T206 Insider Going Dark (Update: Site Mostly Salvaged)

[sreader3]

Hi All,

T206 Insider will be going dark permanently sometime in the next few days. This is a consequence of my online database provider (knack.com) refusing to support the version of their software that I used to create the site back in 2016.

All user data will be deleted. If anyone has collection data stored on the site that they do not have backed-up I suggest they do so now.

Thanks to all who used the site. It was a fun project.

Scot

Update: It looks like most of the site will be able to be salvaged. See most recent post.

This is a shame Scot...lots of great T206 content on the site. Here is a link to it:

That sucks Scot. Closing is the only alternative, there is nowhere else that can host it? I always liked the price checker and thought it was a great T206 resource, especially the checklists. That info be hosted elsewhere?

I think I can get the entire site preserved. Please keep it up for a few more days.

I wonder if we could somehow host it on Net54baseball? That would be a Brian and Chris question...

Holy crap, I thought the Mets quick demise was the worst news of the week. This is my favorite site!

Sorry Scot.

What an amazing resource.

Can anyone try and get Scot to email me? If I can get access to the backend I can get this preserved in some way... Because of how it is set up I would have an immense amount of trouble doing it w/o access.

I am talking to him (hi Scot) about getting it done to store here but any help is always appreciated. Just PM him....

I wouldn’t mind starting up another version of the site if anyone is interested in partnering up

I only found out about that site shortly before it went dark and found it to a great site.
I did print out several of the checklist pages like the southern leaguers, the rarities, short prints, long prints (not sure what that means).

If anyone needs a copy, I can scan the pages and email them when I get a chance. Just let me know.

Thanks,
Bob

Can anyone provide a copy of the article scott did regarding the ranking scarcity for all 524 subjects? I saved the rankings, but wanted to review the writeup that accompanied the info.

I am new to the T206 world and have been doing my homework over the past few months. I was so excited to catch the trail of Scot Readers scarcity list and website only to find its recently defunct. I noted you posted that you had a copy of the scarcity list but were looking for the associated notes - is there any chance anyone would be willing to share the list with me?
