Maybe I'm not seeing it, but why isn't there a "Find Soonest Game" button or something? The best I've been able to see is to put in the current time, and still, you have to look at each post: Plays in One Hour, Plays in Three Days, Plays A Year From Now, Plays In Two Weeks, etc. Seems like it would be pretty easy to just have a sort mechanism that sorts by, ya know, time? Games that just started, followed by games that start in 30 minutes, followed by games that start in an hour... and games that start a year from now, ya know, like, at the very end of the list! Here's an example: Gonna go look up games that start at 9:00 pm, because that's about 15 minutes from now. Don't need keywords, don't need Language. Any day is fine, although I'd like a TODAY button here. So I leave these all blank as well. Not gonna check games that welcome new players; if they're posted here, I assume they want new players. Don't care if it's played once, weekly, or anything. Leave these all blank too! Starting at approximately: 9 pm. Quote: "We'll show games within 3 hours of this time" endquote. Hit the FIND GAMES button and I get... Oh joy, it doesn't recognize "9 pm". Let's try 9:00 pm. Nope, doesn't recognize that either! Let's try "9:00 PM" Nope, apparently this format is entirely foreign to the system! Let's try, on a hunch here, "9:00PM" without a space... Brilliant. That worked! Such a confusing concept, the space bar. I can certainly understand how a computer could have difficulty understanding it. Anyway, what's listed. Let's take a look. In order: 20 minutes from now 1 day from now 1 day from now 1 week from now 1 day from now 1 month from now 2 weeks from now 5 days from now 1 day from now 5 days from now 2 weeks from now 1 week from now 2 weeks from now 1 week from now 1 YEAR from now! 2 days from now. And so on. Insane. Crazy. Worthless. Useless. Did Not Sort. Honestly, what kind of search algorithm is it that you people are using here? The infinite-monkeys-on-infinite-keyboards system??? It's simple. Time is universal. Don't even need to sort by time zone, just tell me what game starts soonest, what game starts soonest after that, and so on. Do it in order, and do it in some logical manner. As it is, this method of searching is nearly useless to me! Is it just me? Am I missing something blatantly obvious to everyone else? How do people who aren't me use this thing, 'cuz I just plain don't get it! L'il help please.
