See, since I did not have access to the fellowship, and Icon could not see nothing (including inviting me for a short period of time), i enlisted harley to go the news archive part of the Chess analysis board (since I could not see it), find the "reply" link near the bottom of the messed up message, and give me the message ID#. I then took that number, along with the Fellowship number - inserted it into a "delete news message post" hyperlink (which only Icon could use) and send that link to Icon to delete the news post that could not even be seen by them! Once that news post got deleted, everything seemed to work fine. (Not sure what actually messed it up)
