Should be able to search for arena game at the same time as a regular game

Post by gordoz »

There's plenty of games I'd like to find the first available game whether it is for Arena or regular. Not allowing this just cuts the player pool in half for that game. Doesn't matter much for popular games like Carcassonne but for smaller ones it really kills it.

Before you start to search a game, you can open a new tab and set it to simple mode, the first tab stays in arena mode, and then you can search games in both tabs.
I also hope one day we don't have to do this trick :)

Do as thoun tells.

For me, it works in chrome.

So you have a bga page, in simple mode. Keep it.
My suggestion is keep 2 BGA simple mode pages (by simple mode page, i mean the usual bga lobby page, in simple mode - so not arena).

Then open another simple mode page and turn it into arena. That is all.

You can click PLAY NOW in the arena page (maximum 3 Arena tables simultaneously), and join tables manually in the simple pages.

Yes. I rewrote what you said, but with more annoying details, mojo jojo (powerpuff girls) style, because I was not sure the people understood.
