Welcome to the New WorthPlaying - Part 2
by Rainier on Aug. 31, 2009 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT | Filed under MOTD
Once we've made sure that the entire archive of articles is in working order, our first new addition will be adding an integrated forum/comments section, which had been broken on the old WP for, ehh ... quite a while.
Apart from that, the weekend was great, Friday and Saturday was smoking hot, 95 degrees (35 celsius for the Euros), but luckily it cooled off on Sunday. Watched the final episodes of "The Jury" (British miniseries) and made a delicious pot roast. Unfortunately, the new site cut into my plans of playing CrimeCraft all weekend, but there's always tomorrow!

Welcome to the New WorthPlaying - Part 1
by Rainier on Aug. 30, 2009 @ 1:05 a.m. PDT | Filed under MOTD
When you see this, it means that you've hit the new WorthPlaying. After many years in the works, it has finally arrived. Longtime readers may have read about or heard us promising this for a quite a while. It has taken three different developers and two complete re-writes, but the day has finally arrived.
We're very relieved, exhausted, happy and giddy that we've finally arrived at this point.
I also want to point out that this is only the first step. While we've already added a few things, there are many more features that are going to be added in the coming weeks.
Special thanks go out to Ricky for making this all possible, Judy for putting up with my constant changes and long days & nights, Michael for being patient and all of our loyal staffers who have stuck with us over the years.
