Last week I was going through the WotC forums and downloading various threads of interest, when I came across this website: http://newswminisdatabase.proboards.com/

It seems like it was a pretty interesting place, in its heyday. It appears that it hosted the development of various custom sets, including the New Lost Twenty. However, it is pretty much abandoned now.

Which comes to my next point: is there any reason NOT to try and revive it? I'm certain that it could be useful for the users on BlooMilk who like to develop custom sets; after all, BlooMilk comments on pieces and various threads are no replacement for a dedicated forum. In addition, I'm certain that there are one or two other uses that it could be used for.

Is anyone here reading this an ex-member of this site? If so, what was it like? And what do you think about the idea of resurrecting it from the dead?
And for you major custom makers out there, what do you think about the possibility of having a separate, dedicated forum/site for custom making? Is it a good idea, or a bad one?

In its day (5-6 years ago) it had maybe a dozen steady people making stats and critiquing each other. By the time of the New Lost Twenty project, we were down to about 5 with 3-4 occasional people and by the end of it we had maybe 3-4 people left witheverybody slowly drifing away for various sundry reasons (school, time, family, etc.)

I see one person occasionally here from there but that's about it. The "administartors" of the site have disappeared so taking over/reviving the site would be difficult at best. Its interesting in that it has some new/old ideas but its slightly out of date now; most of the stats are pre-V-Set. Not much more to tell.
