FFNet Igenlode's own stories
10 February 2021 05:06 pmAnd here is the one list I forgot to retrieve for possible future reference -- courtesy of
pedanther, some of my old stats posts which fortunately archived the story links, a homebrew awk script to recombine the two, my browser bookmarks for the reviews on my 'old' account, and the fact that I managed to get the first page of my FFnet story list to display a couple of days ago, which happens to cover the URLs of the remaining stories written since that last full stats post.
I hope I really have got all of the relevant data out now; I still need to have a go at fixing all the local links to those files so that the index pages actually point to the relevant stories and the 'next chapter' links work again, but the actual content should all be saved.
