[game_preservation] Home of the Underdogs

[Henry E Lowood]

Alan, would it be ok if we add your note to the SIG blog?  I've noticed a citation or two out there on the web, tracking back to your "post" to the SIG, but of course there isn't one.

Wow, just wow. A huge loss, indeed. Does anyone know the maintainers -- no chance it will resurrect with a different host?

Hi All - 

I've mostly been lurking, but I did want to pop my head up to mention that the long-standing abandonware site "Home of the Underdogs" finally succumbed to hosting troubles on Monday (the webhosting company went bankrupt) and is probably gone for good.  The preservation community is that much poorer for it. 

RIP HotU.
