iPad Owners: The release of iOS 9 has led to a dramatic performance increase in CasinoRPG, now making it very playable on iPads (especially the newer ones).

FEATURE
A new scoring element has been added to crew battles and wars: team challenges! Each battle and each day of war gets 5 random team challenges (there are currently 10 possible and each team has the same challenges in the same order). Each completed challenge gives a +5% bonus to the team's score when completed, and your team can't work towards the next challenge until the previous is completed. The team challenge information and live scoring will be displayed on the scorecard.
FEATURE
Starting new battles has been tweaked to make it easier to get one started. Now, instead of cancelling immediately after getting the required votes when no crews are available, the challenge will go into a pending state until the full 24 hours has expired. If another crew becomes available to battle during that time, the battle will then get setup.
FEATURE
The exponential increase of lot fees is vital to the structure of the game's economy, but it became clear that after a certain point the fees were rising far too rapidly. We've created a new formula that fixes this for both chips and casino points and is applied to both the Real Estate Office and Market.
FEATURE
In order to compensate for the decreased lot fees, there is now a time-limit on lot purchases (whether from Real Estate Office or Market): no limits up to 15, 1 per week up to 30, 1 every other week up to 50 and 1 per month after that. If you sell a lot, the timer is reset and you can buy a new lot immediately.
FEATURE
There are 20 new indoor wall items available for casinos, crews and condos.
UPDATE
War scoring now behaves the same as battle scoring. If one war team has more active players than the other, it will be limited to the top scores up to that number.
UPDATE
The voting requirements for battles now max out at 25 (so crews larger than 50 no longer need the full 50% to challenge).
UPDATE
Moved the main casinorpg.com site to our new hosting provider, so pages like this one should now load more quickly.
UPDATE
The "close floor" button has been moved to the right of the floor name.
FIX
Fixed rare issue that could cause casinos upgrading from 2 to 3-stars to become invisible.
FIX
The medal descriptions in profiles are again visible.
FIX
The ending animation in solitaire now works after winning.
FIX
Hiding/show of quick chat while at slots now works correctly when opening/closing phone.
