As some of you will already know, we're currently very busy on working on upgrading the site to the most recent version of the software we use. There will be some changes in the way things are done around here, and there are some things that we need to iron out before we can proceed, which is why we're busy testing everything at the moment.

The biggest things that will affect most users are:

- challenges. These will now have their own module rather than the current situation, where they are treated as a story category. This means that it's going to be easier to link challenges and their responses. You will also not be able to leave 'reviews' on challenges

- the way that stories are linked in a series. Currently, sequels are submitted as additional chapters but there will be a 'series' function on the new archive, so that you can choose to link stories - both by you and by your co-authors - as series. When you create a series, you'll also be able to set it so that it's 'closed' (only you can submit stories to it) or 'open' (anyone can come and play)

- there are options in place to prevent spam reviews and accounts. I will turn anonymous reviewing back on, and you will therefore be able to leave reviews once you have verified that you are a real person and not a bot.

While we're going through this transition period, there are a few things we're going to do:

- we've turned off submissions for challenges. Any challenges that have already been submitted will have to be deleted and reposted in the right place, so now that we've decided to grasp the nettle, there's no point in creating more work for anyone :)

- if you want to post stories that are sequels, I'd suggest doing it the current way (i.e. additional chapters) or hold off for a week or so. We might not be quite so hot on enforcing that rule at the moment, but remember that it's to your benefit to link your stories so that readers can follow them easily or they might wander off and read something else instead.

- we'll announce the upgrade before it happens and shut the site down to new submissions to make sure things go right. We'll have to back up the current site in case they don't, so they'll be off for a couple of days. If you are on automatically validated status, please do not try and submit stories during this time. I'd rather not have to go through and change the settings on all validated authors' accounts to make sure that you can't submit, but if you do try and submit during the process you could mess everything up. Or lose your story.

I think that's everything, but please feel free to contact us if you have any questions, although as I said we're pretty swamped at the moment so it might take a while to respond. I'd appreciate it if people didn't contact us with routine queries until the whole thing is done and dusted. Thank you.

In the meantime, please bear with us during any teething problems.

Hey, I'm a software tester by trade (even if I manage more than test these days) so if you need a hand testing let me know. I'd be happy to help and there's always value in run time.

Sweet. Let me know when it's done so I can rearrange all the stuff from Moments Sacred and Profane. I think some of the stories don't get read because they're categorized entirely differently (and as part of a different "series") than the main run of the stories. It'll be nice to have them all together and in the proper order.

With this and the challenges comment below, I wanted to let you all know that I think you all are doing a fantastic job with this site. I've got a LJ account and an ff.net account, but I have SO many problems with them I haven't actually posted a story there. I post here exclusively because it's so easy to use and such a supportive community. And I lay those features directly at your feet. Thanks for all your hard work--I greatly appreciate it, and having this site as an outlet has made my life much richer. DK

Good luck! I love the site as it is, and I'm sure it's going to be even better.

Hi there. Any chance we can get a Carson/Ronon and a Ronon/Carson category? *bats eyes innocently*

I've noticed that people have started posting again. Is that official, or are they just doing it?

We never shut posting down - we only closed challenges submissions, not all submissions. Continue to submit away - we'll announce when we're ready to upgrade and close submissions at that point.

Heh. Oops. :-)
