Hey guys, As some of you may have already heard, the StoriesofArda website has been hit by hackers. Our thoughts (and gratitude!) are with Nilmandra and the...
Regarding SoA--Nilmandra is trying alternate access addresses to the Stories of Arda website, and has two of them up. If the hacker continues causing problems...

Same for me....but it's terrible the amount of work it's causing people *tsk* hacking is so silly, I can't imagine why you'd be selfish enough to do it..... ...
Thanks for the update, Marta. I had no idea why I couldn't get onto SoA today. If we want to replace the URL in our nominated stories, can we do it ourselves...
Hi, Marta... it looks like the website is intact, but they had to change the address of the site. The site still looks the same and everything, just a...
I just tried to review a MEFA-nominated story that is posted on SoA. At first, the link took me to a dead page, as Marta mentioned might happen, but, having...
Hi Barbara, Thanks for posting this so everyone is up-to-date. I have emailed with Nilmandra, and she has suggested we wait a day or two until things get more...
Hi PipMer, I'm very glad that the SOA website looks like it is still intact. Quite aside from MEFA concerns, the SOA is a great site and I'd hate to see ...
Hi Viv, Nilmandra and her team have been just wonderful through this whole incident. They've worked quickly and professionally and put together a solution in...
And just as a point of clarification, because people get worried about the term 'hacked' this is something else Nilmandra has posted: "Just FYI - the site has...
VERY glad this is taken care of... the culprits should be put in jail. What a sad state we live in............... Thanks Marta for letting us know and to our...
Hi Docmon, ... It really depends on the "stage" of completion of the story. If you can still edit the story form you filled out about your nomination, you can...
Thanks to all for your hard work in getting SOA back. I can't believe someone would do something so despicable, but I know they do. It's a real shame people...
Hiya Nancy, When you say they disappeared do you mean they are no longer displaying on the website, or that you haven't heard from them in a while? I know...
Hey guys, [Sorry this is a day late; I completely forgot to do my weekly educational post yesterday.] This week I want to talk about one of the topics that...
Hey guys, Tanaqui has just posted to new FAQs that I want everyone to look at. One is about a new feature that will be available in a few weeks, and another is...

Hi Oshun, That's actually a good question; I'm glad you asked. A banner (or just telling people that you've been nominated) is kind of like a personal squee....
Hi Oshun, After I sent my last email I thought of something else. You say that "recommending fics on one's website is a no-no" - which may be where some of the...

... Sorry you were confused! Just to be clear: as long as you don't actually tell people to go vote in the MEFAs for those stories, you should be fine to rec...
I have a question relating to the recent episode at Stories of Arda. I see that the links to this year's nominated stories have all been replaced... kudos to...
