COMMUNITY : HELP : BUGS


Last year's Egg Bot Challenge- My entry has disappeared.

My very first Ible was Orange Spiced Tea Eggs .  I am 100% sure it was entered in The 2011 Egg Bot Challenge.

I was toodling down Memory Lane today, looking at all of the great ideas and projects from that challenge... and my entry is gone.  lol... now I just want to know where it went!? ! ;-)

I'm getting used to disappearing comments, and the repeat comments that mysteriously appear where I typed something else (and make NO sense), causing people to think I must be smoking crack...

... but vanishing entries? I do not use drugs.  Even if I did, my entry would still be missing. 8-/  It's no big deal, obviously, but more of an unsolved mystery-thingie.

Is this another system bug?

No official reply yet, they must have pigeonholed it.

132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 9, 2012. 4:29 PM
I guess that one didn't go over easy.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 9, 2012. 4:49 PM
It didn't shell out much, for sure.
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 9, 2012. 4:52 PM
They better hatch up an explanation or they will have to peck their way out of this one.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 10, 2012. 7:09 AM
I don't want to hear another PEEP about this LOL
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 10, 2012. 9:19 AM
LOLOLOL!
Did caitlinsdad fly the coop? I'm still waiting to see who will rule the roost.
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 10, 2012. 8:45 PM
I am not down for the count yet. My feathers don't ruffle that easy.

bajablue (author) says: Mar 11, 2012. 11:51 AM
ok... just chicking.
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 11, 2012. 12:01 PM
I may be a few short of a dozen but I didn't want to come across as scrambled.

Lithium Rain says: Mar 11, 2012. 12:33 PM
That seems a little over-easygoing...
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 11, 2012. 12:49 PM
We'll cross that road when we get to it.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 11, 2012. 1:16 PM
Just be careful not to just "wing it" or you'll become a chicken pancake.
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 11, 2012. 1:31 PM
Now you're just battering me up.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 11, 2012. 3:11 PM
only if you want to become a "chicken in a biscuit".
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 11, 2012. 4:45 PM
hardtack would break a beak

Goodhart says: Mar 12, 2012. 9:27 AM
ThAT'S what the egg tooth is for !

Lithium Rain says: Mar 13, 2012. 6:26 PM
That joke is like a "toof" er one!
38
Goodhart says: Mar 13, 2012. 7:20 PM
A toof or a hoof, either way, I'm getting the shell out of this one....
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 14, 2012. 11:07 AM

38
Goodhart says: Mar 14, 2012. 6:03 PM

bajablue (author) says: Mar 14, 2012. 7:21 PM
Quit waffling! I asked where weggo... no need for ruffled feathers.
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 14, 2012. 7:59 PM
Sheeesh, It's like walking on eggshells around here...
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 14, 2012. 8:36 PM
yep... too many eggomaniacs with fowl tempers.
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 14, 2012. 9:18 PM
omelet this one go, no need to whip more hot air into the souffle.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 14, 2012. 11:05 PM
Ha ha, I got that yolk. But I am afraid I willl have to yellow flag it. Unless you are making green eggs and ham?
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 15, 2012. 4:59 AM
Careful, this might hard boil and the comments will spill over onto the edge.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 15, 2012. 10:45 PM
that could crack someone who's overly hard boiled.
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 16, 2012. 4:41 AM
two minute warning, it's at that stage.
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 16, 2012. 9:46 AM
What happens when the 2 minutes eggspire? An eggsplosion?
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 16, 2012. 9:55 AM
A sigh of eggasperation. You're cooked.
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 16, 2012. 10:04 AM
I got too much sun yesterday... so I egree... my brain might be a little fried.

