Reminder about redeeming rewards; Database update

Added 2019-09-30 23:46:11 +0000 UTC

Because some of you haven't redeemed your rewards yet, here's a quick reminder that you can check out this post for details on how to do that for your particular tier.

This link is also provided in a welcome email when you become a patron, but I'm guessing not everyone sees/notices/remembers that :P (also if you've increased your tier at any point you might not remember to go back and check that!)

Also: Sorry for the double post, but after posting this reminder yesterday it was pointed out that the internal Patreon links had started giving a 404, so I decided to delete the post and had to contact them about a bug to get that sorted first... Seems to be working again now.

As a quick progress update, here's where we stand on the new database, with stats being successfully uploaded, the first test of which was here:

But there's still a lot to do with it, like I haven't quite finished the system that allows you to reupload old scores from when you were offline, and then of course once the database is done (I'm still waiting on Will to finalize the basic system), we'll need an actual way to access the scores for new leaderboards.

Also there's a good chance we'll be using cryptographic signing of the data as a robust way to avoid spoofing, and I haven't done that before so it could take some time to ensure that's working properly, too.
