One headache overcome

Hello,

Since my last post we have had a real nightmare trying to rectify an issue on the
RMV2 backdating facility. We believe we have now rectified the issue and will of course monitor it over the coming days, we are now working on additional features for RMV2 and also several other ongoing developments.

So although this has held us up, its such an important feature that eventually will be a major selling point for the site (ability to actually test performance of any set of ratings in the past) its certainly been a worthwhile delay.

Hopefully i will post again soon with some good news on progress.

For now, thanks for your support and keep your feedback and comments coming.

My thanks to those members who took notice of the mention in my last post regarding increasing member numbers. This has led to a few new avenues of potential being opened, which we are hopeful something will come of.

Obviously for any business to be successful it must earn money to pay the bills, our focus ever since we developed has been solely on developing the site, working with members to improve consistently. Our hope of course is the good word of mouth and knowledge of the site will grow, which it has, however we (specifically I) must realise extra effort must be made to get the word out there and to do a better job of highlighting the uniqueness of the site and the power of the facilities.

This is of course never an easy thing to achieve, particularly when working on a very small budget, but there is no point making excuses as it can be done.

Anyway as always, my thanks to all members and its onwards and upwards.

Talk Soon,

Chris

Getting There

We have made some really good progress and will hopefully be making some massive headway during October.

Firstly there is a loyalty bonus programme for this month - thanks to all of you for all your support, lets hope something good comes of the loyalty programme!

Next, we have finally finished the Stalls Analyser for draw bias etc. We have had some nice feedback already, so thanks for that. We are very pleased with it so far.

This is actually what was holding up the Ratings Machine V2 project the most. We will therefore now be able to move along with the development here and at this stage our hope is the launch of the working machine is not too far away. When it launches we will introduce it to all the main places on the site but the old Ratings Machine will be available for a while to help members who wish to use ratings their to help set up in the RMV2.

In my next blog i will write a lot more about that but for now some things do keep changing behind the scenes so no point misleading people in terms of definite dates etc.

As mentioned earlier, October should be a big month so its onwards and upwards. Keep the feedback coming, there are many many of your plans in the pipeline.

Finally if you are able to mention the site to friends or anyone you believe would benefit, please do so. Despite the loyalty of our members we still have very small numbers and a real problem with getting the sites name out there as we are almost solely reliant on word of mouth. The site MUST grow in the next few months and we really do need all members support, so again thanks.

Chris
