Changes to the site and games.

Codenames: the turn banner is now pinned to the top of the page. You can always see whose turn it is, whether the captain is giving a clue or the team is guessing, and how much time is left.
Codenames: revealing your own agent gives the team 10 extra seconds.
Codenames: while the captain thinks up a clue the team cannot reveal cards - that time is theirs.
Codenames: the host can shuffle the teams, drag a player into the other team or into the spectators, and set how long the clue and guessing stages run.
Codenames: a round log now sits next to the chat with clues, revealed cards and turn changes.
Codenames: tapping a card nudges it for everyone, even when it is not your turn.
Codenames: once the round is over every card colour is shown to everyone, not just the captains.
Codenames: the board can be walked with the arrow keys and cards now carry screen reader labels.
Codenames: the word list has more than doubled.

Codenames: a new Images mode - surreal pictures instead of words. Hold the left mouse button on a card to take a closer look.
A refreshed look: calmer colours, tidier panels and a subtle background pattern.
