The GitHub page links to a Kickstarter which says "Become a contributor for Command Quarterly" which links to http://commandquarterly.com/ which is currently down/dead/non-existent?

I hosted the files on Discord because it seems to be a standard form of distribution although I don’t have much experience with it yet and still learning the ropes. I do also intend to roll out components of the source, more info on that can be found here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cmdq/blackpage-a-social...
