Seems to me the whole winner/loser thing was the wrong way round anyway.

If I had time I'd build an admin framework for hosting these on my webspace. But so far, nope. I don't even know how to do scripted uploads, never mind all this 'tweeting' b*ll*x...

Seems okay to me! That's part of the gag anyway innit? Either way, these days it seems to be a case of finding a willing volunteer!

I've emailed MonkZY. If he's not up for it shall we see if we can find a volunteer here or at CSS? Worst case scenario is that I could host the game downloads on my webspace and have a thread here and at CSS, it'd be a slimmed down affair though.

And I forget what the record is, but have we broke the record yet for latest CGC start?

Edit - better wording

Hi,

Im happy to host a simple webpage here if anyone does HTML and CSS.

CSS? Ooh, get you, with your fancy standardised protocols!

CSS what for? You just need The Amazing Portal Generator

What It Is


A Web portal is a Web page that provides an entry point to the World Wide Web. AOL paid $9.6 billion for Netscape just to get their popular Web portal.* Now you can make your own Web portal for free with the Amazing Portal Generator.

Isn't that amazing?

Ahhhh what memories. This reminds me when I learnt about R80 emulator

Or alternatively Microsoft FrontPage

I think the previous record was the end of April (in 2007), so yes!

Excellent, a landmark year before it's even started!

I've emailed Chris Young and Shaun Bebbington to see what they reckon.

I am new to z80 assembly so if I have inadvertently discovered a way you can fry rare silicon components with z80 instructions, I am truly sorry for your losses. Use at own risk.

It is, in many ways, my fault there was no 2019 CSSCGC. I am sorry for what happened, and am glad John (PROSM) has hosted the competition for this year.

Don't worry about it matey. Nice to see you back on the forum.
