Re: [Audyssey] free windows based word games
Hi John, Glad to hear of your progress with the audio games archive. That said, I sincerely hope it does not become a replacement for the developer's own sites as those are usually preferable in a lot of cases than downloading the games from a third-party site. However, I can understand your desire to use this method instead of advertising a developer's own site since you have put a lot of work into your game archive.

Re: [Audyssey] free windows based word games
Hi Tom. I'll check the database, I thought it did have links to dan's page but wasn't sure. I do agree with you about temporary hosting though, it's much better if the hosting is perminant than just a community of random people handing around files as and when requested, sinse otherwise it makes it very hard for newbies to find things. I did think the audiogames.net database had the url to danZ's page with his games, I'll check to make sure though. The only reason I didn't give it out originally is I'd already provided a few links to sites like kitchinsinc and so didn't want too crowded a response, plus I didn't have DanZ's page in my favourites so would've had to go onto audiogames.net and look it up for myself and I'm a lazy person :D.

Re: [Audyssey] free windows based word games
Fortunately, at this point the audiogames archive is far enough along that I'd be able to upload any games directly to that, and give out download links. Its very much my intent to make the site permanent, so - barring developers directly requesting the removal of their titles - I don't see the links breaking any time in the near future. All this said, I appear to have lost the original message, so if I haven't already sent out download links, I've no clue which games to be uploading. *embarrassed* -- From: "Thomas Ward" Sent: Tuesday, October 20, 2015 6:50 To: "Gamers Discussion list" Subject: Re: [Audyssey] free windows based word games Hi John, No need. Just go to Daniel Zingaro's website and download them.
