Guys, guys, do yourselves a favor - go to #sonichu and ask for Gecko. He's got just about everything, or at least that's supposed to be his job. He probably has all these videos you guys are talking about like the uncensored Flying Elephants video.

Do you know if Gecko would have any of the fan comics I listed in this thread? I've found quite a bit of them, but I could use some help finishing off the rest.

Probably not. Not even the guy who drew "Moon Pals" has them.

You're screwed on the comics. It's such a pity, but it's happened all the time through history, people didn't think stuff was worth saving until it was finally gone and people realized how great it was. Like the people who drew their comics really didn't think people would appreciate them more than a way of agitating Chris, so that's why they didn't bother saving them themselves.

As far as that goes, an encrypted archive could be made available to anyone who wants to help out with holding onto a distributed backup copy. Done correctly there would be virtually zero chance of the content being readable until the people in control of the decryption information want to release it. You could even have separate levels of encryption in the same archive.

This actually isn't a bad idea. The mysticism surrounding it will ensure it's widely disseminated, and literally not even the NSA could get into it without the password.

Only thing is, how diligent would the password be kept secret? Because once it's out, it's out.

Yeah that would be the weak link, but its doable. I've seen encrypted archives where no one person has all of the password, rather one person encrypts, then sends to another trusted party who encrypts the encrypted archive again, and so on until the final archive is encrypted and distributed. Only when all parties agree to release their decryption passwords/pass phrases can the nested archive be unlocked. I think that's a bit overkill for this, but if keeping it under wraps was that much of a concern, you could employ some variation of that strategy.

:/ Damn, that's kind of a downer. But never say never. I'm actually surprised at what I was able to track down.

Anyway, does anyone have the audio for the Emily post date/hooker inncident?

It's also better to avoid uploading files to mediafire and rapidshare since those links tend to be perishable. I love how we talk about the material as if they're film archives that need to be tended with extra care. True sign of a christorian.

Some of these videos could be sent to the Library of Congress for preservation. I've already acquired Bob's clothes and donated them to the Smithsonian.

Gecko is the one who uploaded a copy of the full Emily date audio for me after it disappeared from the Web.

I've seen Moon Pals somewhere, on some guy's website. I'll try to remember where and then post a link.

On that note, hm yeah has a lot of archived stuff...mostly old CWCki forum and PVCC stuff from what I've seen, but also lots of Chris media. I mean a LOT of stuff is in those archives.

That's basically the same idea behind safety deposit boxes that require two keys, given to two different people, to be opened.

Yep. although to be technical (which i know you appreciate) instead of having multiple keys to open one container, it's like having multiple locked boxes nested within each other. The end result is the same; Only when you have all the keys can you get the contents. Even if you have every key except one, you're screwed. Another strategy i've seen is more like the multiple keys, one box idea. basically one person types the first half of the encryption passphrase, then a second person types the second half, but that requires the two be in the same place when the archive is encrypted.

The point is there are more than a few ways to go about ensuring that no one person can blow the security model through carelessness, misfortune or coercion.
 
What about the original Bear Canyon and Mario 3 (N-bomb) remixes? The versions on YouTube don't sync properly and aren't as funny.

God knows why, but some magnificent jagoff has uploaded the audio of it on to Soundcloud (About 6:45 or so is what you're after).

Looks like it was taken down.
Damn.
 
I do have the audio only video of the infamous :julay: video, but I'll find the time to upload it.

That's strange, it seems to work fine for me. Assuming it was a temp thing or the problem is/was on your end, try this:

AUGH YEAH THAT'S THE STUFF!
 
So is the video lost forever or what? It had 3 million views. There are like 7 animated gifs. someone has to have this to reupload.
 
The "higher ups" won't admit it, but there ARE things commoners exclusively had that have been lost over the years.

I had all of Alec's calls, Kacey's Final Calls, "You Dorks" Batman Call, "Revive Zordon" and lots of other CWC related things that I know aren't uploaded anymore. But now, that Harddrive is dead, all that stuff is gone now. I'd like to re-download them if I can, but who'd take the time to upload old content?
