Hi folks,

Just a very minor update: The "Active Players" list used to just show people who had logged in or made a move in a game within the past five minutes. We've updated it in two ways: 1. It shows players who've done anything on the site in the past five minutes (not just logging in or making a move), and 2. If someone explicitly logs out of the site, we take them off the list immediately (instead of waiting five minutes).

Again, just a small thing (and it's mostly to enable an improvement to notifications which is coming later), but I thought I'd mention it.

Enjoy your games!

This is a very good improvement because the way it was before, logged on inactive people didnt show. Many, myself included, like to compare current players numbers between here and other sites but they were at an advantage before. Used to be comparing apples to oranges, now it is apples to apples.

Good idea !!!
