I've noticed on my blog that the comment counter is going up on my latest post, and if I log in to my MT menu then I see there are comments there. But if I click on the comment counter on my actual blog, then those comments aren't there.

Is there a comments monster in my blog?

For some reason my blog doesn't remember user info for frequent commenters (me--which is annoying). Even when "Yes" is chosen and cookies are enabled. Any suggestions?

Also, I notice that when my comments page opens up, frequently the text is blank until I scroll up and down a few times. Possibly a problem on my end, but maybe others have experienced this.

UPDATE: Most of the comments tended to think this was a user-end problem. I don't. The reason is that the problem persists across a number of internet surfing platforms. For instance, it doesn't seem to matter wheter one is using IE, Netscape, or Mozilla. I'm thinking that there is a problem in our comments template with whatever code sends cookies since it seems to affect so many of us.

This is a job for Madfish Willlie!

1 The whitespace instead of text has to do with specifying a background color instead of "clear" for one of the div elements. Sorry I don't remember which one. Anybody?

The comments is a recurring problem. Try reducing your browser's resistance to cookies.

2 Don't know if this will help, but after I uninstalled and reinstalled Mozilla the comments at various munu blogs didn't remember me--until I commented and and saved the info at my own blog--then, ta da! the comments boxes across munuvia remembered me....(does not work for non-pop up boxes, like here )

3 i have the same two problems Rusty, you are not alone.

Posted by: annika at July 29, 2004 07:34 PM (zAOEU)

4 I posted about this not too long ago as well. It doesn't work for me even if I click remember personal info. It's a pain to have to enter your own information time and time again in your own comments. I wish I had an answer to this.

Posted by: Linda at July 29, 2004 07:40 PM (9Pzdi)

5 Rusty, I know that Jim was having all kinds of problems on my comments under IE - but when I posted on my site to see if anyone else had a problem, I didn't get any response at all. So I still don't know why there is a problem with some IE browsers, but not others (my IE browser resolves the comment box just fine...) *sigh*

Some sites I do have problems with the blog retaining my info, others there is no problem. I haven't figured that one out either. I use Firefox for browsing now, most of the time.

8 Did you try double clicking on the field? Usually my info doesn't appear, but when I double click it appears in a dropdown menu, then I click on the dropdown.

Posted by: Tuning Spork at July 30, 2004 02:36 AM (uSX+R)

9 Rusty, the problems I have with that idea is that (a) it's not consistent, (b) we're all using different comment templates, and (c) it happens to me on other blogs too.

I'm not saying you're wrong, mind; just that I'm not sure. But I will poke around some more this weekend.

Posted by: Susie at July 29, 2004 06:28 PM (11RPa)

3 Here's what I do - I open a new browser window and see if the trackback shows up on the post. If it doesn't, I do a manual trackback and save the post again. If the trackback doesn't take that time, then it might be a problem with the other site. I have to do the manual trackbacks for blogspot cause it doesn't do automatic.

As you may know, all of Munuvania is currently being censored by the South Korean government (check out Big Hominid for the latest on government censorship - he also got tagged in a Newsweek article). It just dawned on me that the ban on the mu.nu domain is probably a direct result of my posting the video of the South Korean hostage being beheaded.

As someone who's a brand new arrival in mu.nu, I feel like quite the ass for getting all of all y'all banned in an entire country.

So please accept my abject apologies for this turn of events.

Pixy/Madfish:

I've seen a few places mention some MT plugin that allows you to close off comments after a certain amount of time. Given 99% of the spam that beats the Blacklist comes from old comments, is it possible to install this in the Central Munu Computer DooHickey?

1 Yikes!

Are you using MT Blacklist to block them?

If there's a common URL or IP address we can use MT Blacklist to automatically remove them, rebuild your blog, and ban them in the future.

Posted by: Pixy Misa at July 28, 2004 12:15 AM (+S1Ft)

2 Well, this has happened before and I had to individually click each address and then banned and deleted them. There was only one comment, but when I clicked to MT Blacklist it, about 2000 appeared (same as before).

Posted by: Rae at July 28, 2004 12:39 AM (n0lK2)

3 Well, then MT Blacklist can zap them all for you with one click and the job is done! Yay for MT Blacklist!

Posted by: Pixy Misa at July 28, 2004 01:01 AM (+S1Ft)

4 Wow. Just wow. I've gotten two or three in one shot but geeze!

5 Pixy- how with one click? I think you are still an author on my blog...can you take a look and tell me what exactly to do?

Posted by: Rae at July 28, 2004 05:33 AM (Gyucn)

6 You have to go into MT Blacklist: http://blog.mu.nu/cgi/mt-blacklist.cgi. You can also get there by clicking on the link in the comment email that says "De-spam using MT Blacklist".

If all the spam came from the same IP address, or refers to the same web site, MT Blacklist will zap it for you using the De-Spam function.

