whopper: yes, at minimum, I should be able to see my games in the waiting room, complete with specified game parameters!

Subject: Re:

onigoroshi: But your waiting games already appear on your main page. Would having your opponent's desired BKR range listed there help?

Subject: Re:

Walter Montego:When you see a public invitation, it means that your BKR has been in your opponent's desired range! Otherwise BK doesn't show you the invitation at all.

Subject: Re:

King Reza: Yes, but that is not the point. onigoroshi wants to see the parameters that he specified for the games that he sent out.

onigoroshi: Now in the waiting room you only see invitations that you can accept - and this seems to be very useful to me. What Walter proposed seems to be the best solution: add a column in the waiting games section of the Main Page.

Subject: Re:

Mr. Shumway: That's what onigoroshi suggested as well("one's waiting games").

And I think it's a good idea instead of the misleading any player.

Subject: Re:

whopper: Ok, I misunderstood the term "waiting room" then.

And your link doesn't lead to the right post I think. If I am right, you wanted to reference this one

Subject: Re:

Mr. Shumway: No, I don't think your link would make sense in my weird/bad sentence either.

What I wanted to say was that displaying the desired rating range in your list of waiting games, instead of saying that "any player" can join, would avoid misunderstandings such as this one.

If this doesn't make sense either, I'll blame it on poor english and good wine.

I'll shut up now. :)

Subject: Re:

Mr. Shumway: I also agree it is a good idea. Additionally, when I click on the game, I would like to see the rating range and further details there too, such as Pawns/Knights etc allowed or not.

Fencer, keep at it, you are doing great.
