Improvement to Games In Progress Screen

When I look at my profile and click on the games in progress, I get an URL like this: https://boardgamearena.com/gameinprogress?player= (I have removed the player info).

On that page, we see Games in Progress with some information.

What I would like to see added to each of the boxes that describe the game is *whose turn it is at the moment*. This is particularly useful for multi-player turn-based games used by those of us playing with folks far across the globe and in different time zones.

I should not need to dive into the game itself to see who the game may be waiting on.

It would be nice to have some icon or indicator in the list of players to say whose turn it currently is (or you could do it in text in the descriptive text) - the particular method isn't a big deal, just having that information easily available in this view for each game without gonig into the game would be great.

It's the player with the hourglass I think. But I can't explain why some of your games on your screenshot don't have any.

It does show that at the moment. The hour glass indicates that the system is waiting on a decision from that player.
