Corellian Engineering Corporation (fan site)

From SWCCG Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Corellian Engineering Corporation (fan site) was an unofficial GeoCities SWCCG fan site for the Corellia region, hosted at geocities.com/plarathas/ and geocities.com/CollegePark/Plaza/9433/. It carried decks, strategy, card reviews, a player database, Anagramed Decipherians, and the Squadron Members roster, and was not produced or endorsed by Decipher or Lucasfilm.[1]

The webmaster wrote from an Indiana State University address and used the GeoCities name plarathas. A sidebar ranked the site in a Top 100 CCG list as id gold31. The last homepage update, dated 15 August 2005 (GenCon / SWCCG Worlds in Indianapolis), said the site had reopened and was looking for contributors.[1]

Deck designs

The Deck Designs page listed Classic Star Wars Light and Dark plus Young Jedi Jedi and Sith. Every capture from 9 July 2000 through 23 October 2009 shows the same index titles and an empty Classic Dark heading.[5][6] Wayback kept light1.html, light2.html, and jedi1.html from the CollegePark host (December 2001). light3.html and sith1.html were not captured on the original GeoCities host; they survive on the geocities.ws mirror.

The Classic Star Wars reading copies are on Corellian Engineering Corporation decks. Young Jedi lists stay on the archived HTML.

Mirrors and archives

The 13 May 2001 original home has more than the 2005 mirror.[7] It says Decipher's site mentioned CEC twice (4 August 1999 and 27 September 1999). It links sister site The Outpost (tco.htmlplanet.com) and hosts Jeff Hansen's (Rogue 5) "Neglected Cards". It advertises the 3rd Annual King of Corellia (Carmel, Indiana), a tournament John Sarnecki had introduced before retiring. Its TDs were Alex Alcalde Gold 31, John Kaufeld, and Craig Spaid Bravo 36.[7] Other linked pages on that capture: Indiana.html, awards.html, pics.html, anagrams.html, ratings.html, stats.html, kingofcorellia.homestead.com, Star Wars CCG XChange (pagesz.net/~billyak/swxchange), Bill Yak's Final Conflict (billyak.com/fc/).

Yahoo closed GeoCities in 2009. The roster and anagram table survive through the 2001 Wayback captures and the oocities, geocities.ws, and reocities mirrors.
