Litopia's software has just been upgraded. You may need to perform a hard refresh of your browser to ensure you're seeing the upgraded site, not a locally-cached copy of the old one. Performing a hard refresh is very simple – instructions for most browsers here.

About to start a major software update here in the Colony. If all goes well, you shouldn’t notice any interruption. But if not… well, follow our status on Twitter if you suddenly find the Colony is down!

AgentPete · Sep 30, 2020

Several exciting updates coming to the Colony in the next few days. Just to warn you… hopefully there will be no down-time, but ya never know!

Temperature is 40C (104F) at my desk now. I’ve printed a manuscript out, am retiring to the (cooler) bedroom to read it.

AgentPete · Jul 1, 2020

Currently working flat-out on the external Litopia site, pls bear with me if I’m not as available as I’d wish for a day or so...

AgentPete · Jun 27, 2020

Our server went down this morning for about 30 mins, for reasons as yet unknown. If you ever find that Litopia is unavailable, it’s a good idea to check our Twitter feed, that’s where I’ll keep folk updated.

AgentPete, is there a limit to the number of comments that can be made on your bus cough post? I've tried several times to add a comment and nothing happens.

AgentPete · Mar 4, 2020
