AO3 Changes Coming

In mid-December AO3 is doing a major update that will log out everyone.  If you don't have the right email and password, you won't be able to get back in.

I have checked my data, and it claims to be correct.  However, I have a serious problem with password decay and other account loss, so don't be surprised if that account dies anyway.  >_<

That's why LastPass is a *convenience* for me. I keep all the passwords (site, userID, email, password and anything else site specific that needs to be remembered) on 3x5 cards. They take up a couple of the "standard size" boxes.

If they "crash", I just have to pick up the cards and re-alphabetize them.

Yeah, if there's a fire, they're toast, but then I'd have far more to worry about than my passwords.
