream category/games to the stream titles to be slightly less worthless
a couple times people have asked me for specific series, and that's super easy to do
I'm still impressed how much use the site gets daily, it's down from it's peak for sure
but there still is a dedicated audience for the archive, and ~200 unique people watch 1 or more videos a day
I see your bots too Regi dw
Trying to shill gambling cam sites
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 ok, all the DvZ playlists are ordered now
Wonderful, thank you.
I'm so glad people care enough to archive this stuff (honestly, backing up all URL and DvZ was one of the reasons I recently put together a NAS)
Sorta same lol,
Very young Spooky rushed to the store to get his first external HDD when twitch.tv announced they were removing vods
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 I see your bots too Regi dw
I was going to setup one just to spike the view count on a random video until u noticed but i didnt want it running
And I had a week to try to quickly download every non-broken .ts video stream Twitch had on their servers

lol
Regi, you know our master plan though
We're going to use all the bots to help market Toushin Gent
For whatever reason, Steam doesn't view them as spam bots
Replying to Regi #mythicalsquids Sell rob.art to ltt when they need more floatplane usersV
lol
Speaking of ltt, Linus is going to be a tech monkey on one of the Late Night comedy shows next week
And I think it's going to reignite the entire Internet shitting on him again
RIP
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 ok, all the DvZ playlists are ordered now
thanks a ton, spooky
i have been watching them a lot recently
ngl, I felt kind of bad when I checked and they weren't already ordered
I thought I did them the same time I did the LoM ordering/thumbnails
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 And I had a week to try to quickly download every non-broken .ts video stream Twitch had on their servers
Lol, that would have been tense. I hate having to fight against the clock to archive stuff. And something always breaks while you're doing it

very few sites/people seem to even care about preservation, big corporate sites I understand being uncaring or w/e
but the amount of times smaller things will go down out of nowhere, and leave everyone in the dark is tragic
There's a healthy balance of course, some people are a tad irrational with a compulsion to archive anything
you can only control what you can control, preserve what you care about and let the rest go
I am curios though, what sort of NAS guy are you Sir Caspian?
lmao dont feel bad, you are providing a great service
