Folks,

Just a quick note: We did a small site update this morning. Most changes are invisible, bugfixes and such, but a couple are worth noting:
  • The Current Games page now shows a "Must Move By" column, which tells you when the next move in the game must be made. The games are listed in order of urgency - e.g., the ones where a move needs to be made soonest are near the top.
  • You can send a player a game invite directly from their profile - just choose the game type from the drop-down and click Invite. This saves a step, making it a bit more convenient. (A more significant update to game invitations is in the works.)
  • The recent problem with Mill games ending prematurely has been fixed; the games that were affected will be restored within the next couple of days.
Unfortunately, this update couldn't include the fix for WebTV "game skipping" and other such issues, or for the game invitation problems. More on those later.

Enjoy your games!

I forgot to mention: If you must move in a game within the next five days, the "Must Move By" for that game is shown in boldface. (Just so you don't wonder about it.)

The "Must move by" column is a good idea, but what about a change in "Must move in" i.e. "2 days 4 hours". I think could be more useful.

I second that, it should be an easy change, I think.

LOVE! the new invite function! Nice work. My ISP gives me a bit of free web space, can the pocket monkey logo be used to link and refer people to here? Of course I would mark it with the Jock Murphy (tm)
