hi all
Sorry for the downtime, I had to make a number of major changes to the site during which time there couldn't be any game activity.
The most visible change is the game info page where all the information which was under separate tabs has now been combined into a single page. Hopefully this will make things less confusing.
Secondly I have completely changed the way game messaging works, there's now a separate section at the bottom of the game Join, Info and Player pages that can be updated and posted to independently of the main page. This means you can now post and receive messages in the middle of playing a game for example. I've completely dropped the 'Comms' tab from the actual Flash Player as it's not very visible.
Other than that there's been some minor change around fixing bugs in the forums - hopefully the unread icon will behave itself a bit better going forward. For a full list of changes please see the change log.
Please let me know what you think of the changes, if you have any more suggestions I'd love to hear them. Thank you all for the great feedback so far. Next up I'll look at updating the home page most likely.
cheers
Tom

18/11/2009 Fix thread read icon - note
18/11/2009 Fixed timestamp of the Last Poster column displaying incorrect time
I'm not sure either of these are fixed for me (Firefox).
Lol Ohhhh, it does the opposite now :P The Last Poster gets updated with the correct date/time of the last post, but the Thread date/time gets updated with that time as well... silly snake

ditto on IE 7, and the last unread post icon doesn't work (or is it just me still?)
Huge improvements. I don't pay attention to the forum stuff because it's all too confusing for me even when working correctly.
But the Comms is a huge, huge improvement and the game info is also much better. Full Speed Ahead KK!
