If you ran into an “Error 500” right now, unfortunately, it's not entirely unexpected.

However, sending an e-mail with a note can help.

№ 1 Most Important Thing is the exact error message you received!

Send e-mail to support@tootsville.adventuring.click with this information:

  • Subject: A very brief description of your problem in 3-6 words or so.
  • Describe your problem. Please explain what action you took, and what error occurred.
  • What web browser were you using? (see below)
  • What OS/device were you using? (see below)

Getting your Web Browser identifier[edit]

In your web browser, in the location box, type about: and look for the “Build Identifier” or “User Agent string.” eg:

Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Fedora; Linux x86_64; rv:47.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/47.0
    • The browser you're using (eg: “Firefox”) and its version (eg: “47.0”)
    • Your Operating System (eg: “Linux®” or “Microsoft™ Windows”) and its version (eg: “Fedora 24” or “Windows 10”)
    • Your processor type, eg: “x86-64” or “amd64” — in particular, its “word size,” which is “32-bit” or “64-bit”
    • The type of device: Desktop/Laptop PC, Tablet, Phone, Videogame console or TV set-top device, etc.

So, for example:

   Firefox 47 on Fedora 24 (Linux) on an x86-64 (64-bit) desktop PC

or

   Google Chrome 47 on Ubuntu version “Precise Pangolin” (Linux) on a 32-bit laptop
