Buttons to Navigate to next or previous table

Post by Fran78 »

As I used to play multiple turn-based games at a time, I'd suggest to design buttons to facilitate navigation to "next" and "previous" tables. Certainly, one can navigate to the following table once his round is over. But there is no way to return to the previous table without having to play his game turns on all the other tables.

Yep, would be nice, but in the meantime you could just use your browser history to go to previous tables. Depending on soft- and hardware used there are a few possibilities:
- Alt + cursor left
- a mouse button
- back button of your browser
- mouse gestures
- ...

Besides using a back button, you can also click on your name upper right to get to your profile or back to the main page. (I think that depends on the browser.) From there you can go to your currently played games and go into any one you would like. That of course will not go in any particular order - you sill have to decide what game to go into. (This is quicker and easier in Firefox than IE, but couldn't tell you about any other browser, device, etc.)

You're definitely right, thanks for these workarounds.
I'm lazy. As I told you previously, it is not uncommon that I participate in multiple tables and I often go to the "following" table without playing my turn. That's the reason why I suggested it..! :roll:

I agree, that it would be nice to have these buttons. When I have only 5 minutes, I like to make moves in simpler games, but games like Tash-Kalar for example, might need more thought, so I skip those without completeing my move.

My workaround for this is the following: I go to the "my games in progress" page, where I can see all of them listed, and open the ones I'd like to check on a new tab (right click -> open in a new tab). Then from the tab texts, I can easily see, in which of those it is my turn... When I have more time, I even open all of my turn-based games this way, and while doing other stuff, I glance at the tabs every now and then to see, if it is my turn in any of them.

As a variant, it would be fine to have "go to next table" button available all the time in turn-based games, not only after the turn done.
