What happened to Athas,org

[Bill Lumberg]

Athas.org has been offline for the last several days. Does anyone know if it is going to continue to exist? There was nothing about it at the Piazza Dark Sun forum.

Is it possible that WoC cancelled the licence du to their upcoming 4th edition DS book?

WHAT? I did not know that they were down.

Damn. I hope this isn't a bad sign. I truly, truly loved their stuff.

I'm aware of them, and I'm working to fix

Longer story is that I've been suffering from a slowly dying hard drive, and I think it's decided to stop taking it's time. I've been working to pull the data and configs off the drive and onto a new system. Hopefully, it'll all be done with by the end of the weekend.

This was posted Sept 29, 2009 so obviously the repairs are taking longer than expected.

That is good news that they will be back up. I miss reading new Dark Sun stuff and the crew there produce some gems.
