New tile theme

While testing previous versions of the game, we found that our “Classic” tileset is not very comfortable to play. We have studied the issue for some time, and made a new tileset – “Neo-classic”. It utilizes the set of characters from the famous Gnome Mahjongg tileset called “Postmodern”. We’re taking the opportunity to thank the Gnome Games developers for the resources, that we have used to make this tileset.

Some screenshots of a new tileset.

We’re continuing to refine this tileset and haven’t yet decided whether it will be added to the upcoming version 0.9 or will be available later as a separate download.

New forum

It’s no secret that our forum has never suffered from an excess of activity. This is partly due to the highly non-trivial interface and very strange ergonomics.
As an experiment, we decided to try using a different forum, it is much more simple and intuitive. Here you will find almost nothing superfluous, but there is everything you need.
For some time the old forum will remain available for reading, but it has no valuable information that we may want to keep forever.
So welcome to our new forum!

Site upgrade, OpenID and spam-fighting

The site software was updated to the latest version.
In addition, we’re returning the OpenID login and closing the site registration.
While the registration was open, the site was inhabited with several hundreds of spambots.
We have deleted a lot of these accounts, but unfortunately, some good accounts may have been deleted as well.
We’re very sorry for that.

OGS Mahjong 0.9 delay

For the past few months we’ve been working to improve the interface of our game. These are tough tasks that require investigation. Sometimes we have to create another task to fulfill the previous one. We were planning to release OGS Mahjong 0.9 at October 10, but, however, we have to postpone it till the end of November. We need this time to complete planned tasks, fix the bugs and test the whole game.
