We Are Asking For Your Help On The TTAC Time-Warp Problem

by Bertel Schmitt

As you may (or may not) have noticed, there was an issue on TTAC where people would get only an old copy of TTAC. They received the new version once they logged on. Or maybe it was the other way around. Our technical team got right on it, and it seems they fixed it. I am asking your help to make sure that the problem indeed has been fixed.

The technical team’s work was made very hard due to the fact that the problem was unobservable by them. I also could not reproduce the problem on my computer, and neither could Derek. Other TTAC editors, such as Alex Dykes, saw the problem. It is not easy to fix what one cannot see.

  • Please reply whether you still see the problem, or you don’t.
  • Please include your browser and operating system (for instance: “Chrome 26/Windows 7”).
  • Please report only on problems you see from today, Saturday, May 4th 2013 on out.
  • Please do not report on problems you saw before that date.

(Of course, if the problem is still out there, those of you who have it and who have not logged on will not see this story, but we do whatever we can ….)

    Still running Chrome 26.0.1410.64 m on both XP Pro and 7 Home Pro; I have not seen any articles past the S-class brochure post on the 10th. On an entirely separate network, Dolphin Browser 9.4.1 running on Android 4.0.4 shows the S-class entry. Switching back to the house IP via wifi shows no new articles since then.
