Happy Chinese New Year! 新年快樂!

On our forums, you’ll see that we have changed the default avatar for all users to a tiger as this is the year of tiger 虎.

P.S. If you wish to keep your original avatar, simply update your profile again. This was meant to be a temporary change, but somehow ended up being permanent.

Happy Chinese/Lunar New Year! This year is the year of Tiger. On IRC today and part of tomorrow, you’ll find a special edition of the Math Quiz available to celebrate this holiday.