Oh sure, bring Pi into the mix after the holiday is over.....
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 16, 2012. 3:26 PM
I do mince my puns, in this case egg salad.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 16, 2012. 4:04 PM
Hmm, have you ever listened to EL&P: Brain Salad Surgery? That would make you an Egg head then, right ;-)
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 16, 2012. 4:15 PM
I'm too young to know what an Emerson, Lake and Palmer is. Can you eggsplain it to me?
38
Goodhart says: Mar 16, 2012. 8:28 PM
Kids LOL or in this case chick? (forgive me the one reference...only punning with the chickens and no offense intended).
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 17, 2012. 4:50 PM
You pecked the right word, Goodhart. I didn't go off half-cocked.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 17, 2012. 5:57 PM
...nor half henned :-D
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 17, 2012. 6:18 PM
.. nor spatchcocked! ;-O)
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 16, 2012. 8:57 PM
No offence, everyone flew the coop.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 17, 2012. 7:03 AM
the coop or the co-op? ;-)
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 17, 2012. 1:10 PM
Opt out if you are a bird of a different feather.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 17, 2012. 1:32 PM
I'm no chicken little (nor a little chicken either :-D )
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 17, 2012. 1:36 PM
I wouldn't call you a turkey, but "gobble, gobble."
38
Goodhart says: Mar 17, 2012. 5:49 PM
I only gobble when there is too much food available. Lately the feed bucket has slim pickens in it (and for some reason I though he was no longer with us).
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 17, 2012. 4:54 PM
Quit pecking on Goodhart, you Turkey Vulture, you.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 17, 2012. 5:48 PM
Ooo a 2-fer >:-D we'll see who's the bird brain around here ;-)
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 17, 2012. 5:50 PM
Do you suppose Caitlinsdad will keep abreast of the storyline? ;-D
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 17, 2012. 6:05 PM
This looks like the tail end of the formation, can't fly backwards like a hummingbird and turn back the tale.
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 17, 2012. 6:21 PM
♪Happy tails... to you... ♫
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 17, 2012. 6:35 PM
Alas, the comments have been squeezed into a cage. Till the next round robin topic...
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 16, 2012. 4:18 PM
They use to spin on vinyl platters. Not unlike an egg that can stand on its end at a certain point in Ecuador.
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 16, 2012. 4:27 PM
Spin on vinyl platters? Like a disco duck doing the funky chicken?
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 16, 2012. 4:59 PM
Mix it any way you want. That's one apoach to it.
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 12, 2012. 8:23 PM
Touche... with an apostrophe! ;-D

Lithium Rain says: Mar 10, 2012. 9:38 PM
These puns are most fowl...

38
Goodhart says: Mar 11, 2012. 1:20 PM
Do they lay prophylactic eggs then ?
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 11, 2012. 1:36 PM
No, but I believe their chicks might bounce. Can't bank on it.
16
Lithium Rain says: Mar 11, 2012. 4:50 PM
Banker? I hardly know 'er!
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 11, 2012. 4:58 PM
Sparrow me that one.

Lithium Rain says: Mar 11, 2012. 6:18 PM
No need to be all aflutter.

PEEPING TOM! ;-D

Goodhart says: Mar 11, 2012. 3:12 PM
I suppose they use rubber chicken buggy bumpers, too.
132
caitlinsdad says: Mar 11, 2012. 4:45 PM
dumplings are soft too.
38
Goodhart says: Mar 12, 2012. 9:28 AM
Yeah, not so good for "bumping" into things though.

mikeasaurus says: Mar 9, 2012. 11:34 AM
I've looked through the contest and can't see a record of it entered. Have you unpublished it after it was entered?

Also, another place to confirm if it was added was through your PM history. We send out automated responses when an entry in received and when it's added to a contest.
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 9, 2012. 3:41 PM
I get an email when a contest entry is submitted and when it's accepted, but not a PM in my inbox. I do get a PM (inbox) when the winners are announced, though.

lol... I found the saved (to lazy to delete) the confirmation email! Hard to believe that I just joined Instructables less than a year ago.

Here's the copied/pasted email and a hinky "real" screenshot. ;-D

This is a weird one. I've tried what I can but it looks like we need to dig a lot deeper to get this one rectified. I've filed a bug report regarding this.
99
bajablue (author) says: Mar 13, 2012. 6:19 PM
It's ok, Mike... really... we don't mind seeing you with a little egg on your face. ;-D

caitlinsdad says: Mar 13, 2012. 8:33 PM
Gee, I hope mikey isn't in the dumpty, all the king's horses and all the king's robots couldn't put this one back together.
