I've restarted the server with the new game code, and after a few teething problems (a few sounds were in the wrong format) things should be as I want now.

Basically I've tried to change it after the reports of delays in the sound. If you suffered from this please let me know if this has changed things for you, better, worse or no change.

In addition a couple of small changes: PM window now shows a star before the name if there's unread messages (you need to focus the window to let the system know you've read it).

I've also combined the user details (age, sex, location) into the first box on the member page. The two areas for member details weren't really necessary.

Nice change Nick,

I noticed the star at first and thought did I really see a star and then it went.


Seems great though, nice one Nick!

All good Nick.

The sound is really bad though and its not my computer. Its a horrible scraping piercing sound on the randoms & player entry.

The shots sound the same though. Dont know if its just me?

Yep, there was a bonus tourney, entries began 10 minutes after your post and Rd 1 began 10 mins later again. The final was lost in original fashion by me

That was the teething problems I mentioned, a few sounds were at the wrong frequency. It should have been resolved at the same time as the thread's first post, but if it still happens please let me know.

Great - glad it works!

I forgot to mention in the initial post that I had to reset everyone's chat height. I added a new option "Default" to the chat heights, which is what occurred before, eg adjusts between sizes "1" and "2" to fit best according to the available area.

If you refresh the page you'll see a new favourite icon for 8 ball. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon

Control-f5 should do it. Needs to get a new file from cache. It should be an 8-ball, exactly as:
