Notable Info
- This is strictly a maintenance update to get some small shows and fixes in before the holidays. Our next release will come in the first days of 2012. This inaugural 2012 release will also include community adjustments made in reaction to 2011 observations. Once again, the Japanese community proved itself to be overrated, as did the Brazilian community, albeit at a much lesser level.
