Trandosite
Trandosite was a UK SWCCG fan site run by Rod Latham (The Unknown Trandoshan; anagram handle Res Luk Ra'auf). Latham started it in October 1998. The surviving homepage snapshot is titled a shutdown notice and marked last updated 9 July 2001. The site billed itself as Europe's main SWCCG site of that period: news, articles, decks, UK tournament coverage, a 2000 Worlds qualifier board, and a run of player interviews.
The reading copy of those interviews is on this wiki (Interviews and the player articles). The original HTML is on Wayback. Worlds 2000 qualifier names and later championship deck pages can be built from the site's Worlds and Decks sections; those deck pages are not dumped here yet.
What it had
Nav bar on the 5 April 2005 Wayback capture of main.htm:
- Today's News · Deck Clinic · World Finals 2000
- What Is SWCCG? · Articles · Mini-Articles · Decks · Tournament Reports
- Interviews · UK Tournament Area · Have/Want List · Links · Xtra: Archives · Staff Writers
Decks (post–Death Star II, Light / Dark / other / archives) are tournament-viable lists the site said were split by strategy (ROps, Hunt Down, BHBM, …). World Championships 2000 (`worlds00.htm`) is a qualifier table (country + which championship seat) plus links to Worlds-finals history and wild-card results. Use that table when the wiki builds Decipher-era Worlds pages.
Staff on the captured staff page: Rod Latham (webmaster, Taunton), Alex Tennet (assistant webmaster, Newcastle), Rob Ronnlund, Eric Bailey, Dan Mailloux.
Interviews
Sixteen player interviews, April–October 2000, mostly by Latham (some with Alex Tennet / B. Beveridge). Full copies live on the player pages and are indexed at Interviews.
