Ditch Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 I just took a glance at the number of threads in the yearbook folders and, well, damn. It's almost 5000 threads! To say nothing of the length and detail of many of the posts. Loss has really gone above and beyond with this, and it gives the rest of us a place to comment on the content in the sets, whether we're watching the yearbooks in order or randomly seeing individual segments. I really hope the board doesn't suffer a DVDVR-like crash, because this will be a valuable resource for years to come. Kudos, Loss! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 When I'm watching random things from the 90s, I often jump in to see if it was covered on a yearbook to see everyone's thoughts (because even in the ones with not a lot of people commenting, you still get Charles' and I value his on this stuff). In that regard, it's an amazing resource. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingedEagle Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 Just wanted to echo the thoughts already expressed. Whether its watching a yearbook, anything from the 90s in another context or even just reading about something that took place during this period, I'll always check in to see how it was discussed here. An incredible resource that is well worth preserving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 I constantly use the yearbooks to earmark where I ranked and thought about stuff when I watched at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Not as impressive as willingly watch the last two years of WCW, but still pretty damn impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverwidow Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 The yearbook threads are always a blast. Can't wait for '98! Thanks for the amazing work, Loss! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 I don't buy the yearbooks since it's not really how I like to consume wrestling, but I think five, ten years down the line, when the next generation comes into things, they're going to be really valuable. Not perfect, but really valuable in order to help educate the kids in a way they wouldn't get otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Not as impressive as willingly watch the last two years of WCW, but still pretty damn impressive. To be honest, nothing to me sounds as torturous as manually creating all those damn threads in the yearbook forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Not as impressive as willingly watch the last two years of WCW, but still pretty damn impressive. Oh we'll be doing that soon too, albeit in highlight/lowlight format. As for the threads, it's not as bad as you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryvonKramer Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 I reckon after watching Clash 13, WCW 2000-2001 is gonna be child's play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 I'm really trying to get more yearbook viewing in, and posting about it. It's so awesome the whole project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
