Hi folks,

The update is live! Please do be sure to check out the "What's New" page (http://www.pocket-monkey.com/help-whatsnew.jsp), it has a lot of useful information in it as well as a list of the various changes/improvements we've made.

Please also be sure to check out this forum thread about an important change to how game resignations work.

I want to particularly thank Wendy, my better half, for doing all of that hard work on the color themes and just generally being willing to put up with not having a husband more weekends than not. Thank you, Wendy!

And all of us at Pocket-Monkey want to say a very, very grateful "Thank You!!!" to all of the players who helped us test the update!! They are, in no particular order:

THANK YOU SO MUCH for improving the message page to allow for deleting multiple messages! I just cleaned out like 900 or so messages! (Probably made a dent in your storage space lol) I like the option to "Select All" of the messages, but since that doesn't activate the checkmarks, you can't Select All then go through and hand select one or two to save. That would be a nice option to have in the future if it's possible. I just decided it wasn't worth saving the few I would have liked to have kept. The old way of deleting one at a time was horrible! THANKS AGAIN!!

Hi John,

Thanks. Just for others reading this thread, John told me later that Junebug's problem was solved by installing the latest Java on her system. I think all she actually needed to do was clear the Java cache but that can be a bit of an obscure process if you haven't done it before, and besides, having the latest is a good idea, so...

Hi,

We'll start sign-ups tomorrow or the day after on some tournies; they won't start for about two weeks. We need to give things time to settle down before we start tourneys.

Yup, we have several new games planned. Now that we've got the bulk of the update done, it's a lot easier for us to make ongoing improvements.

Thank you, Thank you, Love it all you did a good job.
Made my day. Love the new colors too. I find it is easy to get around the site, and starting new games,so far I have had no trouble at all. Oh glad I can put them icons off.
can see the page better and takes up less room on my screen.
You have out done yourself. I'am now looking forward to the tournaments and new games bring it on,
Do hope you are planing a vacation for you and your wife. you need one after all your hard work.
