Technical

Technologies and standards used

XHTML 1.0
- Error-free; checking with HTML Validator and W3C's Markup Validation Service
- Semantic (POSH)
- Gracefully degrading
CSS; mostly one external style sheet
PHP for dynamic content and to simplify site-wide changes
JS for site enhancements (no core functionality)
Flash properly implemented (see Flash Satay)
Microformats (hCard, hCalendar, Geo, rel="tag", and XFN)
Web feed, usually RSS
Xfire URLs, "xfire:" URI scheme for Xfire integration (and regular links to player and server profile pages).
OpenSearch, currently referring to Google Co-op
Google Co-op search engine
PNG for most graphics ,GIF for animated graphics
Favicon, in image/vnd.microsoft.icon format (file)
Dates and times short notation is based on the international date format, or ISO 8601:2004; yyyy-mm-dd, hh:mm.
No "www" subdomain. See www. is deprecated. for the reasoning behind that.

Hacks and workarounds used

@import IE bug used to circumvent IE's "position: fixed" bug.
CSS3's "::selection" isn't official (yet?), and Firefox only supports the "::-moz-selection" (currently unlisted).
Some Microformats misuse the abbr element element.
