Can someone delete/update the dead scenarios?

RE: Can someone delete/update the dead scenarios?
Bottom line Bear.

It is not the responsibility of the blitz management to police the internet. If your scenarios posted here end up on another site with someone else taking credit for them, then I suggest you contact the owners of that site.

Many designers of scenarios for games like to host their scenarios on their own sites under their own control and only leave a link to their work here at the blitz. There is nothing wrong with this, IMHO. In fact it allows the designer to better version control. When a change is made for historical, play balance or user feedback, the designer only needs to update the file on his site, in one place. they can then post an announcement about the update on as many sites as they want. Gamers can then download the updated scenario and use it. No need to chase your creation all over the internet to find all the copies that could be out there.

On the other hand, some designers post only on one site and expect that users will figure out the designer prefers that site over any others. If they choose to use the blitz in this way, that is fine too. Since the scenario designers are not being compensated for their work, I see no reason to require them to do anything more than they want to.

It is really up to the community to respect the rights of those who create additional scenarios for free with their own time. If not, then the community will find few people willing to provide this service for the hobby.
