June 03, 2009, 06:05 PM
Hey all: Quick admin notice that we're aware that some of our sites (including PotterCast.com and large parts of MyLeaky) are undergoing some shortages. Thank you for your patience as we get this ironed out. We are waiting for drives to be added to our servers and it is making a fix take longer than it usually does. Hang tightContinued...

New Deathly Hallows and Order of the Phoenix Countdowns
February 03, 2007, 01:12 AM
We waited a bit to announce that new book countdown you see on the right side of the page, because we were working on something better: With Harry Potter book and film so close together this year, we've made a combined countdown for your Web page, MySpaces, etc. Now you canContinued...

Some of our sister sites on the Floo Network - The Harry Potter Lexicon, Quick Quotes and The Cauldron Shop - are having some server burps and giggles this week, and have been unable to update; please be patient and it will all be fixed shortly. Thanks much!
Belated Staff Announcement
December 01, 2005, 08:10 AM
He's not our newest staff addition, but we wanted to welcome him all the same: Alex Robbin, who has been working for a long time on LeakyLounge almost since its inception, has joined the main Leaky team as a staff programmer. That's a handy title, but doesn't truly encapsulate what Alex does - so I'llContinued...
Welcome, Heather!

Hey everybody!
John here - making my inaugural news post here to give an exciting announcement! We've been expanding Leaky's staff lately, and that means more editors, more helpers and...an assistant for me!
So, it is time to reveal the new mystery staffer mentioned on the latest PotterCast. Many of you know her as MakaniContinued...
Julie Comes to Leaky!
October 17, 2005, 08:10 PM
As those of you who were around here an eon ago remember, we not-so-recently put out a call for editors. We're very proud to announce our first new editor from that bunch, Julie Tynion, who was just too sweet, too persistent, too knowledgeable, and too enthusiastic for us to turn away. We hope you'll join us inContinued...
ADMIN: BOOK SPOILERS
July 12, 2005, 10:54 PM
We've had several posts in the comments section and on Leaky Lounge that contain spoilers or that link to web pages that contain spoilers. We've disabled comments to issue this official warning - STOP. Posting ANY spoilers here is utterly disrespectful of Jo Rowling, the publishers, your fellow readers, and the peopleContinued...
ADMIN: Notification System Nearly Fixed, Other Changes
July 05, 2005, 09:18 AM
Hey all; we've been working with the incomparable Chad Everett of Everitz Consulting, who developed the system that sends you news notifications, to fix the bug where you're getting multiple copies of each entry. That bug is fixed. Also, now, if you're subscribed to more than oneContinued...
ADMIN: Notifications On
June 23, 2005, 10:42 AM
In an attempt to fix the bug where you get several notification emails for one topic, we have turned notifications back on and are working with the software developer to fix it. We ask for your patience as we get this sorted. Thank you!
ADMIN: HBP Contest Page
June 07, 2005, 02:25 PM
Our post with all the contest info got old, so we made a special page for HBP "Cub Reporter" contests as well as other HBP-related contests, right here, so you can keep track. It's also listed on our new text sidebar. If you look over this list and see a contest we haven't listed, please let us know.
ADMIN: E-mail notifications
June 05, 2005, 10:31 AM
After figuring out how to put them back on, it seems our notifications have gone bazooka again and the software is sending as many as 12 e-mails to each person who is subscribed. We've shut the e-mails off for the moment, and are working on it, so please hang tight.
ADMIN: Editors Update
May 24, 2005, 11:25 AM
We're getting more and more e-mails on this, so hopefully this will put some speculation to rest: We did not yet announce the results of our editor search - we had planned to have done so by now but a certain lady whose name we won't mention (but whose initials are JKR :), has made life around these parts even moreContinued...

We feel your pain
Really we do
No one wants to party
As much as us with you
We're approaching the end
And mean it, we swear
So please keep your heads
And hang out right there
Our comments are open
Though our forum is not
We had to choose which
Way to deal with you lot
We will be back shortly
The hour is nigh
Because server or no
It's just about time.Continued...
