I know where Tawashi aka たわし's chars were hosted

I recently discovered where Tawashi's chars were hosted. It was none other than on DEL's site all along. DEL's site was also a site where he was, "looking for requests for proxy disclosure at any time!" After digging deeper into DEL's site and looking at it more closely, I found out that DEL hosted Tawashi's two chars, Watanabe Type 1 aka 渡辺1型, which was an original char, and later Zenith Rev from Front Mission 3, which would mean Tawashi probably did not have a site of his own that time. Watanabe Type 1 was released in October 10, 2000, and updated on March 11, 2001, so there were 2 versions of him! Shortly after March 11, 2001 for some reason, DEL said that Watanabe Type 1 was unavailable for download. Probably Watanabe Type 1 didn't last for a year, and couple with the fact he was not well known, not a lot of people had him.


The direct link to Watanabe Type 1 is: http://members.jcom.home.ne.jp/canek/wata_T1.zip

Unfortunately, archive.org decided to excluded it from the Wayback Machine, so we may never know if it was archived, or not. Probably not I bet. In the download page, Watanabe Type 1 is described, along with his moves, or some of his moves. None of the pictures were archived. A description of Watanabe Type 1, "家具・日用品が武器というかなり罰当たりなキャラです。", translated, "He is a very punishing character whose weapons are furniture and household items." Interesting.

Both download links are unavailable.

Well, this looks dire. The chances of finding Watanabe Type 1, or someone reuploading him, seems very very slim. Oh well. Perhaps I'm one step closer to finding out where this other char named Dare? is located, another missing char wanted by some people. Perhaps Tawashi later created a site of his own, but that has yet to be found. The search continues.
