In case we move the games here, should we transcribe the comments from previous games here so that new players can see them? Also, if we move, it'll be harder to get new players without advertizing on starwars.com. We could also just regularly post the link to this place on Ambush.

Well if new players want to see past games they could just go to ambush new players usually end up looking at the ambush guide before asking to play.

I think the transcription is a really good idea, but how would that be done, exactly?

I doubt we can get it gone.

What exactly do you mean by transcription? I don't know that word and translating it doesn't really make it more clear.

We don't need to copy and paste each comment we could just upload the pics onto here.

I think Disney could take down the episode guides, or update/change them or SW.com soon. Which would probably result in the removal of all comments. And I just got an idea to make sure we'll not lose the memories of the first games: screen recording. I could record the my screen and scroll down the page, making a video of the comments of each game. Since I recently bought a 2 TB disk I should have more than enough space to store all the games. The problem is, recording the comments and replies of 12 games on my own would take too much time, so if anyone wants to help... I'll post a guide on screen recording for those who don't know how it works soon.
EDIT: I'm also working on saving all concept art and the featurettes of the episode guides on my laptop. Since those shouldn't get lost either. So far I only did ambush though.

I think just looking through pages to find comments from each game and taking a couple screenshots will do.........

That would be a lot to record. Maybe just doing a little bit from each game would be better. But I still like the idea. It just seems really hard to do and like Jodo said I'd help but I don't have a recorder.

It would be truly sad if we lost the Ambush guide with all those memories on them...

Actually alot of comments have been deleted already it seems some of the older comments delete themselves randomly over time but some of the comments stay like I saw one comment from Potato and he was just talking to himself and only his comments where there but you could tell there was other comments at the time....

That's strange... Must be for space reasons.

That's strange... Yeah I remember a few months ago there was about 400 pages on Ambush but now there's 380ish so some must have been deleted and you can't really mass delete anymore like season 4 so they must disappear over time. Usually it's just repleys and not actual comments....

(thrice...........) But actually the site has deleted some comments before so I guess that also probably happened

I just tried this and I recorded the first game in about 8-10 minutes. I'll have to load it to my editing program now to see the results but I think 10 minutes for a full game is pretty fast, of course later games will have more comments but still...

That is pretty good for one game but like you said, when you get to the last few games on Ambush there'll be a lot more comments because of all the new people that joined.

So for those who didn't have a recorder but wanted to help. This guide I just made should help you get a screen recorder and it explains how to use it.

Until now I only noticed the comments of Gamma and Kenobi-wan were missing. Superseaturtle's comments were still there.
