work just got unexpectedly busy, so I'm going to hold off on claiming any others before the weekend.

(oof, just noticed the duplicate mp3 in the filename. if it's a problem, I can reupload)
No worries. This is queued for PL. If there are PL changes, you can fix the filename, otherwise our MC will take care of it.

Sections 4 & 6 are PL OK.

Section 5 does not appear to have any changes. Can you please check that you uploaded what you intended?

Hi,

I noticed that the length of this file changed quite significantly from the previous version (10 seconds shorter), which seems odd for the changes in the PL notes. Did you change something somewhere else?

I think there's something wrong with the magic window. I'm supposed to have ch16 which is "Between Himyra and the Sun". I have not submitted yet and the chapter after mine is "In the Grip of War", so that should be 17.

Oh dear. I'll sort that out. I noticed I had the section 17 link under section 16, so I moved it and thought all was good. I'll look more closely.

Ah I see what I did. All should be correct now (it's very easy to accidentally drag a section to a new location in the MW, which must be what happened - and then I made it worse trying to fix it :) ).
