What's new and what's been fixed around the tavern, newest first.
The app now fits your iPhone
If you've added the site to your iPhone's home screen, the top-bar buttons — menu, notifications, your account — no longer hide under the notch, and the bottom tabs stay clear of the swipe bar. Typing in the chat on iPhone is smoother too: the message box no longer glitches and jumps around when the keyboard pops up.
Fewer page reloads everywhere
Most buttons and small forms around the site now do their work in place — a little confirmation pops up in the corner instead of the whole page reloading, which feels much snappier, especially on phones. Dismissing notifications, updating your profile and preferences, recording game night attendance, library requests, and the admin tools all respond instantly now. And if you mistype something in a form, the problem is pointed out right under the box you typed in.
Your profile picture is now your ticket
Tap your profile picture and it opens up large — with a "View code" button that flips it around to reveal your personal QR code. At special events, show that code at the door: an organiser scans it and you're checked in. Nothing to print, nothing to buy — it's simply how we count who came along on the night (and it helps with the raffle draws).
Raffle tickets for special events
Special events can now run raffles right on the site. Open the night's page to see the prizes, confirm you're over 18, and buy tickets online — they're paid through our club shop and appear on the night's page within a minute. Paper ticket books sold at the club join the very same draw, so it doesn't matter which kind you hold. Prizes can be added right up to the draw, so late donations still make the pool. Winners get a notification (and an email), and the results are posted on the night's page for everyone. Raffles follow the legal limits for club lotteries, so ticket prices stay at €5 or less.
Special events join game nights
Special events now live right alongside game nights: they're on the calendar, they show under "up next" on the home page, and you RSVP to them exactly like any other night. There's no separate events section any more, and no ticket prices — special events are free to attend. Look for the amber Special event badge to spot them.
Put the club in your pocket
You can now install the website on your phone as a real app — full screen, its own icon on your home screen, quick to open. On iPhone: open the site in Safari, tap Share, then "Add to Home Screen". On Android: Chrome offers "Install app" from its menu. If you lose signal it now shows a friendly page instead of a browser error.
Getting in touch, and donating to the library
Two new ways to reach us.
Contact Us - there's now a proper way to send the club a message, in the sidebar, in the footer, and under "More" on your phone. It goes straight to the organisers, who'll get a notification and come back to you. You don't need an account to use it, so you can point anyone at it who's thinking of joining.
Donate an Item - got a rulebook, a set of dice or a battle mat the club could use? There's a button on the library page. Tell us what it is and how to reach you, and a librarian will sort out the handover.
Suggesting an item for the library now alerts the librarians too, so your suggestion won't sit unseen.
A tidier board, a shorter profile, and clickable names
A few things you asked for:
Old notices can be archived. Instead of deleting a notice that's done its job, you can now archive it — it comes off the main board into an "Archived" section at the bottom, keeps its comments, and its link still works.
Your profile is shorter. Session reminders, play preferences and notification settings now fold away, and stay folded until you open them. Your tables, sessions, game nights and tales are all still there in full.
Names are clickable. When someone asks to join your table or turns up as a guest, you can click their name to see their profile — the same as you already could elsewhere. We swept the site and filled in the places that were missing it.
Fixed on phones: page titles were being squeezed by the buttons beside them, so buttons now sit on their own row.
Something stirs in the mausoleum…
The crypt is no longer just a place to pay your respects. Wanderers who sign in may find its residents less settled than they were — and those who linger speak of a low rumbling from somewhere beneath the stones. What it means is yours to discover. Tread carefully among the graves, and good luck.
A fresh coat of polish across the tavern
The whole site now follows one consistent look: matching buttons, badges, page headers, and empty screens everywhere, story text that's easier to read in parchment mode, warning messages that actually stand out, and story badges that show the same colour on every page. Writing got better too — comments, tales, and notes share a cleaner, faster editor with Write/Preview tabs, and @-mentioning people or #-mentioning tables now works in every writing box. The club name in the corner is also in clearer lettering — no more squinting at the old Irish-style font. If something looks off on a page you use, shout at us on WhatsApp.
Everything else
The full guildhall — tucked away so your tabs stay clear.
