The new message box supports the latest IAB TCF (Interactive Advertising Bureau, Transparency & Consent Framework) specification, and enables you to manage your privacy consent choices.

Change the 'Prizes round to nearest' setting to (for example) 0.50, 0.25, or 0.01, etc.
Percentages used for calculating prizes can now be specified to a tenth of one percent, enabling finer control over smaller payout amounts:
Change the 'Prizes % increments' setting to 0.1%, 0.2%, or 0.5%, and adjust the prize percentages accordingly.
Added Shallow, Medium, and Steep prize percentages presets for prize counts > 10.
These new presets have percentages given to one decimal place for smoother distributions of prizes.
