i coan understand what you were saying :D
what language do you speak?
what you wrote would probably be better like this:
And after that, "sort by time" or something like that will come so you can see which games have little time left and you wont have to scroll

That's it exactly and then you find you have to be out that evening and the fun really statys. At the moment I don't want to dead beat but I may just have to let some slide - I can't help it if the game isn't helping me :(

Good to see lack has it on the todo.

Time Remaining

Post by MOBAJOBG »

Currently, the Time Remaining is shown inside the particular game itself when you access Enter Game.

So I would appreciate it if the Time Remaining can also be shown/display in the My Games template for all active games.

This will certainly be helpful to Premium members who plays a lot of games to enable them to concentrate on the games that are about to run out of time.

showing time

Post by battlemstr »

This is just a thought, how about displaying time left in the round on the my games menu, before we enter the game.

I would too, but suggesting it again doesn't get it done any faster. Did you even look at the "to do list"?

All of the suggestions on the to-do list will eventually be implemented, thats why they call it a to-do list. He prioritizes them and implements the more important and often larger suggestions first. Just be patient, an update is coming soon.

"Time Remaining" column on the "My Games"

Post by CreepyUncleAndy »

It would be nice to see how much time the next player has remaining to start their turn (or finish taking their turn) on the "My Games" page. I normally open all four games in tabs to check on how much time is left so I can plan when to check again to take my turn, but the way it is now is so inelegant.

Having a "Time Remaining" column on the "My Games" page would be helpful. Sorry to be redundant; I just got up.

I think this would just clutter up the my game page. I like it the way it is.

Actually I think this is a good idea... it wouldn't clutter up the page too much... it would only be one new data field to add.

Come now, CUA...as an avid Suggestion poster...I thought you would've checked the To-Do list!

I'm merging this with the other thread.

time remaining to take turn on the "my games" menu

Post by Ehriggn »

I'd like to see how much time is left to take my turn without having to enter the game. In the morning have less than an hour to take my moves before I gotta go, and I'd rather not waste my time clicking into and out of games to see which of my turns are closest to being missed.
I didn't see this in the to-do or rejected list, but I have seen it suggested before.

I was going to suggest this, and found it here already.

Not only for the convenience factor, but it would also be very simple to add in, and it seems like there's no reason not to so long as enough people want it. It wouldn't cause any real lag for dialup users, and the My Games menu is relatively small for non-Premium members. (It would add up a bit more for Premium, I would expect, though it might benefit them more than the rest of us to know which games they're going to be going in sooner rather than having to check through more games than we have to.)

"My Games" to show Time Remaining and Round #

Post by Sargeant_Pepper »

When I have several games running simultaneously, I'd like to be able to quickly glance and see which games will time out first. Also, I'd like to quickly tell what round the games are in. I do not believe that these two fields will encumber the table, or make it too squished -- there is lots of unused room as it is.

In this way, a smart player can see what's happening in ALL of their games at the same time. The way it is now, I have to click each and every game to see the Round# and Time Remaining, which I don't like having to do.

Just imaging having 50 games running simultaneously. Which game should I play first? Which one has 30 minutes remaining? Which has 23 hours remaining? With this enhancement, there is no more guessing.

cheers,
felipe
