We proudly present our new game Potala! The game has been especially designed for our site by
Adam Ritchey. We have been playing it for some time now in our test environment and it has proven to be
a very nice strategic game. So give it a try (and give Adam
some positive feedback as well).
The rules may be found here.

Solved a glitch in the calculation of the 'mean' ranking: people were actually rewarded for the
meanness of their opponents. It has been solved, the top players will gradually become meaner.

- Very nifty graphs in the user information! Click on a user's name and then choose Graphs.
- From the user information of an opponent, it is now possible to get a list of all games you
played with that particular player. Just click on the name of the game in the head-to-head results

A large number of changes in this major upgrade.
- Optimized and improved graphics for Trans America. The map is now a static image, therefore it
is no problem to have a more detailed map. The browser will only download it once anyway. The
rails and cities are projected on this map by a lightweight GIF image with 3D effects.
There are still the 5 different map sizes to choose from.
Do take a look at the smallest one, and play 'Trans America by night'!
- Extensions to the ranking system. There are rankings for most points scored, ELO rating,
success rate, points scored by opponents, number of open games and total number of games played
- A Hall of Fame has been introduced. At the end of each month the top 3 players in each ranking list
have the honour of being transferred to the Hall of Fame, so that we mere mortals will never forget
their names.
- Improved user statisitics. All ranking information can be seen in the user statisitics, and
there is also a Palmares list, containing all Hall of Fame entries for the particular player
- Because of the new ranking system, the decision about who gets the points in a subsition game has
to be made during the game
- After you click on 'Games' in the overview of Trans America or Clans, the first active game will
open automatically
- If a player doesn't make his first move within 2 days, he may be replaced.
A big thank you to Yrrah, robobor, Claudine and Dr. Mabuse for their advice.

Server upgrade. The new software offered more possibilities for drawing the map in TA. There is an extra
type of image quality now, a so called GIF image. This is a more schematic map, but very sharp. All current users
get the GIF type by default. The type of map can be chosen in the User profile.
Furthermore, the representation of the playing pieces has changed. The starting point of each player is
now represented by a circle, the target cities are still squares but a little larger.

Implemented a major change for Trans America. You may now choose any point on the board as your starting
point, you don't have to start in one of your cities. This is in accordance with the rules of the boardgame.
