...I hit 'compose mail' on the other window and sat here baffled on how and why i wasn't getting the lj update screen...
I'm going on an hour of sleep. After dealing with bad Italian hackers (still dealing with them a little) and trying to fix archives (booo, Italian hackers, you have achived what the Turkish hackers last year could not, booo, I say!) and loading and checking the new version of efiction (more filling, less chance of hacks), I crawled into bed at 4:20am only to have to be up soon after because Mark had to be at work at 6:00am. Which means, I had to be up, dressed, have his lunch packed, and drive him over before 6am. Boo to that as well.
From Pounce! have 330 chapters or stand alone stories downloaded. I am not even halfway done. I can't seem to do upgrades on the old versions of the archives, since there is not sitekey because I was using version 1.1 and they're up to 3.3 now, and it's being bad on that. Crappers.
DreamElf and Sunshine and Shadow will be practically impossible to transfer. I don't want to be all 'guess what, we're starting from scratch!' but I have this terrible feeling that is what will happen...
I should explain... the files are saved without title information, just in author folders, but they are just given numbers for the save files. So playing the match game is interesting.
For me it will be really interesting. I can't get into the sites, the logins are blocked somehow. And I can't see the lists of things. And there are many, many stories I wrote outside of the PPB-AU that I can't recall the titles of.
New Titles Celebration Impending! I am sure of it!
HP tonight. Mrrr.. I am going to head out of here early and get my butt some sleep. Yes, I am.

Wish they'd have waited until next week, y'know, after I'd read the HP novel... lol.
