Huh? It was broken at some point?

It has been down for quite some time, I had written it off...

Actually I'm pretty sure it's never been down. What happens is there is something funny about the way links to it work. If you click a link to it once, you get an error page. If you then click the same link, or even just hit refresh, the page comes up. Someone posted around here what causes it, but I can't remember what it is.

Of course there might have been the occasional actual short down time now and again, like with all websites. But no extended outages.

Yeah, what Geo said. Initially you'd get a cryptic error page, but refresh would restore normal operation. Today I went straight in. WHether that has anything to do with switching to firefox since Last using the Malfadorica, I don't know. I guess I could spark up IE and test, but you know I'm not sure I can be bothered. It's far easier for me if everyone else in the world just installs firefox.

I'm thinking about using the Malfadorica to publish some notes about the O&C universe. Should I? The PBC notes (very entertaining, BTW- I'm even more tempted to join PBC now) would appear to be a valid precedent (I've been criticised for using the malfadorica to 'plug' my projects before) but would anyone want to read it?

For me, Mozilla leaves a little bit of crud at the top during its first try at the first page, but it's usable without refresh.

IE still does the wacky page, then refreshes to normal operation.

Who in the world would complain about anything anyone wanted to post in the Encyclopedia??? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif If they don't like what you posted, they can just not read those pages. As long as you aren't inserting banners and irrelavant links in a bunch of other pages then put what ever you want up there. Heck, post your entire fiction collection on there. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

You know, if someone wrote a short story, and put it on a page, with links within the story to relavant articles in the Encyclopedia Malfadorica, that would be pretty useful.
