Sharing the link of a table from its Game page

Post by katmk »

Oh, power users of BGA, can you tell me whether it's possible to set up a table using the game page and then get the URL for the table in order to share it?

I mostly set up my games via the Play now interface but occasionally, I find myself on an individual game page and it's mildly irritating to realise after I've created my table, that I still have to go back to Play now and find my table (which isn't always there) in order to share the link.

On a (possibly) separate note, I sometimes see BGA short URLs about in the wild. They're maybe bga.it but I can't actually remember off the top of my head and can't find an example now. Does anyone know how they're created?

If I understand you correctly, it's possible.

On the page for a particular game, click start so you're searching for a game. Then refresh the page and click on that table you just made. You can copy the URL and people can join from it.

Not sure about the short URLs though

Ah. thanks for the help!

It sort of worked for me - but only if I created a second table, then clicked back to my original one. Ah, the oddities.
