It has been pretty frustrating to have every page take forever to load now. I am paying $25 a year for this. Could we please work more on keeping the loads fast? I really don't care about marketing, I care about game play and game quality. You guys do that in spades. Let's keep the focus on being the best game site in the world, and it won't matter what your logo is.
Anyone else notice the lag seems to be only on computers, not phones?
Not saying it is acceptable but might curb a little frustration.

I don't like the cloud-look. "There's NO CLOUD just other's people computers."
(quote from fsfe.org). I agree with that.

A small request: in the CSS styles for the wiki "how to play" instructions that appear at the bottom of games during play, it would be nice to distinguish between main heads and secondary heads. Currently if I mark heads at any level they all appear the same. (I was revising the wiki page for Tash-Kalar recently.)

Hey thanks -- I see that the change was made. A further request: currently the CSS doesn't support numbered or unnumbered lists (the bullets/numbers just vanish)--could those be implemented?

When I asked I was told it isn't happening at all. It is just in our imagination. I would be happy to do a google hangout to show them, but again, it is us, not them.

Four colours reminded me of retro boardgame pawns, this is just some 80s purple goo. I always use an old link to access bga, it stands out so much more in the list.

Omg you had me at purple goo
Yes exactly i love the retro pawns as you called them

I also have my saved desktop icon with the old icon
Sadly on ipad the site no longer runs as an app, or however it used to
It used to be when i clicked the desktop bookmark it launched as its own process and then move/turn sounds would work
When site runs on safari it doesnt make game sounds
Hope this feature can be restored or resolved
