| Speaking of NaNoWriMo's crappy code, and as Tom so aptly says in a comment on that entry to my right, their code is so poor that it's been thoroughly hax0red. I sent them an email suggesting things that could be done to prevent the particular form of hax0ring, but I expect there are plenty of other vulnerabilities, if their code was susceptible to one so simple. As Tom says, don't use their word counter. As I say, use mine.

| Oooh! They're improving though. (Wonder if the Raven's email was involved?) Now there's an option to have a 'password added to your account so others who know your email address can't go in and edit your information'. Sorry, that's just blodey (in the manner of the Blode) funny to me. I plan on sleeping for the next 25 days, awaking to send off an email - 'What!? You didn't get my epic tale of love and betrayal and aardvarks?! But that was the only copy!! Fox wanted to buy it!>! There was a Simpsons episode involved?@! I had talks with Stephen Blodey Spielberg about ET: TNG on this one.' And so on. I shall, of course, buy you all a Thing of some sort with the proceeds of the law suit. The type of Thing is up to you. |

| I now suspect the NaNoWriMo people of using the same system as Yahooo! for generating passwords. My new password is pretty much identical to the one Yahoooooo! sent out to me recently, though involving a different colour, receptacle, and number. I expect I shall put this into my novel. It needs some spy stuff. |
