The tab on the game page with a link to the tournament page is back.

Thanks for that enlightenment. However, that is utterly terrible UI design. I've played thousands of games and have never clicked on that BGA logo before. I'd assumed it was just a logo or went to the home page. There is utterly nothing about it that suggests to the user that it leads to a link for the tournament the game is in. I suspect that 99% of users would, like me, click on a tab marked "tournament" rather than a BGA logo when looking for tournament info. It could take someone literally years to find that, unless they happen to read the forums, which most of us don't.

I'm still not seeing the tournament tab on any of my game pages. (These are all games that were in existence yesterday; I have not had any new tournament tables commence today.)

In addition to the tournament tab being gone, I don't appear to be able to access my tournaments from my main page either (which even when the tab is hopefully added back/fixed, would be useful for when I'm in between rounds of a tournament).

Currently, the only way I can access a tournament table/rules page (of a tournament I'm currently in) is going to a recently completed game of said tournament and clicking on a link from there,

I saw return to the same game I checked yesterday where it was gone. And it's there for a different game right now.

Have you checked again today?

That is bizarre. I just checked to make sure I'm able to see it in a tournament I'm not registered for, and I see it for this one https://boardgamearena.com/15/takenoko?table=794312134 but not for your TTR: Europe https://boardgamearena.com/9/tickettori ... =780288248

Thanks for reporting the issue, the button should now be visible again for all tournament tables.
