@Very-Rusty saidUnnecessary
I concur with you on that one. Hopefully it will eventually all be come old hat.
I finally figured out how to see my games against another player "ONLY" and then I have to count the greens and reds and yellows to find out my wins, loses and draws.
We will eventually get use to it, at the moment I don't think it is as User Friendly as the old Format. I do like the not ...[text shortened]... you. Also there are some other changes that I like, it will take some getting use to for me.

@A-Unique-Nickname saidAnnoying?
Annoying
Ahh I see what you did there, I agree with you. Hopefully we will all get the hang of the New Format. I am sure a lot of work went into it not to mention time and most likely money.

@Very-Rusty saidTell me something, why is it that when I chose to see the ‘games with the least time remaining’ there’s often a straggler lower down the page who really should be at the top?

@Drewnogal said“Stragglers” usually are at the end of anything, aren’t they? That’s why they’re called stragglers.🤔😁

@Drewnogal saidI have my setting the same way "Least time remaining" I find if I leave that area and go back in it will sometimes move to another setting. So I check now when I go in as it would be possible to time out if you didn't notice it. I don't know if it would be an easy fix, I meant to report that to Russ. It just seemed like such a petty thing, although I must admit irritating to have to reset it all the time.

@Very-Rusty saidI’ve lost 2 games to timeout this past week. So annoying as one was a 1,800 rated player who I thought I might beat 🤔

@Drewnogal saidYes I understand. Did you send feedback to Russ on it also? It is annoying but good idea to check each time you go out and back in to make sure it is on the same setting. I do know once you are on it will usually stay unless you go out of that area, then you may have to reset. That is what I was saying about one of the reasons it wasn't user friendly. It is routine for me now to check to make sure it is on "least time remaining"!!! There is also a "least Timeout Remaining" right under it.

@Very-Rusty saidI didn’t, it was my fault this time tbh. Have been very preoccupied with my gardening. Nipping out to do a quick task can easily turn into hours.

@Drewnogal saidJust a suggestion might be a good idea to check any short term games you have going, before going out. I try to play mainly 3/7 but have played lower time limits. I am sure it happens to many people at one time or other. Nice to get out and do some gardening for sure.

@Drewnogal saidMaybe invest in a Fitbit or an I watch. I think they can inform you if a move is needed, eminently.🤔😉

@Great-Big-Stees saidThe Site features can do the same thing without needing anything else, but one has to keep an eye on it. I wouldn't get anything else to do what the Site can do.
