As it must be an important skill for twitter funnymen, what are your best tactics for dealing with randos?

You guys are doing some incredible work. I recently binged your podcast while at work (alongside Insert Credit). It's all been very inspirational to me, so hopefully to many others as well, and the new archive looks like exactly the amazing resource the community needs to make some incredible stuff.

Did you have a chance to use "Discmaster" during its short life? Was that an inspiration for this archive? Is this archive aiming to bring back Discmaster's goal of indexing archive.org's CDs/etc, albeit with the more limited scope of Video Games, or is it limited to the VGHF's physical collection?

Either way this archive is obviously is a lot more focused and curated and hand-tagged, and I look forward to that feeling of unearthing something that may just been waiting to be found in a CD ROM or magazine that was maybe not Lost Media but at least previously not indexed in a search engine or properly scanned. Archive.org is wonderful in being a big pile of stuff but the future is in having ways for that stuff to actually be found by those who need it.
