Is there a limit on daily posts?

Does anyone know if there is a limit on the number of posts we can publish each day? The reason I ask is, yesterday I wrote more than 30 posts, but I realized last night that at least the last two I wrote, have disappeared. They definitely published, but then disappeared a few minutes later. One was about a Santa in Nagoya, the other about Santa in Tamadairanomori. There maybe more but those two are definitely missing.

    I never thought there was a limit, but I wonder if the system has some kind of auto setting in place in case of spammers or something. That's the only thing I could attribute it to if other posts have been working!

    I've just re-added the Tamadairanomori one... hopefully it will stick!

    I can see the "shell" for the Tamadairanomori one if I search for it, but then it's like the blog itself has been deleted when I try to click into it.

    @genkidesu thanks a million for checking. The two Santa posts I wrote this morning have disappeared, but currently the post I wrote about "the kanji of the year" is still there. I wonder, as you pointed out, about an auto setting. Maybe its set up to restrict too many posts about the one topic. I'll give it a couple of hours and if "the kanji of the year" post is still there, it may mean that I just can't write about Santa for a while! Or it could be fixed completely, but I'll hold off on the Santa posts for a day to see! Thanks again.

    @BigfamJapan I think it's related to how short your interval between post. I'm also your follower, and since yesterday, I've got many emails related your new blog post. I think...... - CMIIW -

    @andikurnia Oh, wait, can you get email notifications from City Cost? I wouldn't mind it, to keep up with what our bloggers are sharing.

    I'm seeing duplicate posts show up in the blog section.

    I've been getting 504 Bad Gateway errors a bit when blogging today, so if anyone is writing stuff over the weekend just make sure you're typing it in a Google Doc or something and not directly into a webpage here...you run the risk of losing all your text if it's not copied somewhere :(

    @TonetoEdo I thought you got them automatically once you followed someone? Or maybe I ticked something at some point and just have no recollection of it!

    @andikurnia thank you. It was the repeated pattern too frequently.

    @genkidesu I was getting that on the weekend when I wrote from my phone, but not on the laptop. I think I got it on Monday too. But it seems okay now.

    @BigfamJapan I don't remember ticking anything either, I get email notifications. However, sometimes they go to my gmail "promotions" tab rather than my main inbox. Maybe others who aren't getting email notifications might be experiencing something similar.

International cuisine that's hard to come by?

In my region - Chiba-Saitama - there are many Thai, Indian, and Vietnamese restaurants serving authentic flavours. Which international cuisines do you see underrepresented in your area? Have you found any rare gems in the Kanto region? I miss Greek/eastern Mediterranean food the most...

Recommendations for next Christmas?

While its somewhat fresh in your mind, what gifts came into your house this Christmas and / or New Year, that you thought were really nice things to receive and / or really good buys, that you think might make a good present for someone else in the future? As you might see in the product reviews, I am going through some of the things I bought for the kids this year and thinking of what I was really happy with. And already thinking of next year!

Under the radar winter festivals

There are some winter festivals that get a lot of hype, like the Sapporo Snow Festival, for instance. However, as someone who doesn't like crowds, I enjoy lower-key festivals a whole lot more. Do you have any favorite winter festivals that aren't really tourist-trappy? What makes them fun or unique?

Growing Mushrooms

Here's for a weird hobby. I just saw a video by an American Youtuber that I plan to watch about growing shiitake mushrooms. From what I've seen, it probably needs a bit of space. There was a local market in Fukuoka Prefecture that had a "mushroom room" where they grew and sold mushrooms like maitake and eringi. I also saw a video of a couple in Paris that built a mushroom growing shower room! The local hardware store sells "seeded" logs and shiitake mushroom growing kits. I have seen the logs around people's homes on occasion. It seems like a very odd, but sustainable hobby. Has anyone tried it, or is anyone interested to try this? I wonder how involved or beginner friendly it is.
