Hi all and happy new year,

There's a new version available for download from the front page. Changes include:
* Added: option to choose to display drop down list of tipsters or not on fixtures pages.
* Added: option to import a list of tipsters from a users file.
* Added: options to customise "Home team", "Away team" and "points" text.
* Added: option to make all rounds visible (non-blind).
* Added: option to globally set points multipliers for a selected team.
* Changed: file output options have been shuffled around into a more logical structure.
* Fixed: Points multipliers must now be greater than zero.
* Fixed: Daylight savings now handled correctly.
* Changed: Tipsters must now have unique names.

Unfortunately there were a pile of good suggestions that I didn't get around to implementing. Sorry, I've been busy. I'm hoping to get another release out before the start of the AFL season with another feature or two, but don't hold your breath!

The hosting service has been re-launched for 2007.

There have been a couple of changes since last year:
You can choose your timezone from a number of Australian timezones, or UTC. The choice of timezone affects the timestamp that appears in tipping confirmation emails.
If a tipster forgets to tip for a game, or forgets to enter a margin, then the tip for that game is shown in red on the confirmation page to grab their attention.
Late tips are now logged in the error log file, previously they would only be noted in the confirmation email.
