Display Variant Info

When you accept / decline a game, there is info displaying the variant being played. That's the only shot at that info, and if you click accept quickly, as I do, it's gone forever. So, I'm often in an Oh Hell game with no idea if it is 10 > 1 > 10 or what. And lots of people in 6 Nimmt are startled when they play their first left/right game: what's going on???

Three options:
1) Button which, if clicked, displays that info anytime. Or microhelp info bubble somewhere -- like on the game name.
2) Initially display that info in the logging going on at the right of the screen.
3) For those games with plenty of space for you to display more info, it'd be nice if you displayed that info. But that gets into game display issues.

If you click on the options heading below the game, it will display all the variants relevant to the game in question.

I wasn't being clear. I meant, once a game begins, after the 'accept' screen has gone away, it'd sometimes be useful to find out what options are in play. "Is this 'left/right' nimmt or regular? I just clicked 'accept' without looking."

The answer of Lotus Blossom is what you are looking for, the „Options“ tab is below the game table as it begins till the end.

You guys are right, I'm wrong. Thanks. Sorry.

Moderators, feel free to delete this whole string.

Delete someone admitting an error on the internet? Do you know how rare that is??? :)

And, no worries about the confusion. Sometimes it is hard to tell where people are indicating you look just from text descriptions.
