SGA Big Bang List

[em_kellesvig]

For anyone interested, I've posted a list of the SGA Big Bang fics with their new Wayback Machine URLs here at my journal.

Yes, many of these stories are hosted elsewhere but this is a good starting point for a search and/or save of so many favorite SGA fics and art.

ETA: I've updated the list with alternate URLs where possible. Some fics are still only available via Wayback. Or else my Google-fu failed. If you know of any other links, please let me know.

I'm really sad to see the Big Bang is MIA - so much fantastic fic & art! (I also found the layout very readable and enticing.) I loved to browse it and went back again and again, always discovering or rediscovering something amazing! Hope this vanishing act is just temporary. Thanks so much for the links, Mischief.

You're welcome. I too hope it's just temporary.

Thanks for taking the time to do this. I am an example of someone who came into this fandom very late (last year). I'm sure there are more out there like me. It would be such a shame to lose these stories.

[em_kellesvig]

Yes, such a shame to lose them. Welcome to the fandom; it's been a lovely experience these last ten years. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. :)

Hi 3 Virgos. I'm the same as you. I only discovered this fandom last year too and I've been timewasting wallowing in it ever since. There is just SO much here and the Big Bang site was a wonderful resource.

That is an amazing amount of work. Thank you so much for doing this. You have no idea how much I appreciate it.
You are an awesome person.

Thank you! I've updated the list to include alternate links where possible. I hope it helps. :)

Thank you ;) We all have to learn to stop taking an internet site for granted ;( I'm relatively new myself and loved reveling in the site.

I'm glad to help. I've updated the list to include alternate links where possible. I hope you enjoy the fics as much as I have. :)

Thank you!

It's sad when a fandom gets "older" and people don't renew sites or delete links. When I see an SGA story I like now, I try to download it if I can (A03) in case it just vanishes one day.

[em_kellesvig]

I'm really glad we have AO3; it feels permanent to me. But I still save favorite stories for my Kindle and yes, just in case. :)

Thanks Mischief :-)

You're welcome. :)

Geez, I turn my back for a day or two, and one of my favorite "go to" sites disappears. Thank you, Mischief, for constructing this list. Does anyone know if the removal of the original is permanent? I would hope not, but every so often, I click on a link, and find a story gone/journal purged/site just "gone" -- I suspect that people just get tired of maintaining a site for a fandom in which they're no longer interested. It's a shame, really, as there really were a lot of excellent stories on the BigBang site. Thanks again, Mischief!

[em_kellesvig]

You're welcome. :) We're trying to contact the domain owner to see if there's anything we can do to help but so far no luck. We'll keep trying.

If you are able to get in contact. Please, let us know. I would be more than willing to donate to help restore the site. I've only been in this fandom for about five years. There is so much rich and amazing work and wonderful community.

[em_kellesvig]

We're exploring some alternate solutions so there's hope yet. Even if we can't restore the site, we'll at least have links to all the stories. :)

Thanks for finding the stories for us

[em_kellesvig]

You're welcome. Hopefully, the site will come back and the list won't be needed. :)

Just wanted to let you know that the website is back and that you rock hardcore for trying to save as many stories as you can. ♥

[em_kellesvig]

Just got the news! Many thanks to all who worked on the list and who worked to get the website back up. This whole fandom rocks. \o/

FYI: I'm leaving the list up; so much work went into curating it that it seems a shame to take it down now.
