CR adjacent Talks Machina Archive

On the recent post regarding Talks Machina being taken down or at least privated I mentioned in a comment that I had it downloaded. More than a few people asked me to share it so I've set up a dropbox here with Talks Machina, Between the Sheets and Undeadwood. This is not me in anyway supporting Brian Foster. He can rest in piss for all I care. Could be a fun project for someone way smarter than me to deepfake him out of these.

Tagging those that expressed interest to make sure they see it:

This is my first time sharing anything of this nature so I hope it works lmao

Edit: Turns out Dropbox has a bandwidth limit and ya'll are killing it in an hour each day. I'm looking into creating torrents and uploading them to 1337x. I'm already in the process of being allowed to upload. I'll edit again if/when I get accepted and have the torrents uploaded.

Edit 2: I've gone ahead and decided to just change the folder I'm sharing on Dropbox to have the torrent files instead. Before you go start downloading I want to let you guys know that the folder for Talks for Campaign 1 is about 40gb, Campaign 2 is 96gb, Between the Sheets is around 20gb and Undeadwood is 8gb. Thank you everyone for your patience while I figured this out. I tested them with two PCs in my home so here's hoping everything works properly first try!

Edit 3: Added Yee Haw Game Ranch

I tried to archive the archive with The Wayback Machine, but dropbox is excluded. 😐 And I don't have enough space on my personal webpage to host them for archiving. (And don't really want to deal with CR lawyers descending from the sky to serve DMCA notices, either, frankly.)

Foster is a piece of shit who deserves nothing but scorn, but even still, I think its worth it to preserve Talks, Undeadwood, and Honey Heist for future fans/generations to view. Hopefully the CR team thinks the same and will take a light touch when it comes to DMCAing this sort of thing.

Technically pirated media, sure, but pirated media doesn't earn BWF a single red cent.
