Good morning!
We just solved an issue with Sandy's not responding to direct messages on Twitter. She's just caught up and is back to being her usual twittering self.
We apologize for the inconvenience.

A comment on the question "Remind about time A at time B" in I want Sandy:
@Rael: I tried it too and it seems to be working, except in lists (multiple tasks in a single email). Is it possible that it does not work yet in that scenario?
@Aitese: you are asking Sandy to send multiple reminders for the same task, which does not seem to be supported at the moment. Maybe start a new discussion? – Olivier Gourment, on July 24, 2008 13:43

I just used this fir the first time with an actual upcoming meal, at first I exprerimented with the possibility of using the tag for multiple reminders:
Remind me about Cassie's meal at Ginny's in Bromley at 6pm 15th August @reminder 9pm 14th August @reminder 4pm 15th August
The outcome was totally borked:
I added these to your calendar:
#1 Fri, 15/8 6:00pm Cassie's meal at Ginny's in Bromley 4pm
- email reminder at 5:00pm
- tagged with @reminder
#2 Fri, 25/7 7:00am Cassie's meal at Ginny's in Bromley
- email reminder on Thu, 14/8 at 9:00pm
- tagged with @reminder
Maybe this IS possible but I'm doing it wrong? The idea was I needed to know to put some clothes out the night before, even shave perhaps as I usually trot off to work in the morning looking like a bum, but I still wanted reminding in the afternoon as I also rush out of the office like a kid at the end of school and would not get on the right route to the restaurant.
Is there a way to use multiple tags? I decided to tell Sandy to forget these first 2 and tried with just the evening reminder and the system works flawlessly, great work guys!

Hi Olivier. Sorry it took so long — sometimes this is the nature of these things and why we usually don't mention specifics about scheduling, etc. – Rael Dornfest, on July 24, 2008 06:32

This sounds promising. I am just wondering why it was said to be due 6 months ago? – Olivier Gourment, on July 24, 2008 02:04

Eek! I'll check into it right away. Could you please email help@iwantsandy.com with your details so I can check on your account?
I've only seen this happen 3 times (see above) and each time it was a very odd quirk without much rhyme or reason. But we'll get it sorted.

Rael,
I had this problem the other night. Suddenly Sandy started sending my daily reminders and only stopped when I maxxed out the 250 tweets per month to my mobile phone! I couldn't do anything about it as I was on holiday away from a computer at the time so had to switch of phone (was middle of night). Luckily I don't think my mobile carrier charges for overseas text receipt (I was in Rome for my birthday!).
Just wondering if it was a problem to others too?!
Cheers,
Chris

This happened to me while I was on holiday last week.
A daily reminder turned up 60 times before my message limit on Twitter expired.

Checking the Twitter website on my return, it looks like she sent thousands of messages, a long way into the future. Look carefully at the dates above!
It was annoying at the time because it meant I exhausted my message allowance and didn't get any UK election results until I got home!
This has just happened the once, and normally, it's fine.
I've also sent this via the "help" address
Thanks,
Alex

John replied on April 30, 2008 05:17 to the problem "search problem" in I want Sandy:
I was just trying to figure out the multiple line function of "Remember +", and I sent the following e-mail to Sandy:
Remember @birthday
* grandmother 5/2
* grandfather 5/3
* jimmy 5/4
This created a list like you mention, but does not make the individual dates, and only Grandmother's birthday showed up on my calender. It also showed up under Lists in a List titled "Grandmother". After I reviewed my message I realized that I forgot the "+"
When I entered it as
Remember @birthday +
* grandmother 5/2
* grandfather 5/3
* jimmy 5/4
It created each entry as a separate entry, and each Birthday showed up on the calendar. It did not create a list, but worked as expected.
