Nice I like this. I just wanna know, is there any chance double elimination tournaments can happen?

As a player I think it’d be really helpful instead of filtering by “games I know” if it could show “tournaments I’m eligible for.” I don’t know offhand which games I have 100 ELO for and having that function would streamline the process of picking a tournament.

This is pretty tough to navigate, the old format had a nice simple layout. Ouch!

Does the update include being able to set timers to not fixed? If not I don't know why you're bothering.

I like that i need to do less scrolling on my mobile and the font size is a bit bigger.

But everything everyone else is saying,is spot on. This is not an upgrade. huge superfuous images at the top of a screen is not mobile friendly, i need to see more detail about the tournament in progress - wins, losses, ties, matches played, points won alone give me no details. Make the summary of results appear near the top of the screen of an active tournament and tournament settings down the bottom or minimised.

And the one I haven't seen anyone else say, there is still no simple way to find the link to private touraments you are currently playing. I'd expect this to appear on the homepage t the top of touraments, and maybe at the end of my listing of games played from the rhs menu.

The old version was so much better. PLEASE just put it back and stop changing things. Or at least.. please update every page you changed from the "old" versions to make sure they have every single piece of functionality that the old version had. There are many missing pieces in the new versions that are the main reason I have trouble learning to love them. It's ok to deal with visual changes sometimes, but when you take away functionality that was present before, especially for a service people pay for, that's not good.

Het ziet er prachtig uit, maar werkt erg omslachtig. Waarom moet je eerst op ‘open toernooipagina’ klikken en dan helemaal naar beneden scrollen om je in te schrijven? Waarom niet gewoon in de toernooilijst?

If you can see a basic detail of tournament I think that the button for register would be nice on basic detail.
Without look on detail of tournament.

I've been actively playing BGA for two years now, even getting a year's premium.
But this update is terrible. I understand it's probably more convenient on mobile and tablets, but on PC, it's terrible.
Previously, I could click on tournaments, filter by favorite games, set criteria, see tournaments I wasn't registered for, skip them by opening them in new tabs, and then decide whether I wanted to participate or not by going to each tab. Now, everything has become much more complicated. It's clear the site has become geared toward mobile phones and tablets. Apparently, PC players are no longer a priority, and no one has thought to adapt anything for them.
Very sad.

Играю на БГА уже 2 года активно, даже брал годовой премиум.
Но это обновление ужасно. Я понимаю что на мобилах и планшете стало наверное удобнее, но вот на ПК - ужас.
Раньше я мог нажать на турниры, поставить фильтр по избранным играм, выставить критерии, увидеть турниры где я не записан, прокливать их открыв в новых вкладках, и затем переходя в каждую вкладку решить хочу я участовать или нет, сейчас же всё стало намного сложнее. Видно что сайт стал ориентирован на мобильные телефоны и планшеты. Видимо игроки заходящие с ПК уже не являются приоритетными и никто не думал что-то адаптировать для них.
Очень печально.
