The big news this week, as you can imagine, is the release of the new API service. It was years in the making--we launched the first version of the API way back in 2016, and it was a hit with students and researchers, gamers and collectors, and more. It's been gratifying to see that people continue to find it useful!

I also should have noted this last week, but we have recently added our 70,000th Windows game: Jungo! It was added by qwertyuiop, who has been with us for more than 24 years, and contributed nearly 700 games. Great work, qwertyuiop, and thanks to everyone else that helped get us here!

We do have a few other updates to note, this week:

• You can now select February 29 for This Day in Gaming, even if it's not currently a leap year.
• Approvers: Editing Game Relations for games with lots of relations should be (much) faster.
• Bugfix: Closing accounts works again.
