Just to bring to everyone attention that a friend of mine Derek Lovell is starting the launch of his game, Byline. I've seen this game evolve over the last 4 years and he's finally getting it to the point of publishing. It's a great worker(ish) placement game is very thematic. Anyway his sign up plage has just gone live and I'm sure it's something many of you would enjoy. Please have a look and sign up for notifications as he's a first time designer he will need all your support. To say again it's a great game lets help him get it though Kickstart and on to ours shelves! https://mailchi.mp/talonstrikes/dvat1qiyx5?fbclid=IwAR1Fal7JNFG-mz1ODKxNsCsS1MmW8lJrE0_xiudLfIoQTNAqcbyJlmZPyn0

Friend Game is about to be published-Byline

In case anybody missed it, the two games of PowerBoats and Flamme Rouge down for this week are actually markers for a proposed mini-tournament of racing games. We already have 5 players, which is enough for one table, if we get another 3 (or more) that'd could be two tables. In which case we'd swap some players between tables mid evening - also good way to play with some different peeps than usual.

I've just deployed the notifications system. When logged in you should now get a bell in the nav bar. When you have a notification this will have a red dot, clicking on the icon will show all of your pending notifications and clicking on one will take you to the relevant page.Currently you should see new notifications for:<ul><li>Someone suggesting a new game</li><li>Someone joining a game you signed up for</li><li>Someone commenting on a game you are signed up for</li><li>Someone comments on a post you created or have commented on</li></ul>Feel free to post if you think we need more.

Nice one.  Once again thanks for the work you are doing on this.

Thanks a lot Dan! This will be a huge improvement for the site!

With the carpet now down in the upstairs room, the club will normally use the front bar (as before) and the upstairs room. We will be using our new tables, which are stored in the upstairs room. There are 4 "standard" size tables (6' x 3') and 2 "large" tables (6' x 4'), along with the fixed table in the front bar.Except for table 1, the tables can potentially be set up in either room. For the drop-down list, we have allocated the large tables to the upstairs room, as the standard tables will be easier to move. These are just the default locations - they can be rearranged if needed.We are also aware that some people have found the upstairs room to be too noisy. We are looking at ways to improve the acoustics. In the meantime, if you do not want to play in the upstairs room, please specify a downstairs table if available. If not, put a note in the comments and we will find another table for you to swap with.

A big thank you from me to whoever implemented the displaying of names under the icons for game sign ups. A big help 😊👍🏻.

Didn’t see the site improvements message when I was doing this. 

I now see it was Dan, so cheers for that Dan.
