PXC Updates November 10th

The website has updated, but the announcements page is currently down. Basically it seems that they have "Pimp'd my leaderboard". Have a look.

It's more than just that! They've also changed the background to a more purply hue! Oooh purply!
And if that wasn't enough, they now have a MUCH larger stockists list on the "Buy Cards" Page.
And I thought the milkshake update was unsurmountable!

ALSO! If you click on a card in someones profile, it tells you who solved it first and when, the first 10 people to solve it and the most recent 10.

I solved 4 cards first.

Yay - that was my idea to have clickable cards. You can also click on your failed attempts to see if anyone has solved the card - e.g. no Riemann solves yet.

Your cards are also in order of being solved rather than numerical order.

Should we start spelling it Purplex City?

  • The leaderboard pages are much prettier now
  • You can now find out statistics about cards by clicking on their titles or images
  • If you do not have an account and click on a link that requires you to have an account, we now give you the option of returning to that link once your account has been created
  • We have now eliminated all bugs on this website and replaced them with features

The red/blue/green gender icons are a bit odd...



Without checking, could you guess which one means what?

I noticed that they don't give the name of the country when you move the mouse over the flag, they really don't want to give any hints for vexillogy.

There being three genders is slightly puzzling.

haven't looked but might it be male, female and not stated?
Do you have to put your gender in when you register? I can't remember......

I think it's left blank if it's not stated.
