Good evening,

I've been having an issue with deferring a few of the contests--specifically Anniversary, Tarot, Jane Austen and Themed Park. I click Defer, and they stay in my Started section. I can click into them and enter answers as normal, but the forum sections for those contests don't show up for me. Is it a problem on my end or on the site's end? Thank you.

Given that the 4 contests you've listed are specifically the only 4 of their exact type, it's a pretty safe bet that it is the site software that is missing something. We'll take a look at it, but hopefully the effects are not too dreadful in the meantime.

Any update on this? I still can't see the forums, and I had a question about one of the contests. I could just PM about it for now, but I'm not sure who the best person would be. Thanks.

Looks like the problem has been fixed. Thanks Stretham.

I can't locate the forums for the above 4 riddles either.
I searched for them here in the forum, but I can't find them.

This is a bit unfortunate, as it's not entirely obvious why this would have happened in the first place. Most of the things that should be in place are in place, with the exception of access to the forums. I can easily manually add you (indeed I have done so) so that you can now see the forums. However, that leaves the possibility that other people are in the same situation. Please let me know if that is the case* and I will sort it out.

*N.B. this only applies to those who have actually started the contest(s).

I just started the contest to check; I can see the forum.

Thank you very much for adding me into the forums. I'm not sure what happened that prevented me from accessing some forums, but not most.

However, I've just located another problem that might be unique to me.
I'm in the Trifle Trivial usergroup, but I can't see the Puzzletome Edition in the forum.  Question
Perhaps there's something wrong with my user settings?
