I keep forgetting to post about this: we've been troubleshooting the "missing notifications" problem for the past few days. (Well, I say "we", really I mean Mark and Robby; I'm just the amanuensis.) It's been one of those annoying loops of "find a logical explanation for what could be causing the problem, fix that thing, observe that the problem gets better for some people but doesn't go away completely, go back to step one and start again", sigh.

Mark is hauling out the heavy debugging ordinance to try to find the root cause. Once he's done building all the extra logging tools he needs, he'll comment to this entry. After he does, if you find a comment that should have gone to your inbox and sent an email notification but didn't, leave him a link to the comment that should have sent the notification, as long as the comment itself was made after Mark says he's collecting them. (I'd wait and post this after he gets the debug code in but I need to go to sleep and he's not sure how long it will take!)

We're sorry about the hassle! Irregular/sporadic issues like this are really hard to troubleshoot because it's impossible to know if they're fixed or if they're just not happening while you're looking. With luck, this will give us enough information to figure out the root cause for real this time.

Challenge 296:
LOCKED DOOR

Some doors aren’t meant to be opened. A private room, a secret passageway, or a prison cell – whatever it is, you’re not supposed to get through it, and it’s going to take some work if you want to anyway.

How do your characters handle locked doors? Do they take the hint and leave the door closed, whichever side of it they’re on? Or will they stop at nothing to pick that lock, to escape, to free someone else, or just to find out what’s hidden back there?

Write a story about a locked door.

BONUS GOAL: “Are you sure this is a good idea?”

If your submission features this line, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!

Challenge ends Monday, April 13 at 9:00PM EST.
