new GAME FINDER format
With apologies to whomever spent the time and effort to redesign the GAME FINDER format, but I find it much more cumbersome to sort through. I much prefer the previous format.
Re: new GAME FINDER format
agree completely. new game finder is unusable.basic ui principles much better in old. cannot easily scan, cannot see minutes in speed game. bad enough for me to stop using site.
Re: new GAME FINDER format
What changed? I don't see it...
Bollocks.

Re: new GAME FINDER format
Sorry administrators, but I am finding the new format very difficult.
I don't want to have games show up that are already full.
I don't want to have to count how many players are already signed in and compare to how many players are asked for... and frustrates me even more when I have to scroll down to count the number of players already logged in.
I don't want to sign in to a game and then press back button to return to my search, only to find that I have to re-enter all the details once again.
This is the first time I have lodged a complaint, as I normally do not wish to make fuss, and I'm even more adverse to doing it knowing that there was a good chance that a lot of time went into the changes, but it just doesn't work for me and I'm getting frustrated. Sorry.

Re: new GAME FINDER format
At least for the moment the old finder is still available at http://www.conquerclub.com/player.php?mode=find just remove 2 from the end of the new url

There is a "waiting for players" option to avoid that one.

Re: new GAME FINDER format
Presenting information on individual cards that take up a lot of space, are difficult to scan through, and offer severely limited sorting options?

I feel like smacking my head against the wall. Whyyyyy does the game finder need to be changed again? I didn't see a problem with it.
Infact I compare CC's top guys to those fuckers at work who get a list to do. a 1-10 list. 1 being important. They do the list 3-4-7-6 etc because instead of doing whats needed they do what they feel like doing/want to do/easiest.

To be honest, apart from the black box at the bottom I dont see any difference. Its still all the same stuff.

Re: new GAME FINDER format
Not a fan of game finder as it is right now. I suppose i will adjust.
I just did a search, the only criteria i used was eurasia, 24 hours, waiting, public.
One of the games it gave me was #15884317 which is an 8 player game which currently displays 8 game registrants.

Re: new GAME FINDER format
I played with it and I kind of like it I think.
But I really don't like not being able to display results in a list format.
For tournament purposes that is horrible.
Anybody have a workaround?
If I am the creator of a tournament, why can I not see who I reserved a spot for?

Re: new GAME FINDER format
I think this change was made because the list format did not work well on small screens. But if that's the case, then this should only be used for the mobile version of the site.

Re: new GAME FINDER format
Am I dumb or can I not join a doubles game without being added to the next open slot as opposed to picking the slot I want to be in. Basically I want to join Team 3 and invite my partner but it just lets me "JOIN" and sticks me as a partner on Team 2.
