Compressed files, and less of them, mean a faster site.

The past few weeks the TG team has been hard at work tuning up the site. The main focuses have been faster response times and easier navigation. Rodger has not seen very much daylight lately, and his eyes are glazed and permanently imprinted from the back-glow of his lcd screens. He came out of his hole only for the basic necessities of life, with a focused intent on finishing this most recent project.

With the discovery of some really helpful tools (YSlow in particular), he was able to accurately pinpoint bottlenecks, and remedy them. Page load time for the default home page was virtually cut in half.

New game coming soon!

We are currently working on a new game to add to the Tournament Games lineup. I cannot tell you yet what it is, but it is a very popular game, and will be improved with the addition of tournament competitions! Check back soon, and inquire about becoming a beta tester.

New version of Mental Blocks and Jack Black

Last week, we released updates for Mental Blocks, and Jack Black. The Mental Blocks update included some much needed graphics updates. Jack Black got a face lift also, and a fix for an animation bug that popup up every once in a while.

Sometimes as the game (Jack Black) was running, there could occur a little hiccup on the computer, which can happen on most any computer from time to time. The result was that a played card would appear to fly onto the screen from out of nowhere. This should be resolved in this latest version.

Just go to http://www.tournamentgames.com, and click on the "Download Now" button. At the bottom of the page you will see a link for "Other Downloads". YOU can find the updated game downloads there.

Thanks for playing, and be sure to tell us what you think!
