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?

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.

Glad to be able to choose the order of discard by history !

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.
