Some of my played games are not showing up in "Play Now" section/lobby?

Post by hughesjass »

I'm referring to https://boardgamearena.com/lobby . They do show up properly in the "Games" section, which recently had an overhaul, apparently. Is the lobby section getting deprecated?

What do you mean by not showing up?

Some of the games (that I have previously played) are missing from my lobby screen, in the "Other games you know" section. So that section is incomplete for me. Maybe that section only has the most popular games by default (even when I sort by "Last played") ?

There's a limit in how many games are showing up in that area, to limit performance impact on the servers. Should you want more games to show up on that page, use the add to favorites button on the game page (or the heart icon next to the game icon on the play now page, IIRC).

Yes, and at the end of the list of games you know there is a text in tiny letters which allows you to "show more". So nothing got lost!

Language is a source of misunderstanding. (Antoine de Saint-Exupery: The Little Prince) But it is also the source of understanding - it all depends on how you use it. :-)

The list of "other games you know" shows only 24 of them (with my settings, at least), and they're apparently the most popular regardless of your display choice. The section has become rather useless once you have played a few dozen games.

PS. I've decided to simply hide it with the following custom CSS:

Code: Select all

div#known_section {
display:none!important;
}
