PLEASE BRING BACK THE OLD VERSION. IT WAS JUST FINE. THIS NEW ONE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO NAVIGATE. E.G. i USED TO LOOK IN THE 'FREE' TOURNAMENTS FOR THE ONES THAT CHARGE 10 CENTS AND ALLOW YOU TO BE RESEATED. CANNOT FIND THEM ANYWHERE NOW. I'VE MISSED SIGNING UP FOR TOURNAMENTS THESE PAST FEW DAYS. I SPEND A LOT OF BBO $$ BUT WILL NOT BE DOING THAT UNTIL THE OLD VERSION OF TOURNAMENT LISTS COMES BACK. :(

I really dislike this new "improvement." You've actually made it more difficult for me to find the games I'm interested in.

Is your computer set to another time zone than where you actually live? We used to have a bug related to off synch between user's local computer time and their actual time zone, but it should have been resolved.

Give me more details please; you can send me a private message or email diana@bridgebase.com so we can understand why you are seeing the wrong times.


It has righted itself. However, it should not make a difference what my computer's time zone is set to -- unless you are inferring user time zone based on IP address. Hopefully you are using epoch time and having the client figure out how long till a tourney starts.

I like the filtering, but would very much appreciate filtering on point strata; in particular, to show open games only.

The font is impossible for me to read without squinting my eyes. This is horrible. Please bring back the old version if you cannot do better than this.



I agree with that, I'm an older person and I know that a lot of older players play, what you've done is very tiring you have to stare, because the list is very unreadable. Why are you ruining what was good? Do you make players angry? It is difficult to explain it logically.I apologize in advance for any errors, because I use a translator.

Seems like a one or two line change of CSS font styling would placate most of the NIMBBOYers around here. There is plenty of white/grey blank space on the new list to do it.

While you're at it, hows about making the default font size on the forums a little bigger, too!

Please if you make something new please try not to be as awful as this one is. It was on, and it was off with the sigh of releif from the users, now it's back with vengeance. I'll give you a couple of comments in an effort to make the new list bearable:

- first and foremost the filters are silly and useless. You cannot filter out what you do not want. For example, if you go through the BXP button, you have zillion of tournaments shown. First 4 to 5 pages are daylong, then silly ABCL house (maybe there is a reason they are first even though they might be played hours later :)). So, if you want to play a normal tournament a lot of fussing with the mouse is needed. Exclusion filters are a must.

- there are very few fields. Everything is now lumped together in an obnoxious and unreadable string. please make this as a set of fields that can be then searched and sorted upon.

- related to above, once you create useful fields, implement sorting up/down initiated by the click on the heading.

- I saw somebody mentioning the flyover pop-up. That would be a solution for long fields, i.e. tournament name.

- Almost all of the comments here are negative. That should gve you a hint. Why not first select a subgroup of users that are willing to suffer through changes and test on them as opposed to antagonize all user.

- etc, etc, so please it is not difficult to explain what you want to Chat GPT and let it create a usable list. I am willing to give you a description of the functionality/requirements that I am sure would easily be accepted by 90% of users.

All together huh

Absolutely terrible. Fonts are too small and everything is unclear, The old format was so much better. Reading through the comments I haven't seen anyone who congratulates you on the changes. So who did you consult? Obviously not the users!

It would be very helpful to be able to sort the records. I would want to be able to view specifically by time before a tournament is to begin. It is sort of sorted but there are tournaments listed out of time left order. Also would like to see number of entries sorted within a time range.
