* Tags: There is now a page which displays all of the tags, the Top 50 Tags page now has more statistics on, if you are logged in and go to someone else's profile page you can see which tags you have in common; and the individual tags pages are now ordered by username rather than tagging order
* Profile: You can now pick one of our default avatars if you do not want to use your own, you can also add tags from the Edit Profile page
* Tracked Players: You can now see how many players you are tracking; also, if you visit someone else's profile page when you are logged in you can see which players you have in common
* Cards: The solved cards grid now displays the card's wave as well as its name and number when you hover over it; and you can now rate a card after you solve it
* Virtual Cards: If you have already solved both of the virtual cards, then the banner will not display on your My PXC page

Rating cards - excellent idea, but it's a little disconcerting to see they're just starting to playtest in the middle of the game. And let's hope they make this retroactive in the future. I wonder if this means they're still working on some of the Wave 3 cards?

 		Figure
UK vs US leaderboards - how typical, like the rest of us don't count Crying or Very sad I know, players in the rest of the world are 2nd class players, used only by MC to increase cards sales while leaving us out of the good stuff. No bonus points for us! Only this week did we finally get wave two cards in the only Canadian retail outlet *wah*

Then again, I'm kicking ass so who cares? I've only been playing for a month and would be 16th in the US already if I lived 30 mile south. Maybe I'll start my own leaderboard for "foreigners" - see how ya like them apples . . . Very Happy

 		judging by the fact theres less that 700 people on the US leaderboard, other countries would have very small leaderboards.

EDIT: an everybody else one would work

 		Replace the country code on the url with the appropriate one for your own country and it does show the leaderboard. Examples provided by Mind Candy below:-

France

Canada

Australia

Nice little feature. However, if it descends into "Woo! Lookit me! See how far up the leaderboard I am! You all suckZorZiz!!!!111!!!seventeen!!!!turnip!!!???harpsichord?!!!!" then I will be dishing out serious clippage around the earhole. Seriously, nobody is going to care about the leaderboard positions of anyone else.

 		Well, I never!
I'm pretty sure Canada's the snowy bit just above the US (oh, sorry, "America"). If you saw the closing cermonies of the recent Olympics you know all about Canada - Indians, igloos, Inukshuk, ice fishing, hockey and, unaccountably, people who can fly. Look us up Smile Maybe they should do a Silver Card about us, maybe an estimate of when Canada might finally achieve 100 miles of paved road, or the results of last year's polar bear hunt in Toronto.

Juxta - thanks for the head's up on the country code thing. I'll make sure to email you my rankings weekly - you Brits are so cute when you're mad Wink WOOT!

Now that I think of it, that's probably taboo or something on the board . . . Bad EvilGenius *slap on wrist*
