The link for today worked like a charm, the next page went back to 404ing. I’m not sure it’s you.

Thanks much for doing this- you & Doughty One both & of course, Windflier for making a discussion thread. It’s fantastic!

The results page will always have a thirty minute delay.

Think about it.

That link is on a page I post three minutes before the previous day’s voting ends. I can’t change that page once it’s posted. I have to post the link to a page that doesn’t exist.

I put a note right by that link explaining the lag time.

It takes me 20-30 minutes to tally the vote, verify it, check for validity, finalize, create graphics, post them, create a web page validate all links and post it.

If you keep trying before about thirty minutes after the hour, you will keep getting errors. That’s why I put the note there to warn folks.
