I keep seeing a number that indicates multiple alerts for threads and such, but when I look, I only ever see one at a time. Is anyone else having this problem?
 
To quote the Advice to the staff of the VS Battles wiki page:

"Due to a glitch in the programming of the wiki, only updates for a part of the discussion threads appear in the notification bar in the upper right corner of the screen, while the rest remain hidden. To get around this issue, after opening the threads that need to be browsed in a separate window, click the "Mark all as read" button, as this will allow the notification bar to show updates to the discussions that were not shown previously. Depending on the length of time that the update system has glitched, repeating the above procedure several times may be necessary for the notification cache to be completely cleaned and function properly again. It is recommended to make a habit of performing this maintenance at least once every week."
