Redack has a lot of new hosting features which will probably speed up the round changes. Here are the changes that actually affect you guys:
When you die, all of your items will get out of your inventory and go into the room you were in. You will become a "Ghost", who is capable of seeing all rooms but can only reply in the "Dead" thread. Players that abuse this will be turned into "Dead" instead (can't see the other rooms).
The big inventory screen is now separated into categories like the mini-screen is.
You can access role-specific threads in addition to room-specific threads. (ex -- aliens could access the "aliens" thread).
There is now a system for signups. If you have an account, on the official signup post you'll be able to select an option down by where you make your reply. "I'm playing" will automatically add you to the player roster if you weren't on it before, while "I'm sitting this one out" will remove you from the player roster if you were on it. These will also show up in your message like they were actions.
