BYOND Action Games Bi-Monthly Cleanup #1, Step 2
Unfortunately, I was late 2 days writing this up. I apologize for this, I'm currently on vacation and have no time to access computers except for now. DarkCampainger will be doing the final blog post, and since I was late on this post, the final cleanup date will be on August 2nd.
As I stated before, in the event you are confused about anything happening for the Cleanup, you can take a look at the links below:
Unfortunately, the list didn't change much since my previous post except one of the games have been removed from BYOND. Here are the games that are in danger:
Games that fall under Reason #4:
"It must be either Downloadable, have a Posted Hosting schedule, or have a Dedicated 24/7 Host"
Once again, there is the list. Now, if everything is done according to plan, the actual clean up and final blog post will be done on August 2nd. As I stated before, if your game is on the above list, it's your duty to make sure that you fix or upload the host files before it's too late! If not, your game will be removed from BYOND Action.

This is the perfect mentality for someone with their game on the list. If you can't bring the hub to meet the requirements before the deadline, simply do so when you can and resubmit it -- there is no penalty for having your game removed from the guild.

This is our method of notification. We don't have the time to track down each individual game author (if they are even still on BYOND) and ask them personally to upload or fix their hub files.
Doing it this way also serves to remove games no longer being actively developed or maintained: if the author is still working on or maintaining it, they should notice when it is removed from the guild and hopefully find their way here.
That said, I will make an effort to save old classics. I should have most of their host files laying around, as I had to download them at one point or another.
