Version 2.0 is finally here!

This version has been a long time in the works. Between losing people that were helping out and trying to get a lot of ideas into this version, its been a long trek. You will likely notice many of the changes at a glance, but here they are in detail.

  • Complete UI overhaul
    • I knew my bootstrap based site would never last. So I have gone to great lengths working with Trott to come up with a new UI special to Hat Films. Still built on bootstrap (tried foundation and semantic but they didn't quite fit), but now fully customized.
  • Game joining rework
    • The bonus for not being selected for games is still there, but I have fixed up the system powering this. Trott now has some extra abilities to help things run smoothly.
      • He can now require a certain type of account link to make sure players can join (battle.net requirement for Overwatch as an example)
      • He can now reroll someone who isn't joining or isn't able to join. This will reset their bonus back to where it was, and select a new person to play this round.
      • The selection algorithm has been improved to make it more likely that people who have not played in a given session will be selected before someone who has played already.
  • Cards
    • The home page now has a collection of cards at the bottom. These cards give you details on anything we know has happened. Tweets, new youtube videos and the next live stream for now. You can filter out anything you want by clicking one of the buttons above the cards.
  • Account linking
    • This area has been upgraded. The most notable changes are the removal of PSN (it was never used and pointless) and the change for battle.net to use the battle.net API now to ensure battletags are correct. You may notice previous accounts are no longer here. The steam accounts have been converted to API and will require you to relink them.

I hope everyone likes it. And as usual, let me know if you see anything wrong or needing improvement.
