Hey, so I have a backup from mt from... December, and also I found a good little script to export my current Wordpress entries. Now the odd thing is, the backup from MT has carriage returns by the handful, but the new one doesn't.
Does it really matter, will MT still import the entries without CRs? Oh, also, I will need a hand gettin' them in there once the file has been corrected, I tried once already but it imported someone elses 30 or so entries

Yay!
As far as the import issue... you'll need to send Pixy your import file in order to be able to use it. The folder to which it needs to be uploaded for MT to use it doesn't have user access. (Which is prolly why you got the last person's import.)
Welcome to the Dark Side fun!

I've created a patch for MT that lets people on a shared installation load files from their own directories (it looks for the file import.txt in the archive directory) but:
1) It hasn't been tested.
2) Particularly with exports from Blogspot, most of the time the file won't work because you missed one of the settings or downloaded it with Internet Explorer (which corrupts the file).
Things are crazy here at Pixy Central right now, but later this week I'll have one or more solutions for this, so just hang tight a couple more days!

I need to go back and test it. There is definitely a way to do it right - I've done it - but if you don't do it exactly right you get a file that is effectively crap.
