That sounds pretty odd. I just tried it, and it normally published my random scene just as always. So, when you guys post something, it's automatically a draft, but takes your points, and then? Does it take your points again when you try to publish that draft or when you upload it again (but this time it makes it a proper work)?

That was a multiple choice question xD Did you a) try to publish that work from already uploaded draft (edit draft -> publish) or b) try to publish the same work from your computer (copy-paste/upload file -> publish)?
In either case, can you tell approximately when it happened (maybe it had something to do with the high alert changing cost for works or idk)? And, if you haven't tried, can another user see that draft if you give them a link? If yes (that used to be a bug that occasionally came in handy, but I'm not sure if it was dealt with <.<), you could send the links to drafts to me if it happens again and I can try publishing it for you (if it lets me do anything and acts like a published work, that is). Not the best solution, but a kind of one, at least, until someone with actual expertise can look into it? =]
Edit - by "publishing for you" I mean, by editing your drafts just as much so they get published. They'd stay the same and under your name, of course. I'm just not 100% sure I can do that until I try >.>

Being confused, I went to my wall to check if it had ever been down.

Hm...I can't get to Raven's profile either, even though I don't seem to have trouble with other people.
Here's the exact error message I got (using Chrome): Spoiler

It happened once before, but I thought it was a one time thing. Also, I got the points from my review, and the review submitted. However, I don't get to see the "here are the points you earned" page. Just that. - Your operating system. Windows 7

Hey @RavenMoonStone, the problems (accessing your profile and the review issue) should both be fixed now. Let me know if you run into any further problems!
So...is YWS still supposed to be accessible via Tapatalk? I tried using it again recently since Safari still likes to log me out all the time, but it won't let me access the forum. I tried deleting and reinstalling the newly-updated app, but it didn't work.
Weirdly enough, I'm still getting the notifications from YWS. Just a few minutes ago, my phone buzzed from a mention before I even got the notification on the website. However, when I tried getting to the forum itself, it just tried to load for a moment then said "Website not available. Try again later."
I realize this might an app issue rather than a site issue, but I thought I'd ask since other people noted problems too.
I'm on an iPhone 5S running iOS 8.1.

Tapatalk issued out a new update this past week, so I'll go ahead and install that tonight. The new update is supposed to fix a slew of bug issues so hopefully that'll resolve all problems.
The new Tapatalk update has been installed, so everything should be working now. If anyone still runs into issues, you might need to uninstall then reinstall the app on your phone.
