[edit] Real?

You sure this isn't just an older version of the regular old Downloads page? RickTommy (edits) 08:46, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Now that we've found the SWF, yes. Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 04:04, 17 August 2018 (UTC)

[edit] SWF Found?

Hey all, I was snooping around archive.org and it seems as if a user found the swf file for this download page in 2015. The link structure looks legit to me, what do you all think? [1] Ted 02:45, 17 August 2018 (UTC)

It has all of the links from this page, so I think this is real and accurate. And now we know the origin of the "homester.html" URL from the current Downloads page! I've always wondered about that. Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 04:04, 17 August 2018 (UTC)

Now that we've found that, some information in the intro needs to either be tweaked or rewritten. The Knights Who Say Ni 01:39, 29 August 2018 (UTC)

[edit] Mirror

I was thinking... Shouldn't we have a mirror of the page because we have the swf file? It just popped into my mind... If you disagree with me that's fine... CoachZiscool1978

I agree, but unfortunately, I don't think regular users can make mirrors. Sysops? Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 19:50, 28 August 2018 (UTC)

[edit] I wasn't the one who originally found it.

I just found it off of some fansite (that doesn't appear to be up anymore) and put it on archive. I kinda wish I had put the other outdated swfs up on archive as well.--Parum33 01:59, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

[edit] Date Published = Date published?

Would the date listed as the date published on the internet archive (link in this section (June 6, 2000) the release date? Can you back me up Parum33? ----J∃ffJMan 16:47, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
