Board Game Arena

Is this possible or can it be added as an option/filter to search games based on a number of players?

I would love this. I often play with a group that can be 4,5, or 6 players and it would be nice to easily filter games depending on how many of us are playing.

It would be nice if you were able to filter on a whole bunch of criteria. Put in a filter to not show games you can't join. A filter for number of players. One for game speed. One for specific options within the games you say you want to play...

Yeah, this is one area where BGA really needs some improvement. Filtering out games you can't join is the biggest, and beyond that it would be really useful to be able to filter by specific games without having to add or remove them from your list. As far as I can tell you can't even sort the list at the moment. It's surprising that such a key usability feature hasn't been improved yet. I'd have thought it was far more important to the success of the site than any competition or new game release.

One more vote for filtering out tables you can't join, at the very least.

+1. This has been already suggested many times.

Yup, and it'll get suggested many more. I agree with Andy_K that it's hard to believe something hasn't been done about the invite list. I was even coming here to find a thread to add something else to it. I just ran across a bazillion tournament invites in the turn-based list. Talk about a lot to scroll through. I've never seen that before.

I suppose I might have occasion when I'd want to see what's there for fun, a set of filters would be best. i.e. I don't know that I want to force people into not looking at all invites if they so choose. I'm not sure why private ones need to be there, but there could be filters for all sorts of things. Although, if you could filter out ones you just don't qualify for, it would make the list easier to search without a bunch of extra filters.
