i know i'll get used to it quickly...

I can understand why all users of the wood set are not as happy with the new pieces. I was unable to replicate what we had before, and I'm not 100% happy with the new set either.

Everytime I try to click on a piece it goes to the square above. Very frustrating. Why's it doing that?

I hate the my games page - you don't see if your game's a tourney game, which round etc etc - absolutely hate it

Great ... now I have to see the drivel by gb again. The greasemonkey script doesn't work.

So long. First the GF died. Now the site does.

Hate?

The icon still tells you whether the game is from a tournament, clan, ladder or siege setup on the MyGames page.

Are you using Internet Explorer 8?

If so, are you zooming in your browser? If so, please remove the zoom (back to 100% ) and let us know if that helps.

The zoom icon is in the bottom right of your web browser.

Try using the new second view on My Games page, there are three to choose from, one more than we had before.

Hi, Kegge. Would you feel the same way if Jane's name was Alice?

I HATE this new format!!!!!
Its such a waste of my screen, and even worse, its such a waste of this once beautiful site!!

Can I have at least a button to toggle to the old format??

Wow - my posts are now being deleted by the moderator!! Presumably because I said I was going to a rival website (who will now remain anonymous).

Once everyone has got over the shock of "new" and got a little familiar with what the site looks now, I will start a consultation.

Nothing is fixed, and change can be rapid, but there is a lot of noise right now, clearly most indicating they "don't like", but also enough saying they do.
