I am not sure if it's still the DDoS attack on Livejournal or if it's on my end of things, but LJ won't let me post the newsletter. Oh, obviously I can post something - this here is evidence for it after all - but anything longer that maybe ca. 100 words and it won't go through. I just get a blank page and a time-out.

I'll try again Saturday morning (German time zone) after I got a bit of sleep. And if that doesn't work, I'll email my entry to one of the other compilers. Maybe they will have more luck than I.

I hope this marker post goes through at least...

The Cybertronian

It got posted after all!

I'm sure most people know what you mean but: "[Wing/Drift; IDW; sicky, missed opportunity for knifeplay, drunk!Wing" Should be 'sticky'.

Freudian slip? ^______^

[delilahdraken]

*facepalm* It's fixed now.

Freudian slip... could be. My mind's been quite a bit on my aunt's husband who's been quite ill the last days/weeks.

Either that or I really should learn how to type with ten fingers.

By the way, thanks for the PM.

So, as much as I love the double advertisement, um...Hi, I'm Crimson Starlight on FF.net! *waves*

Don't know if you want to put all the stuff I finally updated on my FF.net account under my LJ username, or just take them off since they've already been up here when they were posted on LJ, but I thought I'd let ya know.

[delilahdraken]

Sorry for the late reply.

I'll just change the author to your LJ username if that is ok with you.

[vericus.livejournal.com]

Yep sure, that's fine. Just don't want to end up with identity issues, or people contacting me about 'plagiarized' fics, lol.

raisedbymoogles has finished "Mythbusters Season Nine Interlude: The Autobot Special" (http://raisedbymoogles.dreamwidth.org/15577.html) which is a crossover between Mythbusters and TF G1.

[delilahdraken]

Sorry for the late reply.

Thank you for letting me know of this story.
