headius: I watch almost more than I play at Vogclub, but that's a realtime site. I've watched a few games here - usually when I'm in an active game myself and clicking on the games that my opponent is playing.

It would be handy to know who's playing something watchable. It is, of course, possible to go through a game once it has ended but it's not the same. In Backgammon I can tell you that I, TC and kie19 tend to play a game right through if possible.

One possible indicator is to have a person's refresh rate shown in their profile. It wouldn't be reliable but could be a good give a hint. Mine's set to 2 minutes. Lol. Even then I often click the refresh button to get to the next move.
