I wonder if everyone could please possibly comment on this thread about the forums being upgraded. Last time they did that it was horrible because basically at a stroke the challenge was rendered impossible - there was no way to use the emojis all in a row the way we do at present, among other things. They changed it back quite quickly but in the meantime it was just a mare. I have written to them since to say if they ever upgrade the text editor again to please consider our challenge and the way it works, but haven't had any reply. It would be useful to get in a bit ahead of the changes, whatever they are (and they aren't being terribly specific about what they are changing).

It is this coming week but think there's probably still time for them to make changes. The update might not affect the challenge anyway but always good to raise it as an issue beforehand because last time I only realised after they brought in the new text editor that it was a bit of a disaster! It was just lucky it was a disaster in lots of ways so they withdrew it really quickly.beanielou said:One today.
