Thanks. Glad to do this. Figuring how to take on 1999, amount of posts grew exponentially back then, just compare the half year of 1997 with 1998. Think there could and should be a comprehensive approach for 1999, even if it takes time. The year 2000 will be a different story. There shortcuts will be absolutely needed.

Think I found the solution. From 1998, the first whole year of the 2+2 forums, I just counted I included about 160 links. From 1997 there was under 20 links. Clearly the amount of links can't escalate for every year, it would clearly be tl;dr. So the solution is this: as I go through the years, I try to select the links that appear the most interesting and representative of that poker year, and the link amount will be a flat 100 for each year.
