Game in Progress page update

[lordsilk]

I'm not seeing the hourglass or any indicator of whose turn it is on the new page.

<snip

Edit to add: Oh, found the indicator for whose turn it is. Still, the hourglass was easier to spot at a glance.

+1 for bringing back the hourglass

Yeah. Hourglass was really good to spot at a glance who's move it is, and how many players need to play move in simultaneous games (eg. I would prioritize tables waiting only for me).

I don't like the changes! I feel very uncomfortable now on the site "gameinprogress" and can't see any benefits compared to as it was before.

"Arena" and "Tournament" so large and intrusive? Why? I don't need both of it. And why one can't change the size or visibility?

Please give us back the familiar design.

Please revert the changes to the side panel games in progress, there is not enough space to fit all the information that is trying to be squeezed in there. I cannot even see the names of all the opponents on a 4 player table, just the first letter and their avatar..

Hello,

the bottom of the page blinks : https://imgur.com/a/brB5Sqh

On desktop: Plain ugly
On mobile: Utterly useless (far to few visible active games)

And is there a way to hide the bottom rows with the tournaments?

I switched to 1 column display AND medium display.
Kind of like it like that... I like the fact the table are separated between normal game, arena and tournaments.
I am on PC.

Not sure what the order by relevance means.

Now only one thing missing is the level of opponents !! Please put it back (in medium or large display if needed)

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

The old games in progress page worked fine, there was no need to change it. The 'create a game' page worked fine, there was no need to change it.

This site is become uglier and less intuitive with every single update you release, and it needs to stop. Please and thank you.

I don't feel inclined to continue paying (more every year) for a service that is degrading over time.

I am NOT a fan. It does not look good at all on a normal-sized widescreen monitor, stretching the games out over the entire screen.

Also, it feels like I'm browsing the Internet without an adblocker, but these aren't ads, just other stuff I don't want to see. I realise it gets better when changing some of the settings, but the default settings are just horrible.

Just give me a list of the games I'm playing, no need to group them on Arena/Tournament/Play. I'm still going to play them regardless.

There seems to be an unfortunate trend in BGA UI design which is:

“Users will use our site more if we have more images and links on as many screens as possible”

I believe that is incorrect.

The users on your site already want to be here, and probably play as many games as they have time for. It is simply frustrating when clicking links and having screens with more distractions than relevant info.

All we need to be relaxed and engaged is to have simple clean screens with just the info requested, and ONE simple button at the top to “Play New Game”.

I despise the new games in progress page. Please change it back, Back when Sour Dessert was running the show there was always an attitude about changes that "we're right and you're wrong". Please don't tell me that attitude is still prevailing.
