Cherry, have you thought about having saloon linked to from backpack.tf and/or trade.tf's "community" dropdown lists? Trade.tf seems particularly lenient on who they link since it seems any site related to trading is linked under there so I was surprised saloon.tf wasn't in that list.
Being linked on either of those sites would give saloon a lot of visibilty to those that trade and aren't aware of competitive sites such as this.

Will try to get in touch, we got affiliation deal with Bazaar.tf already, just not executed.
Sending offers should be a lot faster now especially when there is a high load just after the scores are verified, chances are you won't notice it as it was already pretty alright, but it should be consistent no matter how many users are accessing the website.

Just a detail that's bothering me, wouldn't it make more sense if instead of "new" it would say "won" ?

i like that the bets are smaller but i'd prefer it with the two teams being to the left and right rather than above each other
also i think the banner takes up too much space

I agree that the banner might be taking too much space though the main reason for revamp of the matches section is making room for some more info which is not really possible with teams on each side.
Maybe having a different bigger layout on the match page would make up for it?

This may have been asked before, but I'm not searching through 25 pages to find the answer.
Is there any reason ugc gold hl matches aren't on saloon? In my opinion nothing under the top level of a league should be bet on, but if you have esea im matches why not add gold too? I'm sure they'd have plenty of interest.

UGC Gold is far below IM so I don't quite get comparison.
If I get back to adding ETF2L High 6v6 matches and when AF comes back with OWL we'll have plenty of matches not to distract users with lower leagues. Amount of matches we add don't really increase proportionally amount of bets.

I'm not making a direct comparison, it's different game modes so you can't really do that, I'm just saying that if post matches in one lower level league, why not the other? I understand if you are worried about level of competition or something so maybe only post playoffs?

Jon says you can compare them and I trust him :D
Well it is a level of competition that matters, but also games being casted, games being most relevant to their region or gamemode. 6v6 has much bigger following which is why we can add bets for IM or ETF2L High. I'd order our (or at least mine) priority list in this way:
ESEA Invite, ETF2L Premiership 6v6,
ETF2L Premiership HL, UGC Platinum NA HL, OWL, AsiaFortress
ESEA IM
ETF2L High
LBTF2
This list doesn't reflect sympathies though it's all about the numbers as we manage to hit the limit with IM (even if not consistently) and get 2 times the amount of bets than with Platinum so I don't see Gold as something worth investing time in.
EDIT: Though it's definitely a possibility to have bets for playoffs as those usually attract more viewers.

Alright thanks for the long reply. I understand the limitations, gold playoffs would be great.
In regards to the amount of bets that might be placed on gold matches I've noticed after playing in both gold and plat that gold players are usually far more active in the community, which could affect betting. Also I think EVL might start casting gold games every week.

Yeah I mean HL is massive when it comes to the amount of players, but for some reason they don't turn to watch casts that often. This is only my personal opinion, but HL seems to be very hard to cover and follow even though it's quite fun to play because of so many things happening in different parts of the map like having few 'lonely' if not roaming classes like spy or sniper. But then again I'm a noob when it comes to HL (or even any TF2) gameplay so maybe I just don't understand everything.
If EVL commits to casting game every week we'll definitely have bets at least for this one as our main goal is introducing newbies to the competitive and those games you cannot watch even in Invite are definitely not helping.

Okay cool. The low viewership of hl casts is probably because all of ugc plays their matches on the same night, so when there's a cast, only people who don't play actively can watch it.

After a good news comes something sour...
Restoring power to all could take days after strong storms hit Kansas City
Kansas City Power & Light said it could take all weekend or possibly into Monday to restore power to everyone, after strong storms with gusts up to 80 mph and heavy rains swept through the Kansas City metro area early Friday.
In fact, Troy Schulte, city manager in Kansas City, said this appears to be the worst tree and power line damage since the 2002 ice storm, with 40,000 public trees damaged in some way in the city.
A lot of the damage occurred in the urban core, said Courtney Hughley, a spokeswoman for KCP&L.
“At the height of the storm, we had about 110,000 customers without power,” she said. “That’s one of our largest storms in the past decade.”
For the past 14 hours we've been running on a generator, but the time to go offline has come eventually.

Hello there :D
Updated some stuff on the website.
Let me know what you think, what I already plan on changing/adding is having a chart where the header would be on the bets page so it doesn't feel so empty and has some light touch like the home has.
