As eyebo says, the Mania Planet 2.0 interface really looks like it will encourage SM players to play Canyon, and also TM players to play Storm, so there is a big opportunity for both communites (if they are separate) to grow from each other.

Much of the code base for MX for ShootMania is already taken from this site, so it's not a huge thing to make I guess. It will just require a bit of reworking for some of the details I guess.

Well this is mainly true, but it's becomming a bit more work that Forzzy was maybe anticipating, so its even nicer that the recent update here on the TM site was done.

Oh okay. Thanks for the info MrA. Well his hard work is surely appreciated, even if he doesn't get to hear it enough.

I've added an announcement and short tutorial on the front page news so people are aware of how to use this new feature.
