March 3rd 2006: Works during the weekend
 Due to some big restructuring in one of our game, the site is likely to be down/closed much of the time during this week end.
Sorry for the outage but it is necessary to make some test and verify that everything is ok before reopening it.
Have (for this weekend only, another type of) fun,
your webmasters. |

February 23th 2006: Spring cleaning
We are removing old games to make rooms for the future games.
We added an automated games removal script that will delete all games finished more than 1 year ago. The database is currently 4.8GB large and have millions of rows of very old games (finished more than 2 years ago).
Running at at the very slow pace of 1 game every minute, it will take something like 60 days to remove all the 80.000 or so very old games.
This will help us having a smaller and faster database.
Have fun,
your webmasters.

And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young
Best wishes to all of you for these holidays.
A new year of games is waiting us all, and we do hope you will be here with us to share the fun.
In the meantime enjoy you holidays, give a hug to everyone you love, and have a wonderful time.
Mhmm, perhaps we put too much sugar in this news... Well, then as soon as the holiday will be finished, we will be here again to shot down you planes, lock you in a prison, wreck your ships, suck your blood, and do our best to avoid you could become a king.
Yes. Much better now! 
Have fun

December 5th 2005: Visual enhancements and other improvements
We worked a lot in the last days. Here there are the results:
Improvements
- Great speed improvement. The site is now faster, and its performance should not degrade too much even when there are many users online at the same time.
- New Statistics pages for Vampiring,
Cartagena
and Viva il Re / King Me!.
- New Your Next Game button in Cartagena game page, showed when there are more games where it's your turn to play.
- A lot of graphic improvements in the Donate page and in several other pages.
- New color highlight effect when your mouse pointer moves over any table row. This improvement can not be seen using Explorer, so now we can definitively say that
our site is better seen using Firefox (or Opera) . Let's say this is our way to ask for a better support to the web standards to the Internet Explorer 7 development group 
Bug fixes
- Fixed a bug in Cartagena game page. The users message window was not moved to the right side of the map when it was your turn and your browser window was exactly 1024 pixels wide. Now it's ok.
- Fixed a lot of errors and warnings inside our pages HTML and CSS code. This means that your browser will be much more happy when you play here
- Fixed a bug in the forum. Now it's possible again to filter the forum messages for Subject or Poster's name.

The new Cartagena beta test ends here.
Thanks to everyone who helped us to improve our site giving us a lot of interesting advices and, please, don't stop doing it. We are always here to hear you!
Have fun!
