• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

Hey y'all, I tried to fill out the form at the bottom of the critter directory to introduce myself, but got this error message:

Not sure if it's a bug or something else
@Jonny

And I'm new here, so I think I did this right, but sorry if I need to go about this differently
 
Hi @ImSorryDave

It looks like it's working from my end by filling in the form at the bottom of This Thread

@AgentPete might be able to help if it's a technical error

Meanwhile, dive in with critiquing if you feel inclined. You don't have to sign up to the directory to give critiques. It's more a handy guide for asking for them.

Hope that makes sense :)

Any other questions about The Lab, please ask and I'll try my best to help.

Apologies @ImSorryDave and everyone else affected, this is a new bug introduced by a recent software update – obviously not tested sufficiently.

There’s now a temporary workaround in place as follows:

For the moment, please scroll to the foot of this page where you’ll see a standard reply box. Please copy and paste the following section headings:

A Little About Me:
[your info here]

Genres I’m Interested in Critiquing:
[your info here]

Genres I’m Not Interested in Critiquing:
[your info here]

Please fill in each section with enough information to be useful to a potential critiquing partner. Then hit the "Reply" button - not the "Pop-Up Critique" button.

The bug will be resolved as soon as possible.
