I noticed today that the last two parts of The Oral History of Demigod were missing chunks at the end. Don't know how that happened, but I think I was able to restore that from a backup. This could be some screwup by Microsoft Access (which I unfortunately still rely on to update the database...sigh), but also a week ago I had to convert the database encoding to support Arabic characters. I'm wondering if some stuff got mangled in the process. It's unlikely, but possible.
If you're bored and want to spot check reviews and features (editorials) in your free time and let me know if something looks fishy (e.g., text apparently cut short, stuff like that), that would be appreciated. The interviews should be fine as they are stored in separate files, not in the database.

Thanks. Hmmm... Maybe I only changed the encoding on the features table, that might explain it. Though it shouldn’t have done that. sigh... Thanks. It’ll be easier to just restore the whole table rather than try to fix them manually. Funny that the ones I *did* check were fine. LOL I’d be curious to see what exactly is (was) in there that caused those specific ones to get messed up like that.
Not surprised about the images in the last two because I moved the images a few years ago and forgot to update some pages.
I’ve also checked a bunch of reviews that looked OK. That’s good.

OK, I think we're back to abnormal now, at least as far as features/editorials go.
