Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's too much to hope no one's using that version anymore, isn't it?

Thanks for the Nilly. There had to be a reason, huh?

What is even happening?

I might have broken the board, or at least the links page.

I added a link to jengod's recap of the BtVS Un-aired pilot, and another for the video of that pilot (on YouTube). I went to edit the description for this one:

BtVS Un-aired Half Hour Pilot (with the Wrong Willow) EDIT
Riff Regan as Willow? A different Principal Flutie? No Angel? How can a half hour of wrongness still be so right? See for yourself.

So it would read thusly:

BtVS Un-aired Half Hour Pilot (with the Wrong Willow) EDIT
Riff Regan as Willow? A different Principal Flutie? No Angel? Cheesy (or chalky) special effects? Can watching this half hour of Wrongness ever be right? See for yourself.

Instead of editing, a new entry was created (even though I was in the edit function) with the second description, and the first one remained intact. I then went into the edit function and chose "delete" but it made a third entry, instead.

I don't want to do any more damage. I've seen DX's post upstream documenting the problem, so I'm leaving it as is.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Do we have a standard fix for "The board keeps logging me out"? I've tried switching to "don't remember me", then, when it logs me out again, logging in a switching to "remember me" again. Several times. And other rather similar things. No love.

This has been happening since Trudy logged in on my computer.

Could your cookie now be set to remember Trudy?

Try blowing away the cookie and logging in.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

This has been happening since Trudy logged in on my computer.
Happened to me after she was here as well. Can't remember what I nuked to finally solve the problem but damn did my computer not want to forget her...

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I deleted some cookies and it seems to be better. Thanks, Sean.

What is even happening?

There was a little formatting weirdness on one of my posts. I put a double line break (with the enter key, not with a t p ) in this post, after the word, "Strega."

When I posted, there was no break between that, and the next paragraph. I clicked on the edit button, assuming I'd just forgotten to put in the double line break, only to see it was there (you know, in the editable text). So I hit "post message" and returned to Natter, only to see that it still wasn't showing.

I went back into edit mode, put in two more line breaks (for a total of four) by hitting the return key twice more, hit "post message" and now it shows up as two.

Don't know if it's wonkiness on my browser's part, or if it matters, but I thought I'd mention. Post in question: Topic!Cindy "Natter 46: The FIGHTIN' 46" Aug 7, 2006 10:23:18 am PDT

I deleted the extra hard returns, Cindy, and it seems to look fine. I'm not sure what made it weird for you.
