Release Notes 2010-01-20

It could be Gloucester

Denizens,

Sorry for the false start this afternoon when you couldn't change avatars. Hopefully that's all settled now. Today is a scattering of bugfixes:


 * Updated copyright texts to reflect the fact that we're now in 2010. Yes, I am aware just how dramatically this will increase your enjoyment of the site. You're welcome.
 * Closing the Whirled client while it was still loading would leave the rest of the page in an unusable state. It should now recover more gracefully.
 * Avatar's favourite counts were sometimes wrong. This should no longer happen.
 * Cancelling a pending bling cashout request now correctly lets you submit a new one without waiting for a month!
 * Avatar memories should now work correctly when walking into themed Whirleds -- configurable avatars should retain their settings, for example. Please let me know if there are further problems in this area.
 * Try a little harder to show as many rows of stuff as possible depending on the height of your browser.
 * Your summoned pet should now follow you from room to room! Many apologies for leaving this broken for such a long time.

Why did we fix these and not others? Mostly they were low-hanging fruit, a few were recently introduced. I'll be bugfixing another couple of days, so hopefully we'll have another one of these releases before the end of the week.

Cheers!
