People are occasionally having problems with nominations. Teething problems are common with new changes.
The most common problem is making mistake on their nomination, pressing "Post Now", rather than "Review Message", then trying to correct the mistake on their reply (not the original post). The end-result is that the anagram becomes attributed to the nominator not the author.
Helpful tips to overcome this:
1. With all nominations, please use the "Review Message" button.
2. If you have made a mistake, then use your browser's back button and correct the error, and review the message again.
3. If it is correct, then press: "Post this message"
I hope this helps and will mean less work for me to look out for and correct mistakes.

Thanks, Larry (our sometimes spokesperson) for the enlightenment; these three top troubleshooting tips are marvellous.
Nevertheless, more things we must remember when posting to the Forum:
1. When Meyran Kraus has an anagram nominated within a particular category, you might as well not bother posting your pointless one - as he will win the competition himself!
2. Note: please check both the archives prior to being tempted to post discoveries like "A carton of cigarettes - I got a taste for cancer", "A ten-inch dick - Nice and thick" and "Astronomer - Moon-starer."
3. Larry will prohibit, or even remove without comment, bothersome posts (like this unwholesome abomination) that attempt to anagram his messages.
Best wishes,
Adrian.
