A Long Long Week
Wow. Between A new release of MeTrivia, A Rithum PR blitz and FFR development, we have had an incredibly busy week.
I am putting the finishing touches on the scroll rate feature for FFR but since it has been such an undertaking, I have migrated the source code from Flash 6 to Flash 9. Flash 9 will allow us greater security among many many other performance enhancements. Starting tomorrow morning I am going to release the Flash 9 version for a day of testing by the subscribers / beta testers. If everything goes relatively well and all bugs are squashed, we will release this update over the weekend to the public.
We also wanted to thank everyone for their support of Rithum yesterday. We actually made the front page of Digg.com and remained on the top of the list for Gaming Industry News nearly all day. In the end we had nearly 500 diggs and enough unique visitors to create a small city. It was really a great boost for Rithum.com and we appreciate all your help.
Our MeTrivia team has also been hard at work trying to get the new Beta 2 ready for release. The new beta will allow anyone to create their own trivia kits and we have ranking for nearly every aspect of the game. The interface has been completely reworked and backend rewritten from the ground up. There are many more features and we are JUST starting to wire up Beta 2. The graphics and milestone should be complete within the next week.
Thanks again to everyone for their support. It’s not easy but we are doing everything we can to expand. I will keep you guys posted on the scroll rate stuff and further progress. The sooner we can get these scroll rate changes working, the better.
Subscribers, Beta Testers and Staff, keep an eye tomorrow morning in the subscriber forum for the link to the beta. I should have it ready by about 8am Central time to start testing. Btw.. we now have given out around 130 @flashflashrevolution.com email addresses to subscribers. The list keeps growing every day.
Cheers,
Synthlight & the rest of the crazy staff at FFR
