Could the "my games" menu be sorted by the number of players who need to take thier turns rather than how many hours the current player has left?

Concise description:

If an active game has 2 players that need to go before you, it should be listed before a game that has 7 players that need to go before you - the one you recently played on is sent to the bottom.
Games have the same number of players that need to go before you should then be organized by hours remaining for the current player.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:

A more organized and efficient interface that allows you quick access to the games that have changed the most since you last saw them.

I think 4myGod explains it very well:

"So let's say you have 3 games:

CURRENT SORTING:
1. 15hrs time remaining / 7 players need to make a turn before it's your turn
2. 20hrs time remaining / 1 player needs to make a turn before it's your turn
3. 21hrs time remaining / 1 players need to make a turn before it's your turn

Chances are that #2 and #3 will become your turn sooner than #1, because there is only 1 player needing to go before you in those games. So first sort by the number of players that are left to make a turn, then sort by the time remaining for them to make it.

NEW SORTING:
1. 20hrs time remaining / 1 player needs to make a turn before it's your turn
2. 21hrs time remaining / 1 players need to make a turn before it's your turn
3. 15hrs time remaining / 7 players need to make a turn before it's your turn"

An interesting suggestion, perhaps make the 'My Games' screens customisable from the Control Panel?

It is interesting, but I think unnecessary. I can see where you are coming from, a Freemium who is eager to play his next turn, but has to worry about how many players go before him.

With Premium members, plenty of people have many active games to keep track of, and switching it up like this could be very confusing. Right now, we can clearly see how many players go before us by just looking at our Games Page, and the hours left for a player to take their turn is clearly displayed.

This is a good suggestion, but I like the way our games are displayed how it is.

I like the idea, and I like the idea of making it customizable as suggested by Premier2k. Of course, making it customizable means more programming work, so it becomes less likely to be implemented.

I think it's a great idea.

I don't know if everyone understands. There would be no design change whatsoever, just sorting a different order. So let's say you have 3 games:

CURRENT SORTING:
1. 15hrs time remaining / 7 players need to make a turn before it's your turn
2. 20hrs time remaining / 1 player needs to make a turn before it's your turn
3. 21hrs time remaining / 1 players need to make a turn before it's your turn

Chances are that #2 and #3 will become your turn sooner than #1, because there is only 1 player needing to go before you in those games. So first sort by the number of players that are left to make a turn, then sort by the time remaining for them to make it.

NEW SORTING:
1. 20hrs time remaining / 1 player needs to make a turn before it's your turn
2. 21hrs time remaining / 1 players need to make a turn before it's your turn
3. 15hrs time remaining / 7 players need to make a turn before it's your turn

Bump. I'd like to see more opinions on this.
