I clicked on “New Posts” and got strange results. Only three new threads, none of which I’d ever read, then a separator blurb saying, “The threads below have not been updated since your last visit but still contain unread posts.”

The thread there was also a thread I’ve never read.

What up? I took a screen grab if someone wants to see.

Oh, good, I wasn’t the [only one](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=505802). That weirdness lasted about 30 minutes or so for me.

ETA: Seems to have worked itself out now. Really heavy load on the server(s), maybe?
