[Pennant Chase] The new design is really coming... this Friday

[GM Games 252]

I wanted to inform everyone I am going to start launching the new design this Friday. I’m starting with all non-league pages, and will slowly convert league pages as time allows.I know some people will hate the change. Unfortunately that happens anytime you change a beloved product. But the redesign is truly necessary to future-proof the website. I hope that everyone can eventually come to learn and enjoy the new design. In truth, it won’t be a major shift from what exists today. I’m sure I’ll get at least a couple threats that people hate it so much they are leaving PC forever, and to those people, I say god bless. There will be someone to replace you. We have to move forward. As mentioned in a previous blog post, my life got pretty hectic and I had to put a pause on the website redesign. But since then, we’ve run into more issues that highlight the need for a modern design. One example is the mobile app. The latest iOS updates have broken the app and that could mean it’s time for a new app. But we can’t do that until we have a new design. Another issue is that it’s more difficult to release new changes on the current design, and its a waste of time if I’m going to have to rebuild the new feature down the road. So overall this is a good thing, but it will come with some bumps in the road. Many of you tested the new design and gave valuable feedback, so we are in a pretty good place with the new design. But we will continue to tweak as needed. As always, let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
