Brad Francini's Press Your Luck Site Gone?
« on: May 26, 2015, 05:26:03 AM »
I tried to find his Press Your Luck site, but it's not there anymore.  Can the site be accessed via The Wayback Machine?
I am developing classic game show PC games.
If you'd like to find out information about them, PM me anytime.

Why don't you try it and find out?

Brad probably just forgot to pay the bill to host the site, if anything- he has kept it up for a long time without updating it on a regular basis so I doubt he has fully lost interest in it (and would not blame him a bit, after nearly two decades, if that has changed).
I suppose you can still learn stuff on TLC, though it would be more in the Goofus & Gallant sense, that is (don't do what these parents did)"- Travis Eberle, 2012

Fun fact, if only tangentially related:  Recent releases of RealPlayer don't recognize RealAudio as a valid file type.

Color me surprised. I figured it would've made the malware list years ago.

Oh, lord knows it was on mine. But I have friends who work(ed?) there, so I have to be slightly tolerant. :)
