Somebody please tell me there's a way to recover it. Or even better, it still exists somewhere in its entirety.

Was looking for it a whle ago myself. Couldn't find anything :( Here's hoping someone here may be able to revive it!
Archive man HC to the rescue!!

I knew of that, but I was hoping somebody had retained the images.Quote:

Maybe Necro still has them somewhere.
Sadly, the best archive I could find.
Final Fantasy IV: Ah, The Power of Cheese
Thanks! That is more complete.
Dude, you rock.Quote:

EDIT: Strange...now not as many pics are loading.
It was one of the greatest inspirations in my life.
I'm gonna read this!
I remember doing a count of the amount of times Ceodore and Cecil said "What?" in The After Years. I lost it, sadly.
I tried to read this, but the meaning is lost without the pictures.
Yeah, occasionally I try to find a better archive. This one looked good at first, but then most of the pics started to mess up again. I really wish this project would come back in full force.Quote:

That is part of it, I believe. However, the title also alludes to the slogan of these commercials that were running at the time.Quote:

I wish I was around for that. I totally would have participated.
I remember yours being rather entertaining, Manus.
Thanks. You'll get your Paypal notification over the coming days.
EDIT: Actually, Heath's was probably funnier
I'll have to read 'em both again then. We should do another LP
I actually managed to save the entire play through and I have it on an external hard drive. I'll be looking for a place to put it up - for now, if anyone wishes to have a copy of their own, shoot me a PM.
It includes the photos, too. I got it while it was still up.
I'll host it on Bastardly if so desired.

That is great news! I thought this was lost forever. Thanks for saving the day, Jachra.
It should have been clear from the outset that Cecil was Squall's prototype. ...What? Nevermind...
You're welcome :D
I couldn't let it die, and I'm glad I snagged it when I could.
Oo, a reputation point, handy.
Hey guys, I'm flattered at the effort in reviving this. Thanks.
I actually still have everything backed up on my home computer as well (including the majority of the April-fools joke episode in Japanese) but have refrained from re-upping it for various reasons. Here is a PM I sent to Jiro about it:
Quote:
Ah, yes. I actually considered putting this back up on my current webspace a few times but have not done so due to the weird five-year phenomenon (in this case eight-year phenomenon):
Coding Horror: What did you write five years ago?
What I would really like to do, and have wanted to do for a while, is put this back up proper in a permanent location with 1:1 pixel screens (as opposed to the blurry, stretched godawful originals I used) and highly scrutinized and edited text (hilarious that most of the gags in the thing are about how terrible the spelling/grammar is in the translation, but I made tons of embarrassing mistakes myself). The problem is that I am now a slave to work and adult life and realistically will never have the time to do such things. I wonder if anyone would be up to the challenge?
I don't think I could write jokes that match your style and would be funny enough to include.
In fact, I can think of only one person who could.
Yay it's back! This was the last thing on my EoFF Bucket List too.
I'm glad to see I wasn't the sole source, though now it's spread out at least!
I would find it difficult to improve on, so I'll pass, though I'd be happy to review any new versions.
Oh, that is interesting. I would definitely like to host it on Eyes on Final Fantasy someday with the proper vision that you have for it in terms of style and code.Quote:
