Xmas event is out.

Edit 17:17PST: In an effort to get as many included in the event from day one as possible the event page will not update again until Sunday morning. From then on it will update everyday until the end of the event.

Are you having issues? You can post them in this thread.

As of this writing here are the known issues:

GENERAL ERROR/YOU HAVE RECEIVED THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF GRANTS"/"I am unable to earn the Day 1 item (sweater)"
- It seems like some folks have had this issue. It's most likely because you started using the event while we were still turning some of the features on. This shouldn't be an issue for future days. If you fall into this group (there should only be a few of you), please post in this topic so we know who you are. Just say "I got the GENERAL ERROR."

"I clicked image x and saw image y"
- Even though it showed you the incorrect image, the one you saw and clicked on should be the one granted. This can be confirmed by visiting the event forum or event page and looking at what items the system registered you having collected.
Edit: This is incorrect, the opposite is actually true. You get granted the changed image.

"On centered site the [whatever event page] doesn't look right."
- Centered site is a labs feature and we don't yet officially support it. Even though we are hoping to move in that direction in the future, the event page and event forum were styled to the existing site layout.
Edit: Event page has been modified to support centered site.

Jigsaw has been fixed

I updated Jigsaw yesterday, so there shouldn't be any more problems with gold or items not being granted.

"Blocked Images", Profile URLs, Avatar Images

  • The "Blocked Images" feature has been improved. Just click on the icon of the policeman. to unblock an image and the images around it. This should help prevent "phishing" login messages if you have a safe "Display Images" setting in your account preferences.
  • Profile URLs are a little longer than they used to be. Please update your bookmarks soon. No need to worry: the shorter URLs are still supported and you can continue to use them for a long time coming.
  • Backend code changes to the way we link to avatar images all over the site. If you see any broken avatar images, please report that page you found them in the Bug Reports forum. Thx!

Checked Labs Lately?
Have you checked labs lately? We just added a new experimental floating footer that allows you to IM your friends.

There is also tons of other stuff in labs -- for example, there's an option that allows you to sign up for dev notices and see them immediately -- which means you would have seen this very notice just that much faster. So meta!

(We'll be making a global announcement to remind people about labs in the next few days).

Zombie Fish
There have been many reports of zombie fish -- that is, fish that won't die. We've been looking at the problem for the past week and hope to have a fix soon; when we know more we'll do another dev notice.

For now, please do NOT submit a support ticket if you haven't already -- we're hoping to fix it for everyone at the same time.
