Check looking for players

[bobberuchi]

There is an option for a game to look at looking for players options.

As an example I am in a waiting room for a table. There are 3 other tables with the same settings.

However, they are not filling up.

WHY?

Because people do not check for looking for players

just plain silly (not my word of choice)

If they have the same settings, I believe they will be automatically matched to those other tables eventually.

However, there could be many reasons why they don't join those ones. Personally, I almost never see waiting tables with the settings I want - eg. different number of players, different speed, includes/doesn't include an expansion I don't want/want. There could also be player level restrictions on them (eg. I don't want exceptionally strong players at my beginner table). Additionally, on the off-chance that one player has red-thumbed another player, the latter player cannot see tables including the former player.

Additionally, on the off-chance that one player has red-thumbed another player, the latter player cannot see tables including the former player.

Or the other way around (you don't see tables with people you have red-thumbed, or with people who have red-thumbed you). And even if they can (and they can, in the "old" lobby), they clearly don't want to join them. Or they just don't want to play with that person, without necessarily a red thumb involved.
