Would be nice to have this play the next game that will time out.

It's a pain in the bum when you have over 100 games having to go back to the home screen to select the next game in the list.

or am I missing something?

The "oldest first" setting (which is misnamed) pretty much does that, other than that it doesn't take grace time into account in tourneys -- and we recommend you pretend you don't have any grace time in tourneys anyway. :-) It works by selecting the game that's nearest its timeout time (ignoring grace time).

Enjoy your games,

It always starts with the game you're on, if that helps explain what you're seeing.

Sorry not sure what you mean?

Like just now I played a game at the top of the list and then hit next game.

The game it went to is 54 games down the list.

Top of the list is move by 13/12/12 06:01:09 AM and the game down the list it went to is move by 15/12/12 06:22:19 AM.

I have seeting of Go through all games (oldest first)

Hi,

The list is shown to you allowing for grace time, the next game link doesn't look at grace time.

I'm having the same problem as Mr666. Can we have an option for "First to time out"? I would like to have the next game played be the next game at the top of my list. I also have to keep going back to the home page to go to the next game.

I did see your previous comment and my games are already set at that. I think what we are both trying to say is that we would like another option where the games at the top of the list play first. I know it's a big ask but just something on my wishlist :-)

I seem to get oldest first when i click next game. Have it set oldest first for oldest first in tournies, then to other private games.

I assumed that next game, went to the first game on your list. It doesn't always do that. so don't ever count on counting how many expire today and play that many, it doesn't work. Also I am wondering if all your games are listed in games??

The problem is it doesn't always give you game that expires first. So guess I better check more carefully...PJ what is grace time? Is it always the same amount of time??
