Hi everybody, It occurred to me this evening that, rather than looking through a bunch of threads and trying to find folks mentioning errors in the latest issue of The Times, it would be a lot easier for us to have a "problem thread," where everybody could go and post any errors that they might've found. Basically, if you notice errors, such as:
1.) the wrong installment of a story went up 2.) there's a title for one story, but when you go there something else is posted 3.) any broken images or links 4.) you collaborated on something, but didn't get credited 5.) your trophy count is wrong 6.) the story is credited to the wrong username
then post them here, and Felicia or I will try to sort it out as soon as possible.
Thanks, Darrell
P.S. Laura, if you could thumbtack this, so that it stays at the top next to the "Whoa" thread, I'd be much obliged.

This message may not apply and will probably get deleted, but when does Felicia usually finish choosing the entries and crediting the authors/artists? Is there a "final" day when we can know whether we were accepted/rejected rather than waiting for days for the Times to come out?

Battlesunn's story was credited to battlesun, with one "n".

This week I got my new (4x) trophey, but Part II of my comic was never actually published/added... u_u
Also, when I first got published in Week 76, I got three trophies instead of just one.

I got an extra point on my neopian Times Champion trophy. When I search myself in the Times, I find seven matches, but I have 8 points on my trophy. Also, the last part of my series has no "Part Three" at the end. I really don't mind if it stays that way though. I just wanted to let you know... By the way, thank you Darell and Felicia for listening to us and wanting to help.

Whoa! Thanks so much for this thread, Darrell! Anyway, I have a couple of things... I didn't want to pester Felicia because I had already e-mailed her, but I figured since there were a bunch of problems it would be awhile before she got around to it... anyway... I am the co-writer of the "Getting Past the Snowager" comic with Felabba. I got a trophy boost for it in issue 77, but it doesn't appear in my Neopian Times writer look-up for week 77 and the comic itself does not show me as co-writer. (I actually write the jokes, and Felabba illustrates them and sends them in). www.neopets.com/newnt/index.phtml?section=9473&week=77My story series, "Never Get a Paint Brush For a Lupe", is a three part series. In the third part, it was cut off in practically mid-sentence and the last six or seven paragraphs are missing-- and it says to be continued... www.neopets.com/newnt/index.phtml?section=9403&week=77If Felicia planned this on purpose, then the link to (what I assume is) Part Four, should say "Never Get a Paint Brush For a Lupe: Part Four" instead of just "Never Get a Paint Brush For a Lupe". Also, I would kind of like the last part of Part Three to at least end at the end of the paragraph... it would make more sense that way, instead of cut off in the middle of a conversation. And ummm... right now my trophy reads 37X Champion, but I only have 35 things listed in my Neopian Times writer look-up. Anyway, if Felicia plans to give collaborations credit, then the first thing I mentioned should be fixed and my trophy should read 36X. If she doesn't plan to give credit for collaborations, then it should read 35X. I don't want more numbers on my trophy than I deserve. Thanks so much for letting me post this-- I really appreciate it! { STONE }

Same as lebbs, but when does the times come out too? Yes, when does the Times come out? Is it still supposed to be Friday, or is it like Sunday now? I won't be mad if you say "Saturday," or something; it's better than promising it will be out Friday and continuously making it a day or two late. By the way, rishiy, it's Leb, or you can call me Beth.

Thank you, once again, Darrel, for caring! ;D
- I think you forgot Quote of the Week... It's been the same even since week 75.
- In mys eries, How I Helped Destroy Neopia, there is a mistake in issue 76 (part ten): a "behind the" was added before the title. It was like that for issue 77 too but you corrected it; mind doing it again for week 76?

*sticks*
I have 49 trophies.
The search box only shows 48 entries, but even if my valentines comic were to get in, that is still one extra trophy since for one of those results I did nothing but provide pictures for(The Dung Hero).
Thank you!

By the way, guys..if your forum name is different from your neopets username, include the latter in your post.

One of my stories (Second Chance: MaltaAre's Tale) has been accidentally linked to all the parts of Polayo's Second Chance series, so the search box is showing way too many entries for me. Thanks!

Issue 78 is out, but it gives you issue 77. And it won't load with me, at all! It just says "Unknown Zone."
