Lost dots!!!

[Gandal]

I just lost all the dots i had around in the 'boards...anyone else ?

[ithuriel]

Yeah. I bet they come back later.

[feytharn]

I still have my old dots, but posting in a new thread doesn't dot it.
I sure hope the poor dots will recover and resume work soon...

GARRRRYYYY![/Captain Kirk]

More then likely it is a glitch or the PMG has to work on some code, I am sure they will be back soon enough.

Has anyone else noticed that the dice roll you see in "preview" is no longer the same one that shows up when you post? I've seen this happen a couple times in the couple days and it never did before.

1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25

Huh, came out the same that time. Maybe it was related to something else. Both times it happened it took an extra long time for my post to go through but they did in the end.

[feytharn]

3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 3) = 11
5d20 ⇒ (2, 8, 6, 4, 7) = 27

Came out the same as in the preview. At least not a too common glitch ;)

[Celestial Healer]

I miss my dots :(

It's actually nice when they do this...I'll sometimes poke my head in a thread, find nothing of interest, and get annoyed b/c i have to stare at X new every time I look at it.

[TriOmegaZero]

How do I know which threads I'm reading now? :(

Read the title.

[The Thing from Beyond the Edge]

WTF?

[Treppa]

The dot server probably needs to be poked with a stick.

[The Thing from Beyond the Edge]

No dot, but a "1 new" showed up for me after you posted here, Treppa.

[Treppa]

I'm fine with taking the undeserved credit.

[Callous Jack]

Can I take the credit instead?

[Treppa]

The new message notifier went away after you posted, so you can take the blame for that.

[Callous Jack]

Damn!

lol, well done

[The Thing from Beyond the Edge]

Well, all my dots reappeared and now most but not all have disappeared again. Furthermore, although I had "new" start showing up in the threads I posted in, that has disappeared also.

[Lorm Dragonheart]

My dots disappeared, and then reappeared after a single post. What is going on with them?

Well Lorm, I hate to break this to you, but your dots have fallen victime to an insidious plot by the PMG. That avatar you know as Gary Teter (PostMonster General) - that's not really a human. "Gary" is actually a sentient program from the future, sent back in time to ensure the eventual domination of humanity by our Mecha Overlords. You may as well just bow down now and learn how best to polish steel with the tattered remnants of your clothing.

If someone else posts the same die roll (a d20 for example) before you post yours but after you've previewed yours, they'll get the d20 roll. For some reason the dice generator resets after each new post of that particular roll.

In other words, if you don't like the dieroll you got, wait until someone else posts the same roll, then post yours. :P
