Everyone has been asking me to post something about what's next for the site. I'd like to start slowly addressing what are thought to be the sites major bugs. I'd also like to start doing small features on a regular basis.

So, to get me caught up on everything, please post you most important request for dev work here.

PS. Thanks for your patience. My job and family have taken quite a lot of my attention lately.

I'm working on multi-table tournaments. Should be fun.

- better looking tabs
- turn only sound option
- dates added to reviews
- account confirmation link added for new players
- can't add unconfirmed players as friends (bugfix)
- average $ per hand added as stat
- busts added as stat (# of times you caused someone to loose all chips)
- fixed double sitting glitch
- database cleanup for a faster server

There are a few small changes for July the most important of which is the much requested advisor log (not to be mistaken with the advisor blog!) The advisor log simply tracks advisor changes to account permissions. It requires advisors to give a brief explanation of the change. The change will be seen on the user's account in the reviews section. The list of all changes can be seen at /advisorLog.

Other changes include simplification of the HTML layout for the site. The goal is to look cleaner and focus more attention on the game than the site itself. You'll notice some links have been removed,which may be hard to adjust to, but the goal is to at least test out an technique for search engines.

There are some other minor fixes.

By the way, advisors can post blog entries like this if they'd like. The topics can be anything. If you're an advisor and you want to post something important think about posting it on this blog so it stays at the top.

Today I uploaded some small updates to the server mostly to focus on using the wall on profiles. The idea of a wall is common with social networks and was here previously. It was replaced briefly with Player Notes/Reviews with the intent that social network features were going to be provided on a parent site. However, its clear that the community would rather the network stay on this site rather than be spread out. This is the motivations for the updates at the beginning of the month.

This small update is to make the wall a bigger focus. Reviews have been moved off the overview page. You can now post messages to a players wall directly from the overview page (if you are their friend). If you're not their friend you can request to be added by adding them as your friend. Once they add you, you can post on their wall.

I hope the posting on a players wall helps you communicate with friends on this site and makes this place even more friendly.
