Is there an archive somewhere of the old board where I can find posts from a few years ago? 

There was a thread of mascot stories where I told a lot of my best stories.  I'd love to have access to those so I don't have to rewrite them all.

Welcome back Samkat.  Unfortunately, there is no archive on the Varsity.com website.  We had to close down the old boards because they were getting hacked by advertisers and a lot of "unsavory" URLs were being posted here.  The boards were closed for a period of time and then these new ones were put up.  There was an archive for a couple of months, but that archive is now gone.

That's too bad. Thanks, Kong.

Are there ANY archives left - even PDF archives of individual threads?  I know which thread I'm looking for.  It's the one that was listed under Mascot/Other and called "horror stories in the suit"

Come on.  Throw a kat a bone.

Do you remember approximately when it was on the boards?

I wrote several posts between July 2004 and say... around June 2005.  That's when I think I wrote most of my awesome stories.

Something special in your stocking, Kong, if you can make this happen.

I went onto a web archive site to see if there were any listings of your post.  I did not see any post under that name on the boards.  Most of the posts you can see the title, but there is no content beyond the title.

The only other option I can think of is asking Mo about it; however, Mo is actually "Tying the knot" this weekend, so he'll be unavailable for a while.

Thanks for checking, Kong.  I, too, went to the internet archive.  But it seems that the archive is stuck on the last day of the old boards. Even going back in time to 2004 or late 2003, it still shows posts from 2006.

How do I get in touch with Mo, after a week or so, naturally.

Samkat -

I have checked for any archive articles, but unfortunately what you are looking for is not available.  I can only hope you are able to recall the brillance that had struck you so many moons ago.
