Modified how points are calculated if you are seeing a question for the first time. Also adjusted the text in the Mastery Tracker section to make it more clear how the calculation was made.

Reduced the points for questions to achieve the rank of Familiar and above by 1. This gives quicker progress right out of the gate, and reduces the time to mastery by 3 weeks. Once you've gotten a question correct 6-7 times, with weeks in between the last couple, that should count as mastered, right?
Set up a redirect from the old temp URL to the new permanent URL.
Fixed the question selection so it actually shuffles the questions
Adjusted the size of the main UI elements on iPad sized displays

[BUG] Updated exam editing page to allow for special characters in the question text boxes
[Feature] Added a new Group Question Text section to the Question Groups. This allows you to specify text that is added IMMEDIATELY BEFORE the question is displayed during tests and practices. This way you can make test creation less repetitive if every question in this group should start with similar text.

Updated the alert messages to display within a standard card so your eyes don't have to scan a so far to read the message (yay for reduced eye fatigue!)
[UPDATE] New exams cannot be made Public unless they have at least 50 Questions. This is to reduce the number of public tests that do not have a lot of depth to them.

Reduced the size of the question text on the exam session pages
Updated the Question Groups - Edit Question page, to show the common group question prefix text. This makes it easier to word your test question on that page if you are using the group question prefix text.

You will no longer lose a mastery level once you obtain it! This could have happened if you did poorly on tests later on, or if the Exam Architect added more questions to the exam after you attained a certain mastery level.
