It would appear there are a couple of us editing the list at the same time, so we're wiping each other's edits. Sorry about that. Whoever edited last had placed a number of updates there, and I apparently wiped them. Oops!

No problem, I will do it again :doh:

Edit: updated few of the last titles.

List updated again.

Anderson's site seems to have been last actually updated in June 2004 -at least that's the result of comparing the different version stored on Archive.org with the current one.

(Deep Space: Operation Copernicus and Red Baron are both AW)

Hahaha! ... And I've been updating too! Probably wiped out your stuff again. But I'm going out for a while, so won't be editing for a few hours.

The games I have from Arcanum are the shareware versions, so I don't know if it really matters if they're abandonware. But if he responds that they're abandonware anyway, I'll see what I can do to get the registered versions. :)

Updated few of the last titles :)

The site seems to be old, and there is no indication that it has been updated for some time. I have initiated contact with him via email to determine the abandonware status of his games.

Until then, the following programs are retracted from the list:
Mahjongg
Mahjongg - Dragon's Bane
EGATrek (already uploaded)
Super Fly (already uploaded)

UPDATE: I have received verification from Mr. Anderson that the registered versions of these games are NOT available as abandonware. :(

EGATrek and Super Fly (already uploaded) are the shareware versions. Guess we need to remove them from my upload directory, but I don't think I have access to delete.

:) Looks like we're getting down to the nitty-gritty, folks. Hoping these programs will be welcome additions to your archive.

The Fifth Horseman 24-10-2008 08:02 AM

Looks like that. List checked, more approved, one rejected (sold).

SlowCoder 26-10-2008 11:04 PM

... Updated again.

The Fifth Horseman 27-10-2008 08:21 AM

This leaves three games on the list.
More info about Artillery Combat and Connect 4, please.
