Suggestion: variant of "Speed g ...
i love the current format and i do not want it to change, but perhaps something could be added to accomodate the impatient.
sometimes, i have a long list of waiting games and opponents who are actively taking turns. turns are taken in 1-2 minutes and it requires me to exit to the game list each turn to check for the fresh ones so i can take my turn quickly.
perhaps there could be an option to toggle the "Next Game" button to last in first out? such that i would be playing the newest ones first?
I concur. Digging to the bottom of your game stack for currently actives is as frustrating as digging in your unit deck for the buried healer.
That is actually not a bad idea, as I do take games in reverse order myself sometimes, for exactly the reason you suggest. Its a lot easier to do on Steam, currently. I dont know how many other folks are doing it, so I cant say its worth it for Robot to add that option, but I would like it.
I do this when I have a long list to go through, it might make sense to reverse the order when using the next botton.
I actually do this most of the time. Would love an option to skip to the most recent game right away.
Agreed! Any option at all to help speed up play is endorsed by me!
On Steam as the other person above said it's much easier to do this as you have the menu on the left. I find myself using the Steam client more often for this very reason.
I also find myself in iOS cycling back to the main screen to jump to more recent games that are being played in close to real time, while deferring older ones (or more complicated ones) that may be progressing at a more leisurely pace on both sides.
I can appreciate the reason Robot has it setup as First In, First Out (FIFO), to encourage players to keep churning games through, but it would be great to allow both options -- or make it a toggle that can be changed in the Options menu, which would allow the default to stay exactly how it is now for new players.
