Did they kill "Next table" functionality? Doesn't go to next game now

Post by technomage116 »

here's a UI "upgrades" that broke useful functionality....again.

Yesterday I could hit my "next table" and it would take me to the next table.

If I have 10 games, that's ten clicks.

This morning, my next table button takes me to the list of tables and I have to click and a load page.

That's click, load page, decision, click, load page for what used to just be a click.

You've tripled my cognitive load and takes twice as long to get to the next table - All because somebody removed a simple, useful functionality.

That is not an improvement imho. How do I get the old functionality back?

I really hope there is a way to make the old way work.

It's still there for me. But it can behave like you say when there are server issues, you probably run into one of them.

I have the same issue.
The button next table works 2 or 3 times and then I come back to the game list even I still have game to play so I have to click on each game, clicking on the yellow icon up right with the number doesn´t work either.

I have found that the functionality breaks for a day or so about once a year

Today seems to be 2023s day

I've been a member for just over a year, and I think this is at least the third time it has happened. It doesn't seem to happen for all tables (for me at least) - when I had 3 tables left to play, I got dumped back at the list, but before that it was working fine. Then dumped me back again with 2 tables left to play, but for the last one it worked normally again.

In any case, I don't believe they have removed the functionality, but there may be a bug in it, which will likely be fixed before too long.

I think this happens for me when there is a lot of time left for a doing my move at a table, like 5 days or more.

That is exactly how it's happening to me as well, has been for a few days now.
