Release notes - Version 5 Match Stats, Break & Resume, Improvements
Last Updated 4 years ago

Dear Friends,

Since inception of this gaming site, It has been a great journey with you all for continuous improvement of this site. We sincerely thank you all for your suggestions for improvements and also for the patience to understand and accept the changes made so far. We believe that it's important to make the users aware about the changes made and also to explain the purpose behind it so that the users become familiar with the changes and understand the value of it.

After introducing Game 28/40 recently, there is a surge in new users in the site. We have received some valuable and sensible feedbacks from many new users who are either playing the cards online first time or have played card games in other online sites , but have good understanding of F2F games. Our motive for building this site was to promote Mallu card games and encourage all category of users including experienced players and players who are still getting thru the learning curve. We value the feedbacks from all categories and try to implement the suggestion if those add value, are within the rules of the game and practical to implement without conflicts. Major suggestions received were to bring in more clarity on who is the bidder, whose turn to play/bid, make contract & bid table display more easy to read/interpret to avoid any confusion etc. You might have already noticed that most of the changes recently implemented are mainly to address such feedbacks which make sense. When we implemented such changes, it changed the way our regular users see the bid/contract/bid table. We strongly believe, it a matter of short time for the regular players to get used to the new display changes and to see value in these changes. If any of you find it a bit inconvenient initially, we sincerely apologies for that, but we can assure you that it's just an initial hiccup and soon you will be find it better and more comfortable once you get an understanding of the changes. .

With these changes, we are reverting some the features to the original mode (Like keeping the contract on top, adding some options in the preference so that people can go back to previous versions etc.) while keeping the fresh & valuable ideas from new users.

We believe that with these latest changes, we have addressed almost all feedbacks/suggestions received so far and we don't intend to make any more design changes unless it calls for a bug fix or a major release.

We appreciate all your feedback/suggestions for this release and request you to report any problem using our support portal https://www.cheettukaliclub.com/support/open.php. We encourage you to attach the screenshot of the error/issue along with sequence of actions happened (for ex: After play mode when switched to bid or at the end of match)

Enhancements

  • Game - Some users highlighted issue about the hands being changed while the game in progress. This is because system is doing a sort of the cards after each trick to arrange the cards with contrast black/red suit colors. ie, If user has clubs, spade and diamond, system will arrange the cards in clubs, diamond and spade so that users can distinguish the cards easily. Now this arrangement will not be done automatically and for those who wants this feature, they have to turn this ON in Game Menu > Preference > Display hand cards in contrast.
