I'm very interested in the threads from 1996. Curious how BBS was like back in 96. How does one search for it?
I'll never forget that Epic thread when Matt Maloney's mom, sis and girlfriend registered to defend him, sharing the same account on a Thanksgiving, as I recall. I think they were a wee bit tipsy.
I discovered America (er, I mean Clutchcity.net) in 1997. I don't believe those are accessible. Only '99 and after. I'm guessing there is a reason for this.
Tinman is a human Ground Hog Day, stuck in 1994-1996. He will get you the information if you beat him at Street Fighter II Championship Edition Turbo.
what he said. they don't exist. the original board posts went away when clutch changed the bbs in '99

First, you've got to play that theme song from "Buck Rogers" at volume 10. You will choose and be assigned a "Twiki" or a "Trixi" robot when you arrive back to the back to guide you. You must board the 360 degree rotating platform and be spun at a high rate of speed while laying down with arms and legs spread. Then, you will be back in 1996 once it slows down...and a spacecraft will fly over head with "doo doo doo" laser-like sounds. Then, you will have to appear in a robe bearing chest hair. It gets a little tricky from this point. In order to get back, you must be frozen in the Himalayas. I know...it sounds bad. There is some risk involved.
