Hmm.  I didn't check the Adventurers page, but the Kight's Kingdom ones are
there.

Just did it, and 5903 (and indeed, all the new Adventurer's sets) are there.

THAT is like rilly rilly freaky dude.

You're only 4 blocks away from me and you see these yet I don't.  I'm
accessing right now via javanet.com and you're accessing via thirteen.net,
both presumably within a very close area, but of course they or their
upstream nodes could be configured completely differently with regard to
caching.

Hrrm.

I'm not running a proxy server, and I've cleared my browser cache.

Yup, this is got to be some sort of nefarious caching problem as people have
suggested.  It's the only explanation of the slow propagation wave we've
been seeing (which we actually shouldn't even be seeing -- that's a whole
'nother mystery -- but it's there).

Now I'm getting the 4 broken links mentioned earlier, so I'm taking that as
a Good Sign and hopefully those will turn into unbroken image links within
an hour or so.

What on earth was causing these to cache before?  CGI directives from the
.ASP script?  Must be.  And the fact that the pull-downs were JavaScript and
not actual CGI would explain how it managaged to work at all, albeit hobbled
as it propagated.

(...) Just to clarify - I never had broken links from my side. The links have *always* worked, but they have *never* had a working graphic. James (URL) (25 years ago, 11-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) For the record, I'm not accessing the internet via thirteen.net- that's just where I get my email. If you're really interested, I can divulge the specifics of my internet connectivty to you in private. (...) Same here. (...) What?!?!? Whoa. (...) (25 years ago, 11-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.general)
