I had some success with this a few days ago. But this time I am trying to load this bug report (with associated table).

https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=14282
https://studio.boardgamearena.com/1/sai ... able=68171

Original BGA table:
https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=63292419

I click the button 'Load bug report' button and it says 'Done' but nothing gets updated. Click 'Load1' but nothing is imported.

Ok, I'll try to take a look when I can. This is rarely used but the last time I tried it worked...

This game has ended, and the report has been created several hours later, so the game database had already been cleaned up.

This functionality is only for checking bug reports created during ongoing games or very shortly after when the database is still available. I thought it was mentioned in the documentation but indeed it is not, I'll add something about this.

Hi.

The game was a real-time day and happened yesterday. I tried doing this later the same day in the evening, so maybe just a few hours later.

It would be good if when you click the 'Load bug report' button it came back with an appropriate message,

Yes, we don't keep the real time DB tables very long after a game has ended.

Sure, everything can be polished to perfection with enough time to spare! Still, this is a fringe development feature rarely used, clearly not a priority (except to update the doc, which is done).

I can't see why it's fringe, surely it get you to exactly the right spot straight-away. I have tried to recreate the bug but can't.

Maybe it's not used much because it's difficult to use and only relevant on such small sample of games. :D
