Thanks all for your feedback.
Some replies...
Alex:
Social media and newsletters would be a good addition. We would need people to deliver this though, it's not something I'd personally have time to keep on top of and if it wasn't done well it could be counter-productive. The other thought I had on this was that a newsletter should not step on the toes of Andy Burnett and the magazine (not saying it would - just that it shouldn't).
Non-members or people who are not logged in shouldn't be able to access the member-only content. The member-only content is the live grades and games lists (with stats etc). Currently I don't think those who are marked as non-members can see this stuff? Or is it some other content you thought should not be available to non-members?
We will look into improving the news features in time. There are some broken archive links and whatnot on the website that we will fix at some point too.
Paul:
I think when images start to appear in news articles it will look less dominated by text. At the moment I completely agree with you. Will have a think on how we can introduce more graphics in a relevant way.
Gary:
Please try logging in to the website now. We've been going through and approving registrations every two hours or so, so even if you haven't received an email to confirm your registration has been approved you should still be able to login (because you actually have been approved). The email systems have had a few issues because a lot of emails have been being blocked by ISPs. Please do check spam and junk mail folders and mark our ones as "not spam". We have made quite a few changes in the last 24 hours to the server configuration so less of our mail should now be being blocked - which is definitely good news.
I will update the results data. We haven't uploaded any files from around mid-February, which is the reason for this data being missing. Sorry about that - should be up to date soon.
Andrew
