"My Waiting Lists", I'm tired of clicking back and forth between several waiting lists to see how they are progressing, part of my own personal problem with this, is that the narrow rating ranges are now taking altogether too long to fill up, and that's why I check the waiting lists altogether too often. Maybe I'll devise a Selenium script for that purpose, and share it under this forum post, unless I get a positive response from Thib regarding this idea

Another option is to save all your FICGS emails, which I indeed do, search for "entry confirmation", and one will find all their FICGS tourney entry emails, and then one can whittle that down to find waiting list entries. So the heck with it, I will *not* be utilizing any programming tool for this particular task.

However it would be much easier, and not just for me, if there were a "My Waiting Lists" link to click, esp. for players who DONT save their FICGS emails ..

I should have done this long ago... I'll try to do it this month.

Just added the feature in Waiting lists... Any feedback welcome.

I think they need to have the section number indicated, since I am in both std class_M 000174 and class_A 000304, and also they should be hyperlinks.

great work! thanks :)

Thib, there is *still* a problem with the "your waiting lists" feature: now, *both* the world-champ, and the cup, are listed for me. I would imagine this would be easy enough to resolve?

Not that simple... in some cases, it should be useful.

ok, this site is obviously fundamentally broken; couldn't you just have an "ongoing events" for the championship and cup sites. I don't know if that helps or not.

Your responses are typically inscrutable. I'm done with suggestions EXCEPT, roll back the fucking rating ranges to the way they were, at least they used to fill up with regularity, but no longer. I know, I goaded you into changing them, but it's obvious to anybody THAT THE CHANGE HAS NOT WORKED OUT. I know, I know, not so easy to roll back, because YOU'RE PROBABLY NOT USING VERSION CONTROLLING.

Particapating on this site other than actually playing is useless, and the actual play is becoming harder and harder to realize.

Guess it's time for me to try LSS; I'm already on ICCF. But I am NOT going to juggle games on 3 sites. SO well done, you're on your way to losing another (PAIN IN THE ASS, I admit) user.

Good luck anyway! Best wishes, Thibault
