You may or may not have noticed some changes:
- Daily voting is in. You can now rate games once every 24 hours and I will be resetting the voting periodically.
- All games now have a PLAY NOW! button which links to a flash client. No server side changes are necessary on the part of game admins as it uses a proxy to connect.
- Blue is the new green.

Nice changes to the client. Since I am assuming this is due to a proxy on your side, does this mean your traffic will increase with every open client instance?
Not sure about the blue yet. It needs to grow on me, I guess. What are the chances of getting user-defined themes installed?

The client now connects to a proxy on this server which means that individual games no longer need to serve a policy file for it to work. Yes this will increase bandwidth and server load although I don't see it being a problem unless we get a really huge amount of traffic. It's certainly preferable to trying to get every individual mud to implement their own flash socket policy files.
I went with blue because it hopefully tones in with the forum a bit better and I'd had a few complaints about the green being too garish but I'm open to suggestions for any changes.
I know there is a theme switcher plugin for wordpress so I'll take a look and see if I can get it to work with the site.

You can now edit your own game listings – look for the link at the bottom of the page.
Please let me know if you encounter any problems or find any bugs as it required a bit of hacking to get this working how I wanted it!
