FYI, it's come to my attention that there may be issues with the update. Admittedly, I rushed things a bit in order to get it out before I had to leave (it would have been nice if the servers hadn't been down extra long). Skittles appear to be working, but map loads seem to be intermittent (but can be loaded manually), and a few other oddities. I'll try to get it all sorted out later tonight after I get back.
