I don't have a problem with the updating date, at least not with my own stories. It says that Ice Cold Blood has been updated since October 20th and that's correct.
As for Out of the Ordinary, it's correct as well (holy guacamole, October 14th? Seriously? *slaps herself*)

I haven't updated in a while *shame* but I'll keep an eye on anything weird stuff happening if I do update.

Btw, I also noticed the not being able to favorite a story. I wanted to favorite Great Divide but I couldn't find the button. I thought it was just me lol! Now my review to Jen isn't correct because I said I would favorite the story before I actually did it (because I thought the button would be there lol). Oh snap.

I wonder what's next? lol

You don't visit the home page often, do you? lol Favourites are turned off right now, it's nothing to do with the glitches. It's part of the process of trying to figure out what all the glitches are.

I only visit it for one second then click on either Community or Account Info or something lol. I haven't looked at the Site News for a while.

Btw, I read it and I don't think it affects the email notices because I just see I received an email notice of Jen's Heartbreaker.

Good to know! I forgot to post an author's note this morning. :)  As for Great Divide...until favorites are turned back on, just check the Most Recent page.  It's the only one of my stories actually making it on there. :)

Well, I have never received an email for any story I had as a favorite. I just go on that person's page and check. I don't if that happens to anyone else.

^Me too, I have never got an email for a story/author I have listed in my favourites.  I always assumed it was just hotmail being stupid, because I have got emails from the message board saying I have a new PM and stuff like that.

Try going to Edit Preferences in your account info; there's an option that has to be checked for you to receive emails when your favorites get updated.  It could just be that it's been unchecked.  Or it could be going to your spam folder, but if you're getting other emails from AC, like for reviews, it's probably not that.

I did have it unchecked. Thanks for the help! :)

I just posted chapter 11 of Ice Cold Blood and it posted the chapter twice. D'oh!

Edit: I deleted one of them, and the other just stayed posted. Problem solved. :D

I wonder if someone left a review and deleted it before you could see it.  Maybe it accidentally posted twice or something.
