Is that your dog, djo? Wicked cute, cute, cute!

Dusty belongs to my parents, but as I'm an appartment dweller who can't have pets, I think of him as mine, too. Dusty is a Brittany who enjoys long walks outdoors and hunting pheasants. His other hobbies include eating and sleeping.

I currently live and work near Boston. Originally, I'm from western Mass. (5 Colleges area--the "Happy Valley").

All right, I think I might be getting the hang of this. I did manage to post my Turn 0 yarn, prelude to the glorious battle before us...

Now all I have to do is actually go make Selena, Great Enchantress, into a real Pretender.

The message I got today, when I tried to edit the main page (or any page for this matter). It happens whether I am logged in or not. I hope it is only a temporary glitch, due to my ISP giving me a particular IP for now.

I cast my ballot for Djo's suggestion, "The raveling".

Never mind, it all seems to be working fine again. I guess that was just another prank; my computer seems to love jokes, such as "preventing user from going to most sites" or "making user think computer single-handedly prevented a crash from happening, a crash so severe it would have destroyed the world, had it not been stopped".

I have not forgotten about the game. I will use Sunday morning to get my act together!!

I have been playing with the Wiki, but I can't seem to get my Turn 0 to post properly. It seems like edits don't happen, and when you go to T'ien Ch'i, the turn does not display (but it shows up if you look at all of my "exciting posts."

What am I doing wrong?

Hey PawshaDawg,

Hit the "Refresh" button at the top of the wiki. (Or copy one over from another page, like the main page, if it somehow got erased.) If you are a registered user, you can also turn off caching in your preferences, so each page will be forced to reload when new changes are made.

I had something like this happen to me yesterday. I edited VanheimTurn0, it showed up quickly in the "master" Turn0, but didn't show up in Vanheim until later (10 minutes?), no matter how I refreshed or cleared my caches. I suggest, be patient. If you see nothing after, say, 20 minutes, maybe we should worry.

Right now (10:40 am EDT), I see what you describe: prose on master Turn0, but not on master Tien Chi page.

My suspicion is that it has something to do with how the server picks up pages that it "includes" in other pages. The nation Turn0 pages are "included" in the master Turn0 via a wiki command (eg, "{{VanheimTurn0}}").
