Referrals Fixed & Live Badges
Sunday, March 14. 2010

It seems that the referrals page hasn't been connecting to the database correctly, so while referrals were getting recorded, they just weren't showing up. If you go to the referrals page it will update your info for you, so I have a feeling there will be a lot of you with free points waiting.

Also, a new feature has been added, called Live Badge which is a live updating image badge that can be used as a forum signature. Post in the comments if you have any requests to improve the Live Badge.

Blinds
Sunday, March 14. 2010

A recent change was made to keep people from sitting out in cash games to miss the blinds, but it introduced a new problem of causing people to pay blinds even if they didn't miss the blinds while they were away. You will now only have to pay the blinds to sit back in if you have missed the blinds.

Chip Register
Sunday, March 14. 2010

The chip register has been removed and now all sales from your shops will go straight to your pocket. All current chip register balances have been added to your total chips. The chip register page now has a list of the last 25 sales rather than the last 10. There is now no limit to the amount of deposit limit upgrades for your bank accounts (if you want to protect the chips from random events), and interest will be paid up to 2,000,000 chips.

Another Table Bug
Sunday, March 14. 2010

Using a similar technique to fix the previous bug due to fractions of a millisecond differences in code execution, a bug that sometimes froze tables when a user timed out should now be fixed. You could recognize this bug when a user timed out and folded or checked twice in a row which either froze the table or just messed up the hand.

Hand Skipping Bug
Saturday, March 13. 2010

This has been a quite elusive bug due to the fact that there have been several ways discovered that cause this bug to happen. For those of you that don't know, this bug caused a hand to be started and then immediately after a new hand showed as being started which caused a wide array of issues afterwards.

This bug has been narrowed down quite a bit and doesn't happen near as often as it used to, but there has still been an issue of timing (when looking at thousandths of a millisecond) that would still cause this to happen on occasion. This has now been fixed. However, if you do encounter something like the described bug, please submit a ticket since there could still be other things that cause this type of bug.

Royal Flush Jackpot Updates, pt. 3
Saturday, March 13. 2010

A rake won't be taken from an uncalled bet or raise anymore. So for example, if the pot is at 500 and you bet 1000 chips but nobody calls, the rake will be 8 chips instead of 23.

Royal Flush Jackpot Updates, pt. 2
Saturday, March 13. 2010

The rake is now taken from all Sit and Go's that have a buy-in of at least 500 chips. You can also win the jackpot from these tables as well. The bug that takes a rake from a bet/raise that isn't called on Cash Games will be fixed shortly.

Roayl Flush Jackpot Updates, pt. 1
Saturday, March 13. 2010

The rake amount has been lowered to 1.5%, and 50% of this gets added to the jackpot. A rake is only taken on hands that have a pot of 500 or more chips, and you can only win the jackpot on a hand with a pot of 500+ as well. More updates shortly.

Royal Flush Jackpot
Saturday, March 13. 2010

A new jackpot has been added to the Jackpots page. There is now a 3% rake on Texas Hold'em Cash Games, and proceeds of which go into a Royal Flush Jackpot. As you can probably guess, you must win a showdown with a Royal Flush in order to win this jackpot.

SnG Blinds Fixed
Monday, March 8. 2010

So the blinds were intended to be going up to 500/1000 for quite some time now, but apparently they weren't working correctly. Turns out there was a little typo hiding in the code capping the blinds at 200, so now they should be working correctly and going up to 500/1000.

Post Big Blinds Bug Fixed
Monday, March 8. 2010

The bug that caused you to go negative at a cash game where you were posting the blinds early to sit in has been fixed. Also, if you are pushed all in on a blind, it will correctly show the amount of chips you put into the pot in front of your seat.

Safety Deposit Box
Monday, March 8. 2010

The Safety Deposit Box is no more (nominated for shortest lasting feature), and all items/points have been returned. However, the idea behind it is not lost. A new feature that was originally planned a long, long time ago will be taking its place sometime down the line, and more details will be available about it when that time gets closer (don't worry, it doesn't involve a faulty backpack).

Morale Updates
Monday, March 8. 2010

Morale is now more integrated into different areas of the game. Also, morale has been revamped in poker play so that it better reflects what happens while you play (you get more morale if you win with a better hand, and you lose more if you lose with a better hand).
