[talula]

Hi ho there pilgrims. Just got done releasing 209 new stories into the general index (yes, there was a German story). A big thank you to the proofreaders!!!!

:DTake some time and look it over. Big releases were Busted the game show, some more Xy-n, and A N.I.C.E. boy. Read both series and it will take you all weekend at least.

I promise some good things to happen this weekend. Not everything, but something. Stay tuned.

This proofreader will be out of town and not proofing until next Wednesday evening. Then I promise I will get back on track.

Oh, thanks for releasing that XY-n debacle early.

I was going to try and damage it beyond repair.

Thank you guys so much for taking the time to do this. I was afraid we were going to lose the fiction archive and I was never going to find out what happened in the end of some of the story series I was reading.

Guilty, guilty, and guilty on all three counts.

Sorry Paolo, XY-n was in my way, and I plowed through anyway. You can still go in and edit the live story if there are problems. As I said before, I've been focusing on large collections because I find when I do, I can work more quickly. I've also been running in reverse alphabetical order to everyone else, to maintain some balance in what gets released. Combine those two things, and well... XY-n got edited.

I await punishment from the Dark Lord for my transgressions. (Please don't make me edit any more Peuros... Just strike me down, or choke me out.) I promise I'll be good from now on.

Seriously though, Paolo, XY-n is a terrific read. I don't know how I missed it before. You are one hell of a writer.

Is there any way to view a list of the new additions? The Archive has so many stories the only way I can think of locating them is to view every story and looking at the submission date.

We are currently releasing all the old stories, edited and cleaned up for readability, to the new archive. We aren't really releasing new stories yet. We aren't even accepting them yet.

It takes a lot of time to clean-up the old stories and get them ready for publication. What Talula meant, when he said "209 new stories" was 209 old stories, cleaned-up for the new archive.

Looking at the submission date will only tell you when the story was originally submitted by the author, not when it was cleaned up and transferred to the new archive.

For right now, you'll just have to browse around and have a look at the type of stories you like. Talula has made a pretty awesome set of indexes for your searching pleasure. You'll see lots of stories re-appear as time goes by. More and more every week.

I'm sure when Tal gets the software written, you'll see the new stories as they appear. Right now you won't, because all the "new" stories are really the old ones coming back from oblivion.

Keep checking back. There are lots of terrific changes to come. We are far from finished.

[talula]

Yes. 209 stories released from the old story holding tank.

I'll consider putting in a new release index later on here if that would make it better for those looking up old stories, but not today or next week.

Released 140 or so stories that the proofreaders have gone through today. Thanks again to them for thier hard work.

That's great! be even greater if I could see what was there. Still not seeing the agree to rules checkbox, and therefore can't see any of it.
