So I have a collection of D&D book pdfs that goes back to the earliest editions and also includes all a full archive of Dungeon and Dragon magazines

because of course I fucking do

Anyway I had a cache like this once before being made homeless, when I lost everything, so I've had to re-acquire them all

It's harder and harder to find troves of ancient D&D book pdfs so if I lose my whole computer again— say, to a housefire— I'm not sure I could reacquire a complete set of archival D&D pdfs.

The good news is somehow the optical drive of my computer supports burning M Discs, which is the archival DVD format. It'd take like 30 discs to store the whole collection, but that's worth it to ensure I won't lose something as important to me as the entire history of D&D books from 1977 onwards.

I'll gladly spend a weekend burning it to disc 4.5 Gb at a time to keep this data safe and available to me on the scale of decades. After that it goes in a safety deposit box ig

D&D is my special interest, and will probably stay my special interest no matter what happens. I've rarely needed the archival data I have, but when I have needed it— such as, given a reference to a specific issue of Dungeon or Dragon— it's only with an archive like this that I've been able to have that info. I want to always have access to this history. Even when the books are 70, 80, 90 years old.

Turns out the place I got my D&D pdf archive is still up! It's here:

https://beta.the-eye.eu/public/Books/rpg.rem.uz/

It's got #dnd, #Traveller, #FATE, #GammaWorld, and a lot more. 100+ #rpg systems. If it's a #ttrpg system from a previous decade it's probably there. Go take a look y'all something for everyone I think
