Don’t panic! This is supposed to happen. The recently updated lists are refreshed once every hour to ease the load on our poor server. This means that it could take anything upto 60 minutes for your fic to appear in these lists. However, your fic will show up instantly on the category pages, and you will be able to link directly to your fic from your own journal/website without waiting. The recently updated lists run an hour behind the rest of the site because they are syndicated to other sites accross the web. Syndication can significantly increase the load on our server, so we only update these lists once every hour.
