Last night I completely FUBARed some gossips and other things.
I held a lovely event at the Palace! There was a +setting in place throughout, and things happened! So, afterwards, I started a +gossip. It was longish and I had fun playing with it in +edit. I proofed it!
Then I went to go fix the +setting on the room, and entered the editor. Missed the note I was already in the editor. Wiped out the temporary setting with +ed/wipe, sorted out what it was meant to say, and hit +ed/done... so my +setting got posted as a gossip. I hastily then also posted my REAL gossip, went back, fixed the +setting, and did a +submit to staff to explain my idiocy, except I was so tired and clumsy I hit 'return' after the word 'Help!' so in fact had to submit TWICE.
Don't drive, or type, sleepy, Boys and Girls.
So the moral of the story: these were obvious errors. However, I know various friends have gotten confused lately and made less-obvious errors that were made just as innocently (if just as daffily and just as sleepily) as the stuff I just described. Try not to jump to conclusions.
Other moral of the story: our staff are long-suffering and awesome. I hope they got a good chuckle out of this in addition to whatever eye-rolling was going on.
