Adoption  
Has anyone of my fellow Obidala shippers realized that obidala.com is gone for good? Does anyone besides myself care? Well, if you answer would be HECK YES than I have good news for you.^^

Long story short; 14 months ago Aiska (Saskia) Kenobi decided to give up obidala.com because she lost her interest in the website. Ticklesivory (Kris) adopted the website and kept it (with a new layout) alive for another year. Saskia deleted her account (and the domain!!!) instead of selling it to Kris. Kris didn't know she would have to buy the domain etc pp and that is why she LOST EVERYTHING on December, 31th 2007.
NOW is where I jumped in. I couldn't leave it like this. You know I have a big heart, especially when it comes to Obidala and that is why I bugged Saskia until she searched her hard drive for a (not 100%) old backup of obidala.com. Everything that has been added after January 2007 is lost but I do have everything else! YAY!

Now I'm working at the website, re-archive the fanfics into efiction (what else?^^) and after that is done I'll re-archive all arts and stuff.
The tricky part for me is to get the domain in my fingers. It's in a redemption mode or something like it, whatever the hell that means. For another 3 days or so. After that I'll try to buy obidala.com so that nobody would have to change links.

Keep your fingers crossed for me, will ya?^^

And a

Ich hab inzwischen in einige der Stories reingelesen. Mein Fall sind sie z.T. nicht. Aber ich neige einfach stark dazu Fandoms zu retten, die dabei sind unterzugehen. Und in Sachen Obidala schließen zunehmend mehr Fansites und zum Teil auch Fanfic Archive, was ich furchtbar finde. Ich denke zwar, dass ich mit obidala.com nur einen kleinen Teil retten kann, aber es ist immerhin etwas. :)
