So essentially, Martijn alleged that, on occasion, CD has stated that a game is MIA because it was never published - yet someone else either on or known to the preservation team actually has a copy and CD is only saying it's MIA because he doesn't own the software himself.
So, in essence he's offering to donate a game he doesn't have, that is probably in the archive already anyway, because someone has to already own it to disprove CD's allegation that it was never published (and hence MIA).

You misunderstood what I said (and I probably didn't say it well).
I was referring to cases where you wanted some titles taken off the MIA list because you were 100% certain they were never published.
And then someone said he actually owned a copy.
So you can't donate a copy as you don't have it, and it's not needed anymore either since someone else did, and helpfully preserved it.
I'm still interested in this huge piece of news CD posted before...
"UN Flag has 33 sections, the scottish rite has 33 degrees. Not including 4 hidden ones"
Since then i've hardly been able to sleep due to the excitement, been on the net for hours researching this. Apparently the tabloids are going crazy over this huge story.

If it never got published, how can you?
:lol:
grr stupid message length filter
As usual I don't understand what Cornish is talking about. Can anybody enlighten me on this or is it not worth the hassle?

Thanks CD ! You've converted me !
It's obviously a big piss-take though as there are three flying saucers parked right behind it. :D
