Hiding games I dont want to play?

[PainFoinmr]

Hello!
Is there a way to hide lobbies for games I do not want to play? Can I mark somewhere a game I am not interested in?

I don't know if you are using the "play now" lobby or the "games" page.
On "play now" you are shown the games you have favorited first. Just unfavorite games, you no longer want to play.
On "games" you are shown all game by default, but you can select to see your favorite games on the top of the page.

In both cases you need to actually favorite the games you want to see.

This is not quite right. The games get automatically added in the "Favorites games" section on the Play Now page and the "My Favorites" tab on the Games page by simply completing a game. For example, I played "Castle Combo" to qualify to vote in the Casual category for the BGA Awards. It is now favorited on my Play Now lobby and Games page despite me taking no affirmative steps to add it as a favorite. I recently culled a bunch of games from my "favorites," some of which I'd only ever played once.

I see two main sections on the Play Now page. First comes “Favourite Games” then lower down “Other Games You Know”. The latter section used to automatically include every game I play, and showing most recent at the top of the display of tiles, but that automation stopped months ago, forcing me to pile up a bunch of Favourite Games just so they display in the top half of the page. I really wish the “Other Games You Know” started to pick up all games I’ve played (and played recently) as I could then trim back favourites just to genuine favourites.

Hello! Thank you, I got the both extensions mentioned in the thread. I can't seem to grasp how can I hide games. Can you please elaborate?
I would like to hide and not have to sort by favorite games, as there is a lot of games I would like to try, for example, new games. And those won't automatically be favorited.

You can make your own custom list of game you want to try.

The browser extension documentation can be found here :

You should have a button with a trash can icon that allows you to delete a game.
