what about "view all games" facility which we used to have and were supposed to be getting back?

Am I missing something? With the new system I was able to all my current games on one page.

I don't mind which we have as they both seem to be fine.

You're such a good sport. I really like the way things look now. Same old feel with lots of new goodies. My favorite being that I longer have to scroll all the way up the page to put a finished game(s) in a particular folder.

I don't know if there are lots of threads dedicated to this, but the changes made were excellent. I've always wanted to be able to see the Timeout and Timebank fields in the My Games page, and sort by the total time remaining until flagfall.

I was so happy when they arrived, and they seem to have gone again. I don't care about the Last Move field. I am more interested in the urgency of making moves. If there hasn't been a move in a 7/14 game for three days I don't care.

I see that I can hover over the time to see the timebank, but I can't sort by it. I think a Flagfall column would be better than the Last Move column.

It would show the sum of the TimeOut and Timebank values, so effectively the time you have before your opponent can claim a win. You'd still want the Time column though, as most people like that too. (Maybe refer to it as 'Time In Use' as it shows your timeout when that is ticking and your timebank otherwise.)

Even if some like the current columns, maybe the new ones you invented Russ could be an alternate layout option.

Anyway, while I'm making suggestions, I never use the 'Go To Next' option on the 'After Move Preferences' because it doesn't know what I consider to be the next game. I'd love it if it used the ordering I have managed to get the My Games screen. Would save me so many screen loads.

I do see the value in sorting by timeout + timebank. But there are other times when I really want to see the games that are closest to going into timebank. Seems like both sorts could be offered.

If you use Firefox, install Adblock Plus ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865 ). Then you just right-click on the clock, and you get the option to adblock the picture.

If you don't use Firefox, start using Firefox!

Yes, but you can adblock them out. :-)

Hopefully, Russ will remove them, too, soon.

I used to have those that were awaiting my move eg most recent opponent moves at the top scrolling down to eventually those that had not moved for some time. [b]When can we have this sort facility back ?????????????

Thanks, Russ!
You know I don't get this.

Whatever was "fixed" broke it for me.

My Games page is default sorted by "Move".

I want mine sorted by "Last Move".

Every time I sort the page by "Last Move", then go to a game to play a move, then when I go back to "My Games", it is back to sorted by "Move" again! It gets really, really, really old to have to sort the My Games page by "Last Move" every single time I go to view it!

Please, please, Russ, let us sort by "Last Move" and have it stick!

It sticks for me. The sorting order is written in the coocie.
I don't have the problems you have.
