The highscores system has been asked to address the users by name, as it is more polite. So when you send scores now and even if they are rejected, the response should be politely framed and personally referenced.

This new personalisation will be utilised more fully in future to customize messages where it is useful to do so /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Its probably only something that will be used by the highscores addicts, it allows each game to be remotely controlled via a central interface so you can see whats happening in each one, stop and start them, ask them to run for x spins etc.

Sounds very impressive but do us a favor and don't tell Mary about it please or she will have her puter doing headstands /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3rofl3.gif /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3rofl3.gif

Any chance of having some funny comeback for score posting such as
75th to 100th /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3rofl3.gif /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3rofl3.gif as if
50th to 74th /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/poke.gif /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/poke.gif getting there
25th to 49th /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/10___buttkick.gif rocking now
10th to 24th /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/10tantrum.gif /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/10tantrum.gif soooo close
2nd to 9th /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif missed it by |---| that much

Just a suggestion /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3rofl3.gif /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3rofl3.gif

Its certainly possible Tanya. We do receive the odd expletive dotted email when someone loses their #1 score in whatever game, so teasing them couldn't really make it much worse /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
