writethisfanficIt's time to sign up for the May WIP challenge! Some people join the challenge mid month, or comment on check-in posts without signing up, which is fine -- I'm glad there's a way for the challenge to be useful in a variety of ways. For those of you who find the commitment of signing up useful, please leave a comment with the below information.
Sign-ups will be open until the end of May.
Copypaste below:
The post for hosting the daily check-in is here and thanks to everyone who helps out with this. If you're interested in helping out and there are still slots available the post remains open until the last week of the month and we generally run our week Sunday to Saturday, I'm happy to chat via PM on DW for anyone who might need it.
If you have ever completed a fic through this challenge we have a collection on AO3 and on SquidgeWorld both collections are open and unmoderated. Should there be an issue with adding a work, let me know and I'll see if there's a fix for it.
Sign-ups will be open until the end of May.
Level of challenge: 1 chapter, 1000 words, 1 fic finished, whatever you like
Fandom(s) involved: if you know at this point
What you're looking for from the challenge: this could be as vague or specific as you like: someone to be accountable to, someone to remind you to write, someone to bounce ideas off, etc.
What you could offer other participants yourself: ditto!
How people should contact you: DW message, e-mail, IM etc.
Time zone: useful for seeing who might be up for a writing session at a time convenient to you

JLA Giffen-DeMatteis-Wozniak, JLE Giffen-Jones-Robertson. Unfortunately dated New York imagery by Wozniak (and Giffen?) in 1992.
In the last issue of JLE, that team had just been confronted with the revocation of the whole Justice League International charter.
That concept repeats itself in the beginning of “Breakdowns’” next chapter, in America. ( Pity the misinformed reps sent out to Antarctica. )
re-doing this...

Soon both factions will tumble off edge... Hands clutching their weaponized phones, finding no olive branch to save them because neither side knows what that means anymore." - Geoff Johns, Doomsday Clock

Search maintenance

dw_maintenanceHappy Wednesday!
I'm taking search offline sometime today to upgrade the server to a new instance type. It should be down for a day or so -- sorry for the inconvenience. If you're curious, the existing search machine is over 10 years old and was starting to accumulate a decade of cruft...!
Also, apparently these older machines cost more than twice what the newer ones cost, on top of being slower. Trying to save a bit of maintenance and cost, and hopefully a Wednesday is okay!
Edited: The other cool thing is that this also means that the search index will be effectively realtime afterwards... no more waiting a few minutes for the indexer to catch new content.
