Yahtzee was absolutely fine last I checked.
Multiple hosting will be a good thing, but I actually like the idea of
preserving Jim's own descriptions of the games on his website as well as
just the files themselvves just for continuity if nothing else sinse as far
as I'm aware, updates aside Jim's site has pretty much been the same for at
least the last 10 years, possibly even more, and it'd be nice for future
players of Jim's games to sort of still get them from his shop as it were.
When hosting is worked out I'll also change the various links on the
audiogames.net database, a task I confess I'm not looking forward to given
how extensive Jim's game collection is :D.
All the best,
Dark.

I've grabbed a copy of his website and all of the downloads, and I plan to
host them on my site. I didn't realize anyone else had volunteered to do
so, so hopefully I'm not pushing anyone over by doing this. I suppose it
can only be a good thing to have Jim's audiogames legacy hosted in a few
places, just in case.I noticed that all but 1 of his GMHA board meeting
recordings is missing.
His Yahtzee game, winyaht2.exe keeps getting flagged by my Avast
antivirus. Can anyone confirm this, or is it just a false positive? I want
to be 100% sure it is safe before I go hosting it on my own site. I'd feel
bad if anyone was harmed by something they downloaded from me, even if I
wasn't the original author of the file.

I am not sure but I do think someone will need to take his stuff from
his site, I'll do that later on in the next few days, and then I will
need a place to put it.
Tom could you host it in usa games, I can probably archive the entire
thing and put it somewhere.
but you guys can sort out something for it, an atribution archive or
something I don't know jim as much as a lot of you but I remember him in
the old dos game days and later on, its a pitty he will no longer be
updating things.
