change to "play again" button behavior in arenas

Post by memeasaurusrex »

since the new arena started this week when you click play again it auto queues you for a play rather than going to the game main page, almost missed games twice not realizing this, did they announce this edit somewhere? would it be possible to revert or add a third button so it's "return to main site" "return to game page" and "play again" (with autoqueue)?

not just for arena. its happening in reg games and I agree, change it back to it taking you to the main game set up page. some times you want to change the conditions like invite people.

If you are interested I think it could be a new feature in the bga Browser extension.

I agree that the "play again" button should go back to what it was historically. I tripped over this several times before I realized what was going on. Habits are hard to break and I see no justification for this change. Please revert it.

The last version of the browser extension https://en.doc.boardgamearena.com/ChromeExtension allows you to revert this behavior to the previous one.
It's already available for Firefox and will be in a few days for Google Chrome.
