It looks like there are similar problems with Firefox vs. IE. Firefox doesn't seem to be able to embed hard returns.

Testing Firefox posting.

This should be on a new line. But it doesn't appear to be in preview.

Does anyone use Chrome? I have it but not on this computer.

Ah, okay. It seems to post okay after you click add message but the preview feature does not display it with the correct spacing.

Well, I'm getting tired of talking to myself now. Maybe I'll go play a solo game of Le Havre...

OR MAYBE...

I'll notice that we seem to be on Pacific time. John, is there a setting somewhere for timezone? I'm posting this at 6:04pm EDT.

I'll check in to the preview (I was able to reproduce it) and the time zone issue.

By all means, everyone post any problems they notice!

The notify stuff seems to work fairly well. Not only do you get a link to the updated thread you also get the text of the reply posted.

Clicking on recent topics and recent posts seems to only display public forums and posts, even if you're logged in. Not a big deal for me since the notify messages are way cooler now...

Google Chrome test

Seems to have the same problem as Firefox, stripping the line breaks in preview.

I find it very hard to read the posts when they show the newest messages at the top... is there a way to reverse this? It's just wrong!

There's a setting I can set to reverse the order of the display, this is just the default. I actually like having the new messages show first, though it does take some getting used to. I'll see if I can figure out what other people think.

I get a site error when I try to click on the 10/10/2009 game day report. The 9/26/2009 report loads fine.

Jerry,
I think that may just be because John's been on vacation and hasn't updated it from the game day he wasn't even at

Jeff, that is indeed true, the error is because I haven't put in the game day results yet. That being said, it shouldn't dump you to the error page, that was an oversight on my part. It's fixed, I just haven't uploaded the new code yet. Obviously, all of this is still in 'Beta'... Thanks, Jerry, for letting me know!

Hi John,

Is there another forum besides "General"? The total thread count (11) doesn't match up with the number of threads in General (9).

Cheers,
PP

Yeah, there's some background stuff, so the count won't be exactly right to anyone but me. You should see one more now, though.
