Few suggestions

[MickyB]

Some (if not all) of these have been mentioned before, but here goes...

 

1) It would be nice to be able to see friend's lobby chat, but block out everyone elses.

 

2) I'd like more flexibility in which names can be shown on the main screen - for example, displaying all of my friends, all of the hosts, and all Brits. Currently I can't cut out 'neutrals' of other nationalities without losing half of my friends.

 

3) Bubbles currently appear over the bidding. When you click on it to see the bidding again, the trick just finished is taken away so you can no longer look at the previous trick. If the bubble cannot appear elsewhere instead, maybe clicking on it should not remove the cards?

 

4) Many people seem to start Post Mortems as the last trick is being played. I'd prefer this trick to be played automatically, and possibly some earlier cards as well when there is nothing more to the play, eg when someone has only high trumps left.

 

5) It would help if tournaments in progress displayed how many boards were left. If I would only want to sub for a few boards, I currently have to kibitz a table first to check how far through the tournament is. If kibs aren't allowed then I can't even do that.

All but 3) are very reasonable suggestions.

You are obviously referring to the situation where you can see 2 tricks at the same time, when the last card of a trick has just been played. But I think that beeing able to see 2 tricks simultaneously is not really intended. Just as a convenience, the cards remain open after the last card has been displayed. After all, you cannot control how long you see both tricks anyway unless you have won the previous trick. Maybe an easy solution is to first look at the previous trick and then click away the bubble in order to see the bidding.
