Bouncing Emails 13
While setting us up for better and more-reliable emails (which will fix a few bugs with questions, for example) I goofed and caused about 8000 reminders to go out backwards. If you’re one of those lucky few you’ll get a strange bounce message saying “mail loops back to myself”.
Don’t worry, I’ve already caught and fixed the bug, so no more will go out this way.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
Is 43things down?
“Oops… that didn’t work.
Hit the back button and try again.
If that doesn’t work, you can report the bug on either ideas.43things.com or ideas.43places.com with an explanation of what you were trying to do, and we’ll get to fixing it right away. Thanks!
Any status updates on the site will be reported on the Robot Co-op Blog.”
Around 1 AM PST we do a few backups which brings the site down for a few minutes.
I’m not sure if this is the place to ask, but why does it say “0 cheers” available if I’ve been given 3? And, how exactly, in detail, do cheers work? The information on 43things leaves a lot out.
Oh yea, and why do cheers mysteriously disappear for no reason?
Some believe there are esoteric formulas involved in cheer dispensation. Some attribute the mysterious behavior to the Cheer Goblin. We are entertained by all the theories and do not subscribe to any in particular.
There are many cheer theories (http://www.43things.com/things/view/276245), but nobody’s figured it out yet.
‘The Robots’ don’t know how the cheers work? It seems like you would want people to be able to cheer others . . helps to build a strong sense of community. Not being able to cheer ‘just because’ is ridiculous.
We know how cheers work but we’re not telling.
One of the formulas I found on the link you gave me actually kind of made sense . . it still didn’t explain why one minute you have 3 cheers and the next you have 1 though. Oh well . . I’m addicted to the site nonetheless.
I haven’t been receiving email notices about comments I receive on 43T since Wednesday. Is it related to the above problem?
Thanks!

Can you send a mail to [email protected] with your username? I’ll look into it.
Thanks, I’ve emailed with my user name and a description.
