Pierce has blessed us with an all new EDM space banger to acc…
Hey everyone! Zag here. This latest hotfix carries with it some weighty changes, so let's have a little chat about those changes, and The Tribunal as a whole. Over the last few days we've been gathering a lot of feedback!

We also fixed and changed a whole bunch of other stuff, bec…

Hey guys! Zag here. Dave's not here this time, it's me, Zag, instead. We didn't post any announcements for the last two updates because...
