Is it just me? The current sorting of the "ARCHIVED" tab by 'Game Number'/Win/Lose ..... is a total turn-off to me.

Why? Because, for review purposes, I want to see my most recently completed and archived games 'win' or 'lose' - as the most recent games on the list, where they are easy to find.

I don't keep track of the game numbers of the games I am currently playing. Some of those games are completed within a few days or a week or two - - - - BUT - - - - the games that really MATTER to me are the ones that have been a long drawn out battle, often stretching out over months.

Sadly, when those awesome battles are wrapped up, they disappear into the fog of time :( on the current ARCHIVED game list :(

If it's just me then I will need to live with it.

I'm just wondering if anyone else would like to see the ARCHIVED tab go back to listing games by date completed?

If it's just me then I will need to live with it.

I agree. So far as I recall, before the old system went under the archived games were listed in the order they finished in - which was useful as you could check what had happened in games. Sometimes (esp on escalate) a game will finish out of the blue when someone sweeps the board. With things as they are those games just disappear.

It's good to learn from the competition, and D12 has a nice clear system for displaying finished games - all showing in a list in order of finish date, most recent at the top, saying win/lose, and giving a link.
