1. Server situation (downtime)

The server has had a number of problems recently for which I apologize. The hosting providers have detailed this is due to upgrading their infrastructure. Note the actual server has been fine, no downtime at all, but the problems occurred when replacing and configuring switches to the outside world.

I am looking into other hosts, but it's timely and I've prepaid until 3 months time. I don't mind losing some of this, but I wish to wait at least until the end of February to allow a chance for it to improve.

2. Watch game at any time

I'm working on this when I get time, it's a serious change and will take a few weeks more, minimum.

This will also fix a couple of long standing bugs where the balls would overlap with each other or the cushion. Also the bug where games can be frozen when an opponent leaves simultaneously when you have illegally potted the black.

3. New adverts

I'm testing some new adverts (on funkypool initially) at the moments, including a few which show at the bottom of the page, any problems please let me know.

Another suggestion Nick:

would it be possible to stop the chatbox rolling down when you are trying to scroll up? its impossible to find a result or something that was said in the chatbox because annoucements, new text, results etc all stop the scrolling up.

is there any reason why this is so?
