I'm an avid reader over on Ashwinder, Pureblood, and I'm an occasional reader over on Lumos and The Burrow. This morning I went to go access Ashwinder to catch up on some fics, and to my dismay, it tells me that the page cannot be located, and then brings me to the Sychophant Hex home page. I'm having the same result with all of the others as well, including Erros and Sapphos, and Occumulency.
Cleared the cookies, history, and temp. internet files, and still, nothing. Are the sites undergoing matience, or do I need to update my bookmarks? If indeed it is just my bookmarks that need to be updated, can someone kindly point out to me where they are located on the SH home page, as I cannot see them either. |

As im2sleepy2 pointed my posted out already I'm just here to give a link to the current active archive:
http://archive.sycophanthex.com
I'm not sure why you were still using the old archives, they haven't been uploaded in at least 3 weeks. |

Yep, sorta. They are all in one archive, but they are still separated. You'll find a category for each of the old archives (and more). |

Basically they're making the transition, and some things aren't available (as I'm sure you've noticed. I was looking for some stories that I was reading on the old archive, and I noticed they weren't on the new server yet). I'd wait a few days while they get everything cleared up with the transition to access the stories you were reading.
In a couple of days, just click on "archive", then "search", and you'll be able to access all the stories you were reading. I've noticed that the neat part about this search engine (as opposed to the old search engines on Ashwinder, Occlumency, etc) is that you can access multiple areas... so if you want to read stories with a Draco/Ginny or Snape/Hermione pairing (or whatever), you can get stories from all of the various sites. You don't have to go to the Burrow, Ashwinder, etc. individually. |

All the stories should be there already. If they are not, you should tell MM or Estrilda so they know they need to add it to the list of missing stories they are making. |
