Hello, Im posting this a day later than usual because I was up programming until 5 am and decided to go to bed instead of working longer. So I ended up getting some sleep and it is now nearly noon. There are a lot of changes this week and most of this was live as of last night. I didn't decide to take screenshots for these because I already am posting the changelog late and I want to get it out and start on the next update. (That and family is visiting me today) Anyway letsa go...
