I am sad to say that the latest episode, when posted on my website....wasn't viewable. I have no idea why.
My current site has been going from bad to bad lately. Last episode I couldn't upload directly so I had to do some jiggery with client programs and...ergh. This time, it uploaded perfectly...I posted it...added it to the Season 3 list...made it public... Aaaand it's not there. I can see it and view it when I'm logged into my website, but no one else can see a thing. Even if you get linked right to the episode page, it's a black box.
I've been stressing about this for the last 3-4 hours and it's possible it's triggered a panic attack of sorts. Honestly, I dunno. I'm afraid that I have no idea how to fix it. I could spend hours sitting on the phone with tech support like I did last episode (about 3.5 hours total I was on the phone with support), but I don't think it's worth it.
What I'd like to do is this:
My new website, fancy, shiny, professionally designed and maintained, is weeks away from completion. It will feature a brand new video player and some other special features that I can't tell you about yet. I think I will hold off on releasing new episodes until that launches.
I'm really annoyed about this, because I know I've barely released any PokéSins this year. This one was all ready to go and it just...isn't working.
If you can give me just a little more of your patience, you'll be able to watch this episode and more in the comfort and refinement that you deserve...on the new website. I plan to make the Hoenn episode next, and at least one more Johto episode. I will post them all on the new website to be viewed as soon as it comes online.
Sorry for messing you around like this. I really hate doing it.
Thank you for your continued understanding and support.

I was able to watch the episode yesterbay by clicking the link that came in e-mail just like usual.

I'm only doing so, so that I can watch them properly, I'm not keeping the files. The player was always pretty much unusable for me (usually refusing to buffer more than 1-2 seconds then stopping for a few second to buffer the next 2 seconds etc.).

Apologies, the episode wasn't asking for a password while it was up so I thought it was a free episode, that can be accessed by everyone. I had no intention to circumvent a patron-only episode.

It is possible to forbid directory browsing for external users, so that would be something to talk to your new website maker about before it goes live.

That's very odd. I have no idea why you could watch it and very few other people could.

Erm. I'm sorry...you've been downloading the episodes? That's not really something you should be doing.
Geran 'Gar1onriva'
No one's supposed to see the files at their root like that. It's technically a way to circumvent the password protection, so please don't tell others they can view them like that.

I know all your episode are allways worth of waiting, don't take a stress and take your time.

That’s wicked dude! Don’t stress, take your time, looking forward to it and have no problem waiting.

If it helps, I saw the new episode pretty soon after upload and it worked fine for me. I’m sorry you and so many others are having this problem though. Take your time with the new website and the Pokésins episodes, I look forward to seeing the results of your hard work!

Just a note, it was working for at least a while. I was able to watch the episode just fine after the initial notifiaction e-mail, though now just getting an "Oops! That page can’t be found" error. Also, I was using a video downloader to download the episode and watch that way. I gave up fighting with the player itself a long time ago.
