The Curious Case Of The Disappearing Story!

Update: The story has been re-approved for submitting as a stand-alone story by the mods!

Presenting, finally:

Man Cannot Live On Coffee Alone

-----

So, here's the deal!

I got some excellent answers and clarity on the rules, including some stuff dealing with the finer points of the inner workings of FimFic!

And: I screwed up.

I re-wrote "Man Cannot Live On Coffee Alone", and the Story Approver who I was working with had logged off by the time my rewrites were finished. I re-submitted my story... to the auto-queue. Which, I learned, I should NOT have done, but rather submitted to the manual queue for review.

Whoops.

Thanks to being able to get another Story Approver's attention and their quick thinking and good advice, "Man Cannot Live On Coffee Alone" was once again un-submitted, so we can get Moderater-level eyes on the whole thing and get some final words on it's status.

But, at the end of the day, "Man Cannot Live On Coffee Alone" gained about 2000 words of new content, a better beginning, a better ending, a massive new piece of content at the start that gives us backstory, and significant edits throughout that improved the quality of the story.

So, no matter how things turn out, you know who wins?

You guys! You're getting a much, much better story.

So, apologies for the delays, the good people behind the scenes are working very hard to get this all cleared up, and very soon we will have the content in your hands, in one form or another!

Um, I still had it open in another tab, so I can still see it. Is the 10,461 word version the new one, or the old one?
