"You must play this other game first"

PLEASE stop forcing which table we have to take a turn at. Sometimes you need a moment to think. It makes sense that I take my turns on other tables and come back to a game. Forcing which table I should be playing at means NONE of my tables progress. Surely BGA wants you to play your games? Forcing tables slows all my games down which just dampens the experience for everyone. All my tables are going to sit for another 6 hours till I have a chance to get back to them when most of them could be progressing.

If we remove this system, players will use it to "cheat the ladder", as they will only finish the game they are winning to go higher in the ranking, and let stall the games they are losing ;)

I sent you a message on Discord to explain what the problem was specifically on the Reflection game, I don't know if other games are affected ...

I'm not sure if I understand the problem correctly.

When I have multiple turn games and I click the table icon in the top-right corner, it automatically takes me to one of them and it's always the same table. Also when I click to go to the next table from another table, it always chooses the same table (the one I have the least time left I guess). I find it frustrating when I'm on the phone and there is one game there that I want to make my move on computer because it's hard or unpleasant to do it on a small screen. Is that the problem you mean? If so, you can click on your avatar and then the table icon on the bar there and see the list of all your tables and go to the one you want and make your move there. It's a little frustrating, because I instinctively click on the other table icon, the one that takes me to the table I don't want at the moment, but it's not impossible to choose at what order you play your turns