Posted by: Pixy Misa at July 28, 2004 07:49 AM (kOqZ6)

7 Isn't all of Mu.Nu under the MT Blacklist umbrella? I thought so, but maybe I'm misunderstanding all this...

Posted by: Ted at July 28, 2004 09:51 AM (ZjSa7)

8 All MuNu blogs can be protected under the Blacklist umbrella. They've got to be turned on individually though. Log into MT and go to http://blog.mu.nu/cgi/mt-blacklist.cgi?__mode=config. You'll be able to turn on/off Blacklist for each blog that you have permissions for.

11 Well, for the computer lingo illiterate that I am, that doesn't work, Jim. I keep getting an error. Here is the direct link if someone can figure out how to "De-Spam" with one click- all my efforts have been frustrated and I need to step away from this annoying situation. I just don't have the time to individually click 2364 spam entries and then delete them.

Any help would be much appreciated and I would gladly throw a little blog-attention to rescuers way.

Posted by: Rae at July 28, 2004 06:04 PM (Iz07H)

12 O.K. Wait, so all thsoe entries actually spammers that have been blacklisted? I am totally confused now....I didn't even plan to touch the computer for the next five days....

Posted by: Rae at July 28, 2004 06:14 PM (Iz07H)

13 Rae, this may or may not help, but i've noticed when i click the link to MT Blacklist that appears at the bottom of the comment notification e-mail, sometimes i'll get an error message if i'm not already logged in to my blog.mu.nu site. So i usually log in to MT first, then go to the e-mail and click the link to MT blacklist.

Posted by: annika at July 28, 2004 09:55 PM (zAOEU)

14 Hi Rae. Yes, those are the spammers we've already blocked

Are you getting an email when you get comments? If so, when you get spam, just click on the link in the email.

No, this is not a joke. I wish it were.

The government of South Korea took humbrage at the many links to video of Kim Sun-il being beheaded (disclosure note: I was one back in my blahsplat days). In order to 'protect the family' of the victim, they took the drastic step of blocking all internet access, by browsers in Korea, to any DOMAIN with any links to the video. So, all URL's that end in blogspot.com are blocked. Browsers in Korea have been using proxies to view blogs they like, but that's a pain.

A friend of mine in Korea, Kevin (aka, Big Hominid), e-mailed me yesterday and told me that he couldn't see some pics on my site because he had to view it through a proxy as well. When I told him about my move to mu.nu this is what he wrote:

Damn, then you're banned here, along with the rest of your unruly tribe [ie, munivians]. You just can't win against the g*dd*mn Korean government.

Are there any munivians in Korea that can confirm this?

A question for all you baseball fans...

How many hits can you get in a half-inning without scoring a run?

Posted by: Madfish Willie at 01:20 AM | Comments (10) | Add Comment
Post contains 27 words, total size 1 kb.

1 I'm gonna say 6.

The bases are loaded by 3 consecutive shallow line-drive hits. The runner on first gets picked off for the 1st out, then the batter gets an infield hit. That runner then gets picked off at 1st for the 2nd out. The next batter gets an infield hit - the 5th hit of the inning - and loads the bases with 2 outs. The next batter hits a line-drive base hit to left and reaches 1st easily, but the runner on second is gunned down at 3rd before the runner from third can cross home plate. 6 hits, no runs.

Posted by: Tuning Spork at July 27, 2004 01:58 AM (W2gEq)

2 Or we can just say that the runner on 3rd was Sid Fernandez and was gunned down at home!

Posted by: Tuning Spork at July 27, 2004 02:00 AM (W2gEq)

3 You answer is correct, however, I find your analysis flawed...

After your bases are loaded... runner is picked off first... then batter gets an infield hit... certainly that would score a runner from third more times than not...

That was way too fast... here's how I read it on ESPN earlier today:

1. Single - thrown out trying to steal second base. One away.

2. Single - thrown out trying to steal second base. Two away.

3. Single - man on first.

4. Infield Single - hold runner at second base - men on first and second.

5. Infield Single - hold lead runner at third base - men on first, second, and third.

6. Single - ball hits runner, runner is out and batter is credited with a single. Three away!

Six hits and no runs!!!

Posted by: Madfish Willie at July 27, 2004 02:10 AM (uvu7I)

4 Well, that's a different way of getting there, but I don't see that my scenario is flawed.

An infield hit would likely be a hard ball to play and the runner on third would be careful about getting too far from base before committing to home -- likewise for the runner on second -- and they'd likely both hold their base on that hit just so's they don't make an easier target.

It's not really how it's done so much as that it's just mathematically impossible to add up 3 bases and 3 outs and get more than 6 hits. There are gonna be several of ways of getting there.

Posted by: Tuning Spork at July 27, 2004 04:13 AM (W2gEq)

5 P.S.: Who the hell is Mudfish Billie? Sounds kinda feminine, but I'm not quite sure...

Posted by: Tuning Spork at July 27, 2004 04:55 AM (W2gEq)

6 Ooops. That sounded like a slight. I didn't mean it to be -- I was honestly asking.
I now realize that it was you and not Pam. Sowwy,...

