Cool, I thought it may be just for Team games, but wanted to make sure :)
- Fixed bug where surrenders when 2 players were remaining could result in the wrong player receiving the 'Your surrender has been accepted' notification.
- Allowed one player to surrender against a single remaining team
- Added a link to all WarGear emails offering the option to 'Unsubscribe' to future emails with a single click on a link
Changed factories to be a per-territory (not global) setting:
- Also fixed bug where adding / removing territories in a continent resulted in the factory setting being cleared
Great stuff! Thanks again Tom!
Oh my lord, The new factories are up and running!? Oh Joy.
Enhancements
- Added game mod to game lists below board name (refresh to get updated style sheet)
- Added game scraper to return ranking points gained by cheaters back to players who lost to the cheater.
- Added link to report cheating (at the bottom of every game page)
Bug Fixes
- Fixed bug where it was possible to start non-teamplay games on games where teamplay only is allowed
- Fixed bugs in dates showing on Charts page and added 'Quarter' button
From now on any threads reporting cheating will be deleted - if you suspect a player is cheating then please use the link at the bottom of each game page to report your suspicions to an administrator.

just to clarify: on the game info page not the launched player page.

I added it to the bottom of the game player page as well.

So I think I might have accidentally reported myself as a cheater :)
Was curious about how the link worked, so I clicked it. It brought up a screen with my name and my opponent's name. The text said, "Name the player you suspect of cheating...etc" so I clicked on my name. It took me to my profile page and the "report cheater" form had disappeared.
Did that action sent a notification to you, tom?

This is awesome... Let's keep the self incrimination button!

I'm fairly certain that wouldn't actually send a notification, that just links to the Player's Profile page. You would actually have to click Submit in order for it to be submitted. Although it would probably be nice if there was a checkbox for which player you are choosing (probably without the ability to enter yourself) and then you could enter the freetext info. With Submit not available until actually select a player (and perhaps enter text).

Some text should be required. This will not only prevent accidental submissions, but it will also help with the evaluation of the accusation.

+1 here. Prevents typos from being a problem.
And, yes, we should keep the self-incrimination button. But only if insanity pleas are admissible in the defense. :)
P.S. M, I'm being facetious again!
If no text is typed then no submission is made. ATH it only send a complaint if you hit the submit button.
Bug Fixes
- Timeouts leading to History load errors should now be fixed
- Fixed bug with factories where if a factory assignment results in the last neutral player territory being assigned this added an extra blank player (see http://www.wargear.net/forum/showthread/1796plast/Player_tally_does_notsomething_#last)
Tournament tie breaking has now been implemented as per the recommendations in this thread: http://www.wargear.net/forum/showthread/1392/Solution_for_Tournament_Tiebreaker_Method
These changes are not retrospective to Finished tournaments but will apply to all future tournaments including those in progress. You should now see the tie breaking calculations on each tournament page.
Tournaments are now decided by:
Swiss System: Wins, then Sum of Opponents Scores (SOS), then Sum of Opponents' SOS (SOSOS).
Round Robin: Wins, then head-to-head, then Sum of Defeated Opponents Scores (SODOS).
Elimination: No change
In the event that these fail to break the tie, it is called a tie and noone gets the win. By analysing past tournaments it's been determined that this scenario would have happened only once in WarGear tournament history.
When a tournament ends, the value used to determine the winner will be highlighted in Red on the tournament page.
Enhancement
Factory bonuses are now shown in a separate column. On balance I think it is preferable to always show these - it would be confusing for players to sometimes be able to see them and other times not depending on the designers viewpoint.
- Fixed bug where teamplay games could not be started from board submission page (http://www.wargear.net/forum/showthread/1569/Teams_and_Review_Games)

Thanks Tom! This is really nice. I'm not sure where you would put this, but it would be eve better if there was a total for each of these now. Maybe at the end of the list of continents/bonuses, you could just put (TOTAL: N)?
