It is a shame to cover the misfire markers.

This latest change ''fast hints'' is a big step in the right direction. Thank you for this!!

There are a couple of misconceptions:
1. That the previous version was ugly.
2. That the previous version was less user friendly.
Both of these are false. I don't even remember seeing complaints at all.
I wish that we kept the old system and just changed the graphics of the cards.

I would like to point out that every game on this site looks different sitting around a real table. Imagine puerto rico with an around-the-table look, it's just not practical to fit on a monitor. I believe making things fit around the table is what led to some of the decisions (and problems) in this design. Like the small discard box.

Suggestions:
1. The cards in the discard definitely looked better before, and would again.
2. It would be nice to be able to toggle the misfire graphics off.

I appreciate the latest changes. I felt that when I said all these same things in alpha, I was completely ignored.

Why did you make the game log changes?
A
to
B
this card is red

Now I can not use the browsers' ctrl-f functions to find when some other player gave me some specific clue. At least please place the players who gave clues on the same line so ctrl-f would actually work. It greatly speeds up the game if I don't have to read every line and use the replay feature.

It's very nice that you created the ability to choose between displaying discarded cards by ascending or chronological order. But why did you not do it like all other features? Now I have to click on the button EVERY GAME instead of choosing the default for all games.

I agree with Stroom. It's annoying that I have to correct the discard box every game, esecially when it has to be less than 1% of players that would rather not know the order they were discarded.

I hope they would change what the default settings are too. I have had so many games ruined because people do not find the new UI intuitive.

Stacked.
Fast Clues.
Discard in play order.
Bombs more visible.

Has anyone noticed that with 6 cards, the leftmost card does not act like the others?

Sometimes I start drag-dropping a card before the other player makes his move, knowing what I want to do with the card. With the leftmost, it will not let me drag-drop but with all others it does. This is quite annoying.

Similarly, I'd like to have fast clues to allow me to drag-drop the clues. Would make the game act like a speed-chess version.

Ok, a new suggestion. It would be useful to be able to mark my own cards with a ''?''. Even if I am the only one who can see it. Perhaps being able to mark numbers or colors on my own cards would make the interface too complex. But just a ''?'' so that I can remember that I know something about that card even though it hasn't been clued by another player.

I am sure the ability to put ''?'' on your cards would be very popular.

You probably just need negative clues on cards... There was a chrome plugin for that with the old UI. It would hold more information than just a ? icon.
