Hey George! I'm glad to hear about your interest. Last weekend a group discussion at Brickfest 2003 created a castle village standard that would aid in creating displays. In many ways it is inspired by the Train and Space standards, but in other (...) (21 years ago, 15-Aug-03, to lugnet.castle)

Hi I agree that a completely new site for castle world should be the best option, include a link to the old site and you're done. Sitedesign is a thing that changes very fast, so something that's been made some time ago isn't up to date anymore. No (...) (21 years ago, 15-Aug-03, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)
