Go Back to Table button should be...

Post by rob2e »

Doesn't it make sense that if you're done cycling through your turn-based games, that rather than return to the tables list, you would want to go back to the "Play Now" screen so you can start new games instead of looking at a list of tables you really can't do anything with at that point?

I prefer the tables list (like it is now)

Perhaps if they had a toggle to please everyone? It is SO ANNOYING to have to go back to the tables list THEN click again to go to the Play Now.

Can I ask you why? I'm curious but I can't see the benefit of it

I like the overview of my agenda. See what other games, that I haven't played just now, are already in progress for me. When I see there that I already have a game XY in progress, I might not wanna start a new one of the same game. When 3+ player, I might be curious about whether someone else moved and what changed in the game. Also might wanna check game chat when someone is out of time to see if they said anything about it.

I am the opposite of this. I am usually in about 150-200 turn-based games. Every time I cycle through all of them, I ALWAYS want to go back to the Play Now screen so I can see if I can add another. I find that 175 games is about the sweet spot to keep the flow going. It usually never drops below 150 or goes over 200. So my intent is to always be able to check to see if the timer is down so I can add another game.
