Amanda Noon Archive

"If the winners write history, who reads it?"

Welcome to the Amanda Noon Archive

"The Gamemaster Department shall maintain a publicly accessible archive of the approximate start and end dates of all known missions, including the Gamemaster or Gamemasters involved and the CO or COs involved, for reference purposes."

The Amanda Noon Archive (previously, the "GMD Mission Archive", or just "Archive") is a central repository for past missions. Its purpose is two-fold

Serves as a resume for GMs, to show where they've worked and what they've done.
Serves as an in-character "history" of STF, so that people can look back and see what aliens attacked whom when and how they were defeated.

The GMD Archive was established in 2003 by GM Director Larry Garfield in Edict Rouse-Deane #26, but it wasn't until February 2005 that the project was finally launched under the tenure of GM Director Sarah Hemenway. Larry Garfield, then serving as Librarian, was the primary developer responsible.

In 2017, the GMD Archive was renamed to the Amanda Noon Archive in Edict DeSpain #28, in memory of Amanda Noon, who had a large impact on GMing in STF.

In 2020, the Archive was modernized with a new codebase.

The Archive needs your input! If you are a GM, please send us the necessary information. It's also important to include a summary of a mission after it's completed. How do we know what cool stuff you did if you don't tell us?

The GMD also needs information on past missions from before the Archive went live. If you have any such information, please send that in as well!
