Perhaps if we could ping you when there is a new drop to a thread and then you could ping the list to the new Q? That might be several pings to a thread but it would alert us all to a new Q drop.

I think that’s probably best. My helpers don’t have much time to ping for me but they’ve been great. So at present I do see times when there would be delays. May need a few more pingers or anticipate some delays here and there. What about the link https://qcodefag.github.io/?
Do you check that? If all was quiet it could mean that there’s nothing new or it could mean the three pingers are not awake (3 am) or not available (work etc.) So then what happens? Check the thread or check github link? What is best? Most convenient? Thanks for your help. :)

Actually so many people initially post to my name (only) because my name is in post #1 and they don’t want to post to someone who hasn’t addresssed them, I get pages of posts and a ping could get lost in there. So if possible, I prefer a private message.

Or I can ask people to erase my name and put “all” when posting to a thread to reduce “posts to me” to a manageable number so I could see my pings there or posts actually meant for me? That might be best because then people would know I had been pinged already and multiple pings would not be necessary?
