The board has suddenly started opening a new window every time I click a link (including "Next"), and I'm pretty sure I haven't changed my browser settings since this morning. It's not actually a problem in and of itself, but I wanted to ask if there have been any changes to the code today that might cause other unexpected differences?
What'd you all order a dead guy for?

Do you have problems, concerns, or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The last time that happened to me, the shift key was stuck on my keyboard.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No code changes have been made in forever, I must admit. I have work to do.

Matt, if you're using Internet Explorer, reboot. I've seen that bug a few times.
One thing I've noticed about the site on the iPhone - it's very easy to log out by mistake. The 'home' and 'log out' buttons are pretty close together on the screen, so if you're like me have have big fingers it's easy to misclick. Doh!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Browsers sometimes do peculiar things. Firefox will occasionally decide that a typed apostrophe should be interpreted as [crtl]f, so it not so helpfully opens the find dialog and starts looking for whatever it was I typed after the apostrophe before I notice that the cursor is no longer where I thought it was. Restarting fixes it.

Our wings are not tired.
Are you trying to tell me that if you do the exact same thing repeatedly on a computer you may not get the exact same result each time!?

DXM, are you sure you aren't hitting forward slash?

Nope. It's definitely the apostrophe key, right there to the left of [Enter]. It hasn't happened often, but it's always the same key.

firefox did that for me for awhile. When I upgraded to a new version, it stopped.

That's possible, because I run 1.5x at home and 2.0x at work. Except if I remember right, I've had the problem at work.
