Hopefully everyone knows about the "dislike player" icon that can help you avoid players you don't like... (if you don't, go take a look at the blog post which describes it). Now, you have a way to keep track of players that you like as well! There's a yellow star next to each player:
 |
| like this player |
Another new feature is the table listings area. Use the "list of tables" link at the lower left corner to open a panel that displays card games with available seats:
 | |
| table listings |
The list displays registered users with a green "R" while Guests are indicated by the letter "G" and robots are a pink "B". A yellow star (★) indicates a player that you have liked. Empty seats are indicated with an open square (☐). Relevant information is displayed about the table as well.
You may click on an empty seat, indicated by an open square, to take that seat. Be aware that if the seat is taken before the panel updates, you won't be able to take that seat! So grab it quick if you are interested.

Hey, I like this....Thank you....
Ahhhhh, don't like it anymore. The list of tables also shows the private table names!
Hi Anon,
It just shows any private table names that you have already set yourself in your Options tab. If you don't trust me, you can test this by changing your private table name using the Options button (but don't forget to change it back!).
So if you've chosen a specific private table name by clicking on the Options button, you will see any table(s) with that name in the table listings.
I should be clear: this only applies for private table names for the same game. So e.g. if you have "test1" set for Spades, you will not see a private table with the name "test1" for Hearts - unless you also have chosen that name for Hearts as well.
Also, if you have the private table option unchecked, you will still see your designated private tables in the listings. Again this is true just for the single private table name you have chosen for each specific game.
Hi Marya,
thanks for this improvement - I like it even if I didn't try it yet. Compliments for your work,
Doriano
i like both new features -
question - difference between yellow G and white G?
A yellow G indicates a "new user" - explained here - while a white G is a guest who has been playing at the site for a while.
This is a terrific feature: Question: will an available table show up if it includes a player you have disliked?
Hi Anon @ Dec 15 7:43 PM -
Good question! Tables that contain players that you have disliked do not show up in the table listings. Once you've disliked a player, the site will not seat you with them, so there is no point showing such a table in the list.
How does one select a custom character instead of the assigned "fox"?
Hi Unknown, just click on the "Avatar" link in the upper left corner of the screen. A panel will appear with all available avatars. Click on the one you want to set it for yourself.
why is table set for no people replacing robots? how to change?
I've added a blog page that describes the difference between replaceable bots and bots that cannot be replaced by humans. Please take a look there.
You can also play with bots and not worry about any human players coming to the table by setting an Option. Make sure this option is not checked if you want to play with humans.
