As the regular Word Hunt Diamond wordsmiths
@Cleoriff @Anonymous @pgn @Anonymous @BobM @gmarkj @Projectionist @Bambino @MI5 @TallTrees
and @blissgirl who enjoys watching the WHD game know
last Tuesday`s WHD had to be postponed because of the issue with the first post on a thread being repeated at the top of every page.
Last Thursday evening, this problem was partly fixed - but, as a Community manager reported
"Now the OP is only displayed when you first land on a thread from a board, mention or unread post".
This means that regulars who join in the game at various times after the WHD game has started, and from various places - e.g. from tag, from another board, or unread post, could see "OP at top of page" part way thru the game, which would throw the game out of sync and cause confusion to all players.
Over the weekend, I considered the issue and have decided to go ahead with the WHD game tomorrow [Tuesday 17 August] but, aware that problems may arise, I will make the following suggestion:
- if you join the WHD game later, e.g. from tag, another board, or unread post, you will see the OP at the top of the page on which you joined in the game. To get rid of this OP at the top of the page, you will need to flick to the previous page and then back to the page you want to post on and the OP will have gone.
Please note:
Tomorrow`s WHD [Tues 17 Aug] will be the first game under the "New Look".
The Updates may take longer than normal - as I will have to experiment with expanding the size of the Reply Box; then paste the previous Update; and then add the latest found words in the right place, alphabetically, in the list of found words.
Thank you for your kind words and messages of support to my previous announcement about WHD having to be postponed.
I hope that each and everyone of you will be able to join with the Word Hunt Diamond game tomorrow [Tuesday 17 August] and that, despite any difficulties which might arise, we can all have fun with a game which has been enjoyed by so many over the last 71 WHD games.

On PC, it's at the side (to be ignored by me)
I'm not particularly interested in any useful links or related content when they are useless, have nothing to do with what I've just posted and are often more than a year old!!
