I have tried about a dozen times in the last few months to launch a proposal for Tall Smart And Fearsome on YKTTW, but after I click the send-button, it took me back to the proposal listing, and my article never being among them (I've used keyword search and the "list from newest to oldest"-option).

It's not present in the launches list either.

Please help before this troper starts losing it (his sanity and his work). Thanks.

Were there any links or potholes in the laconic? That's a known Bug.

Do you happen to have the permanent link to it?

No and no.

One minute... do you mean a permanent page link to Tall Smart And Fearsome? Well, that page is still locked.

I meant the Permanent Link To your Ykttw draft.

I see that the page on /Main does have an Edit History. However, I didn't see any trope examples. I also checked the Cutlist, but no dice.

Well, this is exactly my problem.

I was never given an address of the sort, I just kind of went to the "add your own YKTTW" page and copied & pasted all of my writing in there.

Then I pushed the send - button, and they sent me back to the main YKTTW page.

Send Button?...........

....

....

Wait a second, Did you try to Add a new draft to Ykttw, or did you try to Launch a draft that was already on Ykttw? Your first post describes Launching, but your last post talks about Adding. Those are two different things.

Did you ever See a Launch Button on your draft? Or was it Greyed out?

1. Well, I first went to the button on the YKTTW main page entitled "Add new proposal".

2a. Then I typed in everything I wanted in the page that popped up next.

2b. When I was finished, I pushed a button at the bottom of the page entitled "Send".

3. Then it brought me back to the page from 1.

The main page or the add proposal page?

Well... the page where all the proposals are listed.

It is also the same page which I always get directed to when I aim for YKTTW.
