Hey Denny - Just played the super tournament - It had the correct start time but name at the top is "threat" theme. - While I don't mind having a threat time of 10.23 - it's just worth mentioning since you asked :O)

My recent play wasn't showing the most recent play. So I played a 10x6 and it's my most recent game and it's listed #6 and the first are five games listed for 2/8.

redberet - we had some time problems. It should settle out. cellmate - wow, that's weird. So far a I know we're delivering the same HTML/js. I'll try to figure it out tomorrow.

MrFixit, it seems the first five games listed won't budge, each game I play is getting listed at #6. Elo is showing correctly.

Wouldn't it be better to stop tournaments until everything is sorted out? Also long after the midnight (server time), I still saw previous day's daily streak active. So we know there is a time issue. Maybe the end of day procedure took place several hours late today?

I don't think it ever supported emojis. Musta just been pure luck if it did. Are emojis given some Unicode value or something? And yeah, some timed stuff didn't run. Imma let a day go by and see if it corrects itself. If not I'll fix. Denny

3rd try (my previous message disappeared.. I did copy/paste lines from the Elo rating page) regarding Elo Rating, for example : JackK 2161.965 1 0.16 he did not play a game today and the change shows 0.16 which is the change of yesterday. There was no midnight reset i guess anyway, it will work tonight i guess

Hey Denny, what happened to the stats ???? As of around 4:30 pm today, I had won 50 games of Winnable 12X1 and I just checked and have NO games won today for 12X1. I played & won a game and it shows me as winning "1" game today.

emojis - something is different with Mime type apparently. Apparently anything that's not a regular character is causing a fails. I'll study it but it's not top priority. mardon3 - you have to be logged in to post here so somehow you're logged in ok. What happens when you click Play? What browser and all that? Punster - where should I be looking? Indiv game stats, cumulative, your personal?

Punster -- I think I see it. You're talking about your individual scores. Altho you've been winning lots of games your daily streak is 1.

Message:
Under 12X1 Winnable "Scores" for Punster, when you click on it, then click on Recent Play, it shows the 51 individual games that I won, but under 12X1 Winnable Daily, for Punster, it shows that I only won "1" game today. It showed me with 50 games won today, around 4:20 pm Eastern Time and when I came back to play a little after 8:00 pm Eastern time and won a game, it showed that I had only won "1" game today.

It appears that some daily stats (the daily variant score as described by Punster and the Elo change to name two) started a new day early this evening, perhaps 24 hours after the new server went online.

I think you're correct WRAC. cron was still running on UTC time from when the server came up. I think I've got it fixed now tho.

Denny No problems with Freecell -- except I'm unlucky at Lucky13 -- but I haven't been able to get Winnable to even boot up for the past couple of days. Help! Is this related to the switch?

Denny, so the 50 games that I won by yesterday afternoon and showed as won on the system are now gone ? Even though the Recent play still shows them as won. I see that the daily totals for 12X1 W don't show up in the summary totals for the 7th or 8th.
