Hey guys.

There is currently a bit of a bug with judge apps that means that occasionally when you make a forum post, you are given a 404 error.

Your post has still gone through. If you press refresh on the error page, or if you go back and resubmit the post, you will just end up posting it multiple times. If you want to check that your post has gone through, please navigate back to the page rather than refreshing - I seem to be spending a lot of time right now deleting out duplicates, and people with email notifications turned on are getting spammed by multiple copies of the same post.

Thanks.

Kim.

I imagine one of the problems was mine. :)

I actually replied via e-mail, so maybe that's the issue right now.

Yours was one ;)

I suspected that there was also a problem via email, but the only one I could see an obvious way to do anything about was the ones submitted on the forum that ran into the error. This might reduce some of the multiple posts, even if it can't fix all of them.
