Propose rematch is pointless

[Tisaac]

After finishing a game, you are offered some buttons, one of which is 'propose rematch'.

This does not work at all except amongst friends, as it simply creates a table restricted to the players you last played against. Unless it's a two-player game, they will not accept. So why offer an option that doesn't work?

Dear BGA,

If you want to imrpove the system, please start with some small incremental improvements, so that you can garner an understanding of the system you have created. Please do not make wholesale changes right now. As I'm sure you understand, in all aspects of gaming, "it's all about the timing". Your timing here is way off mark. Coming out of lockdown is not the right time to make the changes you are making. Better to fix the longstanding bugs. However, I welcome the introduction of new games.

I am sorry but i dont understand at all, isnt the purpose of a rematch exactly to create a table with the players you just played ?? And i am not sure why you seems to indicate this is a new feature when this always existed.

Also, OP is saying it only really works with friends or two players

Agreed but its very handy for exactly those situations so what's wrong with it? Just don't use it otherwise

I especially like that it switches who goes first

I also don't understand at all. There is also a "Play again" button right next to the "Propose rematch" button you must have noticed. The "Play again" is for a general new game of the same kind with anyone. The "Propose rematch" is for a revanche-type rematch with the same players. Makes total sense to have both options.

And why are you so vague about "they will not accept"????? You could be actually helpful and specify why that happened. Had the invitation not been displayed or what was the problem?

Precisely my reaction. If the OP doesn't like the button....no one is forcing them to press it.
