Another week passes in the world of boku - and another update for you lovely people.

As announced, this weekends release contains our forum update; so now the forums on your clan website are even more usable than ever.

The UKEsa finals took place last weekend - the live stream coverage was actually pretty decent - the commentators actually knew what they were talking about - and you could follow what was going on in game. [I watched the WCG reality gamer tv show they had on in the States - and that was awful >_<]

BlackICE made a new theme in his spare time - so check that out in the forums if your interested.

Remember if anything's up with your website, or you have any suggestions on what could make your clan website better, then post in our forums.

Cheers,
Chickenhen

After 6 months hard work, we've finally got to a point where we're happy to release a version of our clan management software.

So check it out here, and if you think it'll be good for your clan, then order yourself up a site.

We've tested it throughly however some minor early tweaks are probably required to make it work best for you guys.

And aside from any bug fixes, we've got a lot of packages we're planning on releasing in the future, so check back often for updates.

Cheers,
Chickenhen
