It's been a long while, folks, hasn't it? The loss of group notifications shut down most groups' activity, so it's been a whole chunk of time since we've had anything going on around here.
In part, this thread is to check if the group notifications really do work again. Maybe we can get back up to the sort of things we were doing around here in the early days. Get an activity going, breathe some life back into the prompt tag collab, something.
The other thing I wanted to bring up, assuming an affirmative on the first thing, is the fic contest I am hosting. It isn't necessarily just for Apple Pie, but since I am the judge, Apple Pie fics are certainly going to be welcome, so I figure I'll bring it to your attention here.
Here's hoping for a successful revival of this group! Would you want anything less for the Most Delicious Ship?
I did not get a thread notification, but I constantly check my groups tab, so I've never understood why they're apparently so necessary for group activity. >_>

My groups tab is usually dominated by threads in the Shipping group that I have no interest in, but disabling thread notifications for that group doesn't affect the Groups tab. It's a matter of filtering, I suppose. I just know that all the groups I really liked participating in keeled over and died when notifications went away.
Testing, testing... Hello? Anyone there?

I got a "notification" just fine. They show in the feed page, not the notification page.