Posted by: Tuning Spork at July 27, 2004 07:57 AM (W2gEq)

7 Actually the answer is 12. Say the first team does the above in the final 5 minutes of the first 15 minutes of an inning. The second team does the same thing in 5 minutes. All the action has occured within the last half (10 minutes) of the 20 minute inning.

Boo ya!

8 Sorry, Jim, that's wrong. You forgot about the three minutes of commercials during the change of sides!!

I love the C-Panel site stats, but still mostly use Site Meter for a quick summary. I've been trying to add Site Meter to my archive pages, but not sure where to install the code. I've tried various places in the archive template to no avail.

Since Site Meter will only count hits to your main page if it is not installed in the archive template, I thought this might be something others would be interested in learning how to fix.

Help us Madfish Willie...you're our only hope.

First, liberals: I have been wanting to post something about this for a while, and based on a recent post, I’m kind of excited to do so now.

I went through all of the mu.nu blogs recently only to realize that I was likely the only democrat/liberal (those two are not always connected, but I’m using them that way for the sake of argument). Then, I saw this comment on this post:

Wait a minute. I thought *I* was the token liberal.
Posted by: Jennifer at July 22, 2004 07:49 PM

*ducking*

On to the Blogrolling thing: I would have posted a question asking if anyone had the OPML code to import to Blogrolling, but I’ve actually enjoyed perusing the Munuvian sites. I’m switching the mu.nu roll over to Blogrolling so that recently updated sites can be flagged. I really like that feature with Blogrolling and find it to be useful so that I’m not visiting sites that haven’t been updated in a few days. I’m not quite done adding everyone (my, there are a lot of you), but I think it’s going to work out really well to showcase blogs that update frequently. I think I can share the OPML if anyone has Blogrolling Gold and wants to import the code into their own blogroll.

The only issue I’m going to have with this is that I won’t know who the new Munuvians are. Other than adding them to the mu.nu blogroll and their occasional hello here, is there any way to know when they come on board? I’m fairly new here, so don’t shoot me if this seems like a stupid question.

I think that’s about it for now. Hope you’re all doing well. :)

I just got an e-mail from the paper in Harrisburg, and they are going to do a story on blogging.

This is your opportunity to be the "Deep Throat" of the blog world. You can be the anonymous source of all things blog related.

12 Dooce is Heather Armstrong...she was fired a couple of years ago for posting about her work, although she did it with the knowledge of her supervisors and they discussed how they would be portrayed on the site. She lives in Salt Lake City now with her husband and new baby, and has an incredible blog. Check her out if you haven't already. You can link to her from me...

13 Application went out today for the residency in Lancaster. We should be visiting that area, perhaps even a couple of times, in the next few months. Let me know if you'd like to meet up, Tom and I'll see if our unforgiving interview schedule will allow for such a thing.

You don't mind toddlers, do you?

Vehement Spittle (Anyone have any idea what blog this is? I'm trying to guess!)
King of Fools (Fire Ants)
ChristWeb (Highlanders)

We need three more teams. I'm calling out Madfish, and Harvey. They talk tough, but we all know they crumble in competition.

I finished moving all the archives over for Both Hands today (tried to save you some work, Pixy). You're all welcome to come visit!

I love the MT style--so clean and pretty, and I love my template, except for one thing...the archives are not so nice. If anyone can give me some help tweaking my master archive index so it looks like my main index, I would greatly appreciate it.

I was reminded of this drinking song that any woman named Sarah will no doubt be annoyed if you point it out. We used to sing this at The Phyrst, in State College.

"Sarah, Sarah, sitting in a Chevrolet. All day long she sits and shifts. All day long she shifts and sits. Sara, Sara, sitting in a Chevrolet."

"Sarah, Sarah, sipping on a bottle of Schlitz. All day long she sips her Schlitz. All day long her Schlitz she sips. Sara, Sara, sipping on a bottle of Schlitz."

"Sarah, Sarah, working in a sheet slitting plant. All day long she slits those sheets.All day long those sheets she slits. Sarah, Sarah, working in a sheet slitting plant."

UPDATE: Make that an autodraft. A lot of emails telling me live draft is too much so, I am all if not flexible!

Every year for the past 4 or 5 years I have played Yahoo Fantasy Football with friends from work, and some online. This year is no exception, except this year I am hoping to perhaps call out a few bloggers for some fun and competition. I am hoping to get a league together with a maximum of 10 teams, and no less then 8 teams. I've found this size of a league to be most fun, and playable.

To join is simple:

Go here and use the following to join the league. You will need a Yahoo ID to join, by the way:

League ID# is 171767
Password is paradox

For the team name please use your blog name and be sure to leave a message on my blog or on the message board there to confirm you joined. Commenters to this blog are welcome too, just be sure to let me know.

So far we have 3 teams, and are looking to have a autodraft to pick teams. If you have any questions let me know.

1 There was a .us domain I wanted, but I can't remember what it was. Hmm. Not that I can get one anyway
