Any idea when this will happen? :)
I still see it in my turn-based games.

Thanks

Please do not dumb down the site for the people that won't pay attention. The Pygmalion/golem effect is real -- lower expectations of player engagement often lead to lower engagement. (Besides, haven't you used the "we want players to be aware" argument to not automate games where players only have one choice, such as in the lottery in Stone Age, making everyone wait longer? :) )
Amen! And I could not stress this enough. I feel like the entire world is already dumbed down because people can't do anything for themselves, cause everything out there does it for them or automatically. When you expect N, you get N - 1. When you start expecting N - 1, you get N - 3.

That said... since I was merely taking advantage of the opportunity to make a point :lol: , what the heck are you guys talking about? I've never seen anything jiggle. I feel I should have noticed such a thing, because things moving on a page tend to drive me crazy.

I didn't notice it until after this thread either. When it is your turn (or when loading a turn-based game, currently.... ;) ) the time remaining in the banner at the top will shift left and right about a character's width. Sorry to point this out, but now you will not be able to not see it.

Same here, kinda. I noticed something moving, but didn't actually know what was moving for the first couple times.

Although it seems to have been removed for loading a turn-based game now.
