I think that the "password change" function in the profile may be faulty. Several people who have changed passwords have ended up with their group reset to "Awaiting Authorization". I'll put having a look at that on the to-do list.

I can't login to my account (American Saddlebred).  It is rejecting the password for some reason.  I never attempted to change it either o.0

Did it a couple times; now seems to be working.

One of the partitions on the server had a glitch and required a manual fsck-ing. That had to await the person on the spot arising this morning.

Just an observation:

ATBC time stamp is ahead of my PC time.

When first noticed a while back was 3 minutes; is now up to 6.

Right now PC says 7:52 PM

Your profile edit page should show a time zone tab where you can enter your desired timestamp relative to antiev central time (ACT)

I don't know how to find said stuff.

No prob.  At the top of this page, click on "Your Control Panel", then the tab "account options", then the first clickable box that  says "adjust base time zone".  enter + or - the # of hours you want your timestamp to be relative to "ACT" which is listed near the box.

That's better agreement than I get between my cell phone, my laptop, the microwave, and my alarm clock:p  I guess now you'll have to right click on that offending PC clock and make it agree with the "official" ACT.

It doesn't bother me all that much, I just note that the discrepancy has been increasing.

I just wonder if there is a problem somewhere deep in ATBC.

"Never mind."

Did I mention that you also have to click the "change my account options" at the bottom of the page?

My DVD/VCR player says 12:00...12:00...12:00...  I have no idea how to change it.
:p

Are you sure your PC has got the right time? Your PC should synchronise the time with an internet server automatically, but it doesn't always do that. If you've got windows, right click on the time in your task bar and click Adjust Date/Time. The third tab in the opening box is Internet Time. There you can update the time manually.
Maybe that'll help.

I have the same time on both computers and on the cable box.

Then the only other possible explanation is that aliens are performing a time distortion experiment in the area where you live. The government is probably also involved.

I've altered the ntp.conf configuration file. The time should, after an adjustment period, reflect that of time servers keyed to the WWV and GPS standards.

Yes, WWV and GPS have government involvement.

If you haven't looked lately, please check out the front page for AntiEvolution.org. I have added an "Antievolutionists Say the Darndest Things" block and coded stuff so that it and the books block are dynamically updated. Plus, a "Random Articles" block is now on the left sidebar.

I'm going to start a new topic for people to suggest examples for the "Invidious Comparisons" compilation.

Nice stuff, but doesn't bingo require grid coordinates? Like B2, I3, N4 and such?

Though instead of BINGO, it might say, "IDiot" so there's something to yell at the end. That might add just the finishing touch to it.

I guess printing BINGO or IDIOT across the top is just a convenience, making finding the square faster. If you're playing fifty cards you can't have too much help.

Can you arrange to sell these at 7-11s?

Here is an odd bug.  In this post, everytime I submit the post, a [/color] close tag gets changed to </span>. It happens in the same place, about half way down, right after the phrase "supplemental material." I've changed it several times and the same thing keeps happening.
