  • Actually, PepSquad does not send emails except for the list and activation emails.

    For some reason, something is causing the code to fail during the sending process, which means that some people are getting the same list every day, while others have gotten nothing.

    I'm actually across the country right now, heading in for an interview shortly. I should be able to get to it tonight, so there will be one more instance of everything being screwy, and then everything should be fine.

    While I'm doing the debugging, there may be more copies going out. So, those of you who have gotten it may get it many times more tonight. Even still, I will get it fixed tonight.

      • Thanks, Peds. No wonder why I hadn't gotten the list yet. Thanks for letting us know.

        • That would explain why I haven't received the list yet.
          I'm trying to see things from your point of view, but I can't get my head that far up my keister!

            • Since I'm totally broke, I decided to make cards this year. So far, they're looking pretty damn good.

                • Okay, I found/fixed the problem. Was a pretty unique circumstance. Ah well, fixing it is done, and that problem won't be coming back.

                  • No list yet, but I get the usual "someone posted in this thread since your last visit" notices.

                      • Well, I fixed the first error, but it would appear that I didn't actually re-enable the email.

                        Unfortunately, I'm waiting on a shuttle to the airport right now, so can't fix it. With the travel schedule, I might not be able to fix it today.

                        Worst case, I will get it fixed tomorrow sometime.

                        I apologize everybody. The exact failure here was a circumstance I hadn't foreseen or tested for. It won't be a problem in the future, at least.

                          It was probably just the reminder that it had posted in this thread, then.
                          Too tired of living and too tired to end it. What a conundrum.

                          • No list yet, either. Buying the cards today, going to order the stamps this week or else hike it to the post office. I aim to be the first one out.

                              • And this time, I watched the logs go flying by. 48 emails were sent out over the past minute. Depending on how long it takes for delivery, everybody should have the list within the next hour. If it's longer than that, something is really really wrong.
