Turn based - Speed - Variable time selection range

[Buccello]

Happens to me quite often that I'm looking for a rather faced paced turn based game, but can't find a matchup. let's say I have 12 turns a day. Then I click the 'variable' time setting and get matched in a game with 1 turn every 2 days. Not exactly what I was looking for.

So it would be nice when looking for a game to select a speed range instead of just one option. Or just a max/min value and everything in between would be fine

What you guys think?

This can already be done with automatic matching in the Play Now game lobby (see my signature for the link). For example, here is how you would set a search primarily for 12 or 24 moves per day, open to 4 or 8 moves per day, but refusing 3 moves per day or slower: https://imgur.com/a/a36VJT4

Once again demonstrating the superiority of the Play Now lobby over the single-game lobby.

Looks very useful, but how do I find the transaction with the coloured bars, you showed in your screenshot?

With matching making set to Automatic on the Play Now page, you use the Opponent's Level filter under Show Advanced Options. The filter options are found by clicking on the gear icon next to the game thumbnail image.

The gear is only visible when match making is set to Automatic. If it's set to Manual, the Opponent's Level filters are found by clicking "Restrict table access" when you create a table.

.. when match making is set to Automatic... when you create a table.

I was afraid of that kind of answer, but still thank you

1) Those phrases were from two different sentences explaining two different scenarios.
2) Why is this a problem?

I use manual matchmaking instead of automatic, and I cannot create that many tables as I am not premium (bc of the restricted payment methods BGA accepts, but this is a completely different subject)

I'm pretty sure you can still configure a table (even for a premium game) without "creating" it, you just have to wait for a premium player who is open to that configuration to come along. I know nik592 has done testing of what configuring tables as a non-premium member looks like, so maybe they can comment if they see this thread (although I don't see them posting much in Suggestions).
