## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.44 — 2026-10-08

Placement points: now derived from who's currently eliminated, ranked by episode then boot order, and shown as "Placement points +N" events in My Tribe, event history, and Super Admin. Reversing a mistaken elimination corrects later placements automatically.
Shared point totals: castaway points on My Tribe and Standings now come from one calculation, so they match league totals, including custom point values and placement.
Quits: logging "Quit the game" now eliminates the castaway like a vote-out. Quitters show a "QUIT" label and get their own section on the draft screens. I also backfilled Rob Antonson in the database.
Open drafts: the per-castaway pick cap is gone. It's hidden when creating a league and no longer enforced in the draft grid.
Castaway dropdown (My Tribe):
A "Drafted by" row of name chips sits at the top, hidden while an open draft is in progress.
Scoring events are one compact line each, with repeats folded, newest first, and the first five shown before "Show more".
Events before a league's scoring start appear greyed out.
Super Admin: the events list now covers every episode, in collapsible groups, instead of only the newest 30.

### 2.43 — 2026-09-25

My Tribe / Other Castaways: new "Other Castaways" section, titles centered + resized (11→13pt), Draft Recap moved back to icon-only top-right, title un-stuck from scrolling, consistent 10px title-to-card spacing
Visual sweep: solid accent color → orange gradient app-wide; new subtle background texture on every screen (found and fixed a real bug where it inflated the whole screen's layout — root cause was an unconstrained Image frame, fixed with GeometryReader)
Live bugs fixed: login typing bug (.textContentType misuse), login screen slide-right glitch (ambient animation scoping), tab bar animation clump, podium styling/border consistency, "No Tribe" draft ordering
Admin: Log Event/Log Group Event screens now grouped into the same categories as the Scoring tab; leaderboard rows darkened/made transparent to read against the new background
New feature: per-league "Scoring Starts At" episode setting, defaulting to episode 1, centralized in GameService.leaderboard and the per-castaway point maps
DB fix: trigger to auto-reopen an open-draft league when a picks-less member joins after auto-close (plus manually fixed "OG Survivors" tonight); removed the misleading "draft opens" tooltip

### 2.42 — 2026-09-23

Bug fixes

League cards showed "Season 1" (the DB row ID) instead of the real season name — fixed in both the My Leagues list and the Play tab (two separate spots needed the fix).
Push notifications weren't working on the live app: found the root cause was two-layered — the backend was always targeting Apple's sandbox server regardless of environment, and separately the APNs key itself turned out to be scoped Sandbox-only in the Apple Developer portal. Fixed both (per-device environment routing + a new Sandbox & Production key) and confirmed working with a real push to your phone and to a league member mid-draft.
Snake draft turn notification copy changed to "It's your pick! Choose your next castaway."

Pre-login welcome guide

Wired up the previously-unused GuestExploreView as the app's first-launch screen — swipeable feature carousel with Create Account / Sign In branching off it; returning visits skip straight to login. Added a back button on Login/Register to return to it.
Replaced its sticky banner with the same island footer image used elsewhere in the app; simplified the CTA to a smaller "Create Account" button + "Already have an account? Sign in" link (white/orange).
Removed a sentence from the welcome blurb; reworded another line to "houses everything you need to run a Survivor fantasy league."
Several rounds of spacing tuning per your feedback (top gap, clearance above the island).

Create Account screen

Fixed a real centering bug — the whole form was sitting shifted left instead of centered as a block.
Removed the top logo icon, added the island footer image at the bottom.
Subtitle changed to "Join Survivor Fantasy."

Splash screen

Redesigned to match the sign-in page's look: logo/torches image filling the bottom, app name and subtitle above it.

Observer role (per-league)

Admins can mark a non-admin member as an observer via a "..." menu on their row in League Members — they can view everything but never draft, get a My Tribe tab, or appear on the leaderboard, and don't count toward the member cap.
Scoped per league — same profile can still play normally in other leagues.
Locked in both directions once the draft starts, to avoid leaving someone stuck in a broken half-state.
Fixed a bug this surfaced: the open-draft auto-close check used to require every league member to finish picking, which would've stalled forever with an observer in the mix.

Scoring

6 new scoring events: Quit the game (−5), Voted out with idol/advantage in pocket (−5/−1), Create a fake idol that gets used (+5), Play a fake idol (−1), Shot in the Dark save (+6) — on by default for all existing leagues.
New "Points Per Placement" toggle (off by default, with an info tooltip): bonus points equal to boot order (1st out = 1pt, 2nd = 2pt, ...), tracked automatically whenever a castaway is marked eliminated.

### 2.4 — 2026-09-21

Draft

Open drafts (not just snake) now block already-eliminated castaways from being picked, and enforce the "times each castaway can be drafted" cap — both previously only worked in snake drafts.
Both draft types now show a separate "VOTED OUT" section instead of lumping eliminated castaways into "No Tribe."
Snake draft pick blocks are now a uniform size regardless of name length.
Snake draft turn banner is now one row (name + pick/round info right-aligned) instead of two lines; your opponent's name renders in the gradient accent style.
Draft Recap reworked into two distinct views: live-draft "Draft Progress" (flat, most-recent-pick-first list of who took whom) vs. post-draft "Draft Recap" on My Tribe (simple Castaway/Avg Pick table).

League creation

Creating a league now auto-prevents setting a member count / picks-per-player combo that's mathematically impossible given the pool of live castaways — it calculates and enforces the minimum "times each castaway can be drafted" needed.

Admin tools

Added three new bulk event-logging flows: Log Tribe Event, Log Group Event, and Log Custom Event (type any label/point value on the fly, logs to any selected castaways — for handling new twists without needing an app update).
The single-castaway "Receive a vote against you" log now supports logging multiple votes at once instead of one at a time.

Standings

Removed the "YOU" badge from the table (the orange tint/name already indicates it).
Podium names and point totals are now always white (rank-colored 1st/2nd/3rd stays).

Scoring

Rebalanced point values (from a simulation run to check draft fairness): Win tribal immunity 3→4, Win tribal reward 2→3, Win individual challenge (renamed from "immunity") 5→6, Individual reward 2→3, Make the merge 5→3, Make the jury 5→4, Make the finale 8→5, Runner-up 10→7, Win the game 20→10.
"Voted Out" removed from all player/admin-facing scoring lists (still fully functional on the backend for event logging — it's just never a meaningful category to display since it's always worth 0).

### 2.3 — 2026-09-18

User-facing changes

-Fixed background music (Spotify, Apple Music, etc.) getting silenced when opening the app — caused by the muted looping videos on the login screen claiming the audio session.
-Castaway photos load noticeably faster — replaced 2.5MB source images with ~550KB compressed versions and added prefetching, so photos are cached before you reach a screen instead of loading in blank.
-Snake draft: past picks in the pick-order timeline now show the actual castaway drafted (photo + name), not just the picker's name.
-Snake draft: castaways are no longer grayed out just because it isn't your turn — only castaways that are actually unavailable (taken, eliminated, already yours) are dimmed now.
-Added a Draft Recap feature:
-Mid-draft: full pick-by-pick history, accessible next to the search bar on the Draft screen.
-Post-draft: a "Draft Recap" summary on the My Tribe tab showing each castaway's average draft position, sorted best to worst — accounts for castaways drafted more than once across different players.
-Pick-order timeline usernames now show 5 characters instead of 4.

Backend

-Removed 24 unused legacy cast-photo assets (~54MB) bundled into the app from a past feature, never referenced in code.
-Added pick_number tracking to the database so draft position/order can be reliably reconstructed (backfilled for the two leagues with existing draft history).
