I've just spent 15 minutes writing and submitting a brilliant review of Trick Of The Tail, but it seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth. Can any of the admins check to see if it's been submitted? Thanks. |

It's not funny at all. It's sad, you have all my sympathy. ------------- We're only in it for the music!!! |

Yes, something is afoot. See the current comments in the previous forum thread. ------------- "Literature is well enough, as a time-passer, and for the improvement and general elevation and purification of mankind, but it has no practical value" - Mark Twain |

When I logged off my PC tonight, there was a rogue iexplore.exe process still running, but no IE windows open. I guess this is where my review went, so it's not PAs fault. That'll teach me to save my reviews in Word before I submit them! |

About to log off for the day but the reviews of The Lamb Lies Down are still looking pretty dang weird! However, I have total faith that you guys know what you're doing....  ------------- "Literature is well enough, as a time-passer, and for the improvement and general elevation and purification of mankind, but it has no practical value" - Mark Twain |

Ouch That's why you should always type it up in notepad and save it first  ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/ocellatedgod" rel="nofollow - last.fm |

Blimey you're right, this one review is on the "Lamb" page hundreds of times under different names GENESIS The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway Hmm... Hard to know wheter to give this 4 or 5 stars... TLLDOB is massivly influential, and the first disc is utterly awesome, but the second disc, by comparison, is woeful. It's like most of the ideas ran out. But then again, what's on the first disc is better than the entirity of Selling England By the Pound...
4 stars, I think... Posted Tuesday, February 21, 2006, 05:13 EST | http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=70123 - Permanent link |

And it's still like that now. My prize-winning review is gone. Oh, well, at least I still have my pulitzer! Seriously, that makes me very reticent to post new reviews. ------------- "Literature is well enough, as a time-passer, and for the improvement and general elevation and purification of mankind, but it has no practical value" - Mark Twain |

It's happened again! This time I typed the review in Word first, pasted it into the review box, clicked on Submit. Then I was taken back to the Trick Of The Tail page, but there is no sign of the review on the main PA page or the TOTT page. Sob. |

On the previous topic someone had the http thing and I put in my reviewer name of Rollie Anderson and my reviews are still there  so I'm being patient for them to return to their rightful place with the corresponding albums.------------- "Literature is well enough, as a time-passer, and for the improvement and general elevation and purification of mankind, but it has no practical value" - Mark Twain |

Max is still working on the site. He is making it so that reviewers have to "log in" before submitting a review. He's having a night off tonight and going to see Dream Theater in Quebec. |

I still can't submit reviews, even when I'm logged in - they just disappear. How is everybody else submitting them? |

| Chopper, can you PM me with an example of a review you've tried to submit (album, artist, e-mail used, date and approximate time) and I'll see if it has made it into the database. |

Chopper, why don't you try now to submit the ATotT review again? ------------- Guigo ~~~~~~ |

Maybe it is some kind of Phil Collins curse... Chopper: database shows no rating/review for this album linked with your e-mail adress. BTW: I informed the webmaster. ------------- Guigo ~~~~~~ |

| Oh well, I guess I'll have to review something else for now. |

I think "Help!" is still waiting for the first review.  ------------- Guigo ~~~~~~ |
