What is going on at FF.net. There are several updates to stories and when you go to the latest chapter there is a error message. Was like this on Friday (9/11) and I figured it would be fixed by now. I am not a writer, but an avid reader and most of these stories are not posted here. The one story I was really looking forward to reading....."The Apotochery" (sorry about the spelling) the writer had not updated since late 2008, It was there on Friday, but not there now. Private View, Chapter 5 is not there either. I'll ask the writers if they will post here, because I know we will get the entire story.

I have the same problem and some others as well.
What you can do is try to reload the story, that works most of the time.
And you'll see that sometimes you can see the new chapter in the list as long as you have opened the very first chapter of the story, but later it is gone......so if you can't go from chapter 3 to 4(the new one), try going back to 1 and from there to 4 via the chapter-list.

That worked fine so far for me.

I am also having trouble. Sometimes when I hit the back button to the main page, the most recent updated story will be from a few days before. Who knows. I e-mailed the admin, but I have yet to hear a response.

The FF site went crazy, at least for me: one moment I can see the list of stories with the new chapters, but the next moment I either can't open them or , if I reload the site, can't even see the list again... Very odd.
And the reload of the new chapters doesn't work either, at least not every time. In some stories I could get to read the chapter this way, but in another ones... nothing!

Make that 3 of us who emailed admin/support (less than a day after I noticed the problem). I've been checking FF's main page and there's no notice about the problem so far, either.
Most of the time, I found that opening the 1st chap and using the drop down works, like she said above, but not always. Some 1st chaps/oneshots won't open at all. And when I went on this evening, the main Bones page was missing all of yesterday's updates and then some. Some stories we were on ch 11 yesterday and suddenly only up through 8 or 9 is listed. Went to M and then All and then I saw most of them.
I'm a little reluctant to post anything and hope it's fixed before I'm ready to.

yeah I've had the same problem for days, I've found that if you keep going into the story you can *sometimes* get it to come up correctly. I hope they get it fixed cause it's starting to frustrate me.

And sometimes the links in the alerts work, and sometimes they don't. Mad Too bad there's not a faster way to reach the PTB.
