Hiow do I see the board after the game ends?

Post by Cos- »

This has probably been asked here before, but I'm not finding it with a search.

I'm new here, and only played a few games so far, all with automatically selected opponents. When someone else wins the game, I just get a notification that the game is over - the notification doesn't even tell me who played the last move and won. If I find the link to that specific table ID then I can see who won. But I'd like to see what the board looked like at the end. I would expect that to be pretty automatic - game over, click, and it just shows you the final state of the board. But I have not been able to find that anywhere.

Anyone know?

I'm assuming you are talking about turn-based games, as real-time games you will see the final move.

But, the easiest method is to go to your profile by clicking on your name. Then, scroll to the bottom of the page to see games played. Click on any one of them to be taken to the table. Or, from your notifications screen, just click on the specific table.

The last move/final game situation is available for 24 hours after the table ended, I think. Beyond that, you need to watch the entire replay.

Oh, that's what I meant by "If I find the link to that specific table ID then I can see who won." That's the link that I get in the notification, and also on the "games played" list on my profile. It shows me who won, but it doesn't show what the game looked like at the end. Maybe it's just a feature or misfeature of particular games - some don't show the board when they're over and others do?

Huh. I thought that there was a link to show final game state on those pages for 24 hours after game end... Looks like it disappeared (or I imagined it in the first place). So, unfortunately, it looks like the only way to see it is to watch the replay of the entire game. But, under advanced options in replay, you can go to end of game (fast), which should get you what you want to see fairly quickly.

Sometimes I don't see that button, but it's usually there, along with the replay last turn button.

I don't know if it's specific games that it's missing on or not.
It's definitely available for me in the 3 games that ended up for me in the last 24 hours.

Okay, here's an example - a game that just ended 30 minutes ago:
https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=109483786

If you happen to see it before 24 hours are up, can someone find either the button to see the final state of the game, or a way to see the final state from the "replay" page, and show a screenshot or something? I cannot find it.

Yes, I've noticed this too. Not all games, just some:

OK, apparently it is on a per-game basis. Finity and Cinco have those buttons showing up for me.
Edit -- as does Lords of Xidit
