Board Game Arena

I would really swear I have in the past searched for a game by its ID on here. But I have been through every page that exists on here and cannot find any place to do this. The closest I can find is searching my own games by dates, but nothing for entering an ID.

Am I crazy, or has this changed or what?

Not quite sure what you are looking for: do you want to be able to search for a range of ids or do you want to be shown one certain match with an id you know?

the former: no idea, can't remember it ever being possible
the latter: just go to that game, no need to search when you know it already. Page is https://en.boardgamearena.com/#!table?table=31415926

The second. Using a link from another game does work, but I would swear there used to be a place where I could just pop that ID in without having to open another game and replacing the ID.

Unrelated, I also can no longer find a way to chat with an individual outside a game. I think some of these subtle changes they keep making are causing some of this stuff to disappear.

Go to the player's profile, and select "Discuss" at the top of the page.

I'm not seeing that. There's a Message button but that's the PM system.

You can see the Discuss button only when the player is online

Hmm, I'd swear I was trying to do that with someone who was online. I admit I could be crazy.
