Your link to the beta in this post has extra characters that make it unusable, but the URL works. I'll experiment a bit and see how the beta is working for me.

I am just not sure if I should report it or if it is done.

Can't hurt to report it IMO

Hi all,
Version 2.12.13 is out. Apologies for the delay in announcing an update; it's been a busy week, during which we did some long-overdue work on the beta servers, which may explain some of the problems around logging in. If you are on an older version of the beta, then it's expecting to receive data from the server in a slightly different format, so things won't work. Please refresh your browsers, and if that doesn't work, please do file a report at fallenlondonredesign@failbettergames.com.
I don't have a changelog for this update. Most of the work on the front-end has been unglamorous housekeeping: fixing bugs, adding automated tests, improving performance, and then fixing the bugs I added during the previous steps.
Many thanks for the bug reports so far!

Version 2.12.31 is now up on beta; there are a few changes of note to report.
- A login bug that I introduced around 2.12.15 should now be fixed.
- The beta should now be playable on IE 11 (in that it won't crash on login).
- Reaching Wounds 0 on the slow boat and returning to London (and similar events) should once again display a message to that effect.
- Quotation marks in storylet titles should now display correctly when you're echoing them to your journal.
- Fate Action and opportunity deck refresh buttons should now work, rather than spinning sullenly at you until one of you blinks.
Thanks as usual for all the bug reports; please keep them coming!

Version 2.12.33 fixes a bug that was causing the results of sending an invitation to a social action not to be displayed.

Version 2.13.1 is out on beta. 2.13 happened in conjunction with some changes on the back-end, so you will definitely want to refresh your browsers. The most recent changes have been mostly behind-the-scenes, fixing and simplifying the way that the app updates when you gain/lose items and attributes when playing storylets. Some of these are fixed and some of them will take a little more time.
Thanks, as usual, for your patience and for all the bug reports so far!

Checking out the Beta with my account open through the Storynexus version for comparison...and I've noticed that the beta does not display your Echoes, only showing 0.00 (I currently have 198 Echoes 48 Pence) edited by Deathjack999 on 8/28/2018

Good spot, and apologies for this — I have just deployed an update to 2.13.7 that should fix this, along with a couple of other issues.

Quick Question: Did someone already test what happens if you try to sell 60'000 items or more at once? If not I can test it!
-- Honeyaddict, Scarlet Saint, Paramount Presence pleasure to meet you.
Has some ideas the Masters won't approve of like some items and establishing a Colony in Parabola.
I will accept most social interactions (not duping). I do enjoy role playing as well. Have some possibly still active codes!

Quite a few people! This particular message was related to a bug that was triggered by acquiring a new item or status. I've deployed version 2.13.24, which should hopefully fix it (or at least cause it to morph into a different and more interesting form).

Version 2.13.35 is up on beta now. The changes are mostly small tweaks:
- Retrying a branch on which you have spent a second chance no longer requires actions.
- When renaming a companion, you will be warned if you're using disallowed characters.
- Searching for items on the Myself and Possessions tabs is once again case-insensitive.
- We added some checks to prevent accidental double-sending of social invitations.
- It is once again possible to choose a currency when purchasing Fate or a subscription.
- Social actions should consistently reach the intended recipient.
As usual, thanks for the continuing flow of bug reports.

Version 2.16.6 is up on beta; please refresh your browsers — especially if you log in via Twitter, as we've also pushed some back-end changes in this release. This is mostly a bugfix and optimisation update: the only real change of note is that Facebook login on mobile should be more consistently functional.
Thanks as usual for the bug reports.

I have been extremely forgetful about posting updates here; apologies for that! Work continues, however. 2.16.38 is up on beta.fallenlondon.com (you have probably noticed the version number inching up over the last while).
Here's a short list of changes since 2.16.6.
- Playing branches with cost requirements should now update your Possessions to reflect the items you've spent.
- "They Say..." on your profile is editable again (with a 150-character limit).
- The map icons were a bit lower on mobile devices than they should have been; they're correctly placed now.
- Opportunity card quality requirements in tooltips are a bit easier to read.
- Snippets can be shared.
- We tweaked the layout of equippable items to fix a display bug that was affecting quite a few Safari users.
- The ends of storylets (including changes to items) are handled better than they were before, so it should be harder to get stuck.
- The +/- buttons on the Bazaar buy/sell popup are a bit smarter and more usable.
- Changing equipment on small devices is easier; you can now tap a slot to see a popup of items that you can equip in it.
- Full-screen switching should work on Apple devices now.
- A whole bunch of fixes to the social action invitation screen mean that it should be better-behaved henceforth.
- Payment methods can be deleted.
As always, thanks for the continuing bug reports!
