I’ve been trying to avoid people using just the forum. You aren’t the first person to ask for this though so I’ll look at putting another one back in. Some people kept bypassing the main page which was a pain as they were missing out on the most important bits of news, hence removed the forum index.
I did this in a mockup I showed a bunch of people a while back and no one commented on it so I assumed it wouldn’t be a problem – ironically the people I showed the mock up to are the ones that have requested having it back!
I’ve updated the first post in the this topic as there have been some changes to the video embedding setup.
You no longer need to add [youtube] tags to embed YouTube videos, plus there is now support for 47 different video clip sites, not just YouTube.
Unfortunately, in the process of upgrading the system, the old embeds now no longer work. They will be fixed eventually, but in the mean time you can still visit the links which are posted.
Testing … We now have quick reply boxes at the end of topics so you don’t need to click “reply” anymore. Jason Sedgwick requested this about a year ago, but I never figured out how to do it until a week or so ago.
If you can see this post, then the quick reply box is working … test over.
Actually … it didn’t work on any of the main pages of the site expect the home page and the forum.
But it’s fixed now.
And the prize for moron of the year goes to … me!
I just spent the past 30 mins trying to figure out why the new forum wasn’t working

Sorry for any inconvenience

[/quote:2bzm8q2o]Weird, I thought it was 50x25m or something like that. It even felt small when I was on it. But I guess being surrounded by trees/hills makes it feel smaller than it really is. AFAIK IIHF regulations require glass around the entire perimeter too, so it would probably fail on that count too.
AFAIK rinks don’t need to meet IIHF regulations for some minor competitions – I think I read that somewhere or other, and I’m not sure what ‘minor’ is defined as. Alexandra is slightly bigger than IIHF, but it doesn’t have a full glass enclosure of course so that would count it out. Other than that, there are no other rinks of the correct size, let alone meeting the other random specifications like board heights, glass etc in New Zealand.
Interesting tidbit of info: In the Calgary Roller Hockey League (that I used to play in) the rules required three mens changing rooms, three womens changing rooms and separate womens and mens changing rooms. So that would count out every rink in New Zealand!
Thanks for the clarification Kyle. Looks like the IIHF has a shiny new website too, which is a good thing as their old one was pretty crappy.
I feel violated. Those tights are just plain wrong.
Awesome show though. Kudos to all those involved.

Welcome to the forum Dan. Is this Dan Dilkes? Or another Dan?
