    Following on from this announcement, I'd like to open this thread up for people to comment on and report any bugs with our new Match Making service.

    We understand there may be a few hic-ups which we'll do our best to tackle today.

    We really hope everyone enjoys this new service, we're quite excited about it here in the office.

    Thanks for your time folks,

    Dav

    Interesting that Tar.Aldarion would be my true love based on this system. I look nothing like Avril. But he's a sexy guy so I'm not complaining.

    All the posters it spat out for me are men who play poker. :(

    If you could manipulate it so that it spat out members of the opposite sex (or the same depending on what floats your boat!) that would be just super I guess.

    Then again, I don't think anyone would actually take this too seriously. :)

    We are working on the gender detection code. It's pretty tricky though, there are a lot of strange edge cases to deal with.

    You could, but its the love that dare not speak its name. I'm flattered, but no, though I have a friend....

    I clicked a thread from the homepage and saw the new icon, I clicked it, saw where it lead me and started shaking my head. I thought Nooooooooooooooooo........... how could Boards go down this route. It's wrong, so so wrong. I was going to voice my concern........








    .......... then I realized.

    Fine, here you go. It really was Beru all along. I just panicked because I thought she was out of my league. https://us.v-cdn.net/6034073/uploads/attachments/16986/109416.png
