First, most important,please put back the list of pending tournaments for more than 2 hours. one day ahead would be nice, or several days as in the flash version.it seems easy in that it is just a scroll down list, and it is extremely useful.
Second, when you are at the table, you should be able to chat to the table just by starting typing as in the flash version. to type privately, you need to address the specific person. There are too many clicks to get anything accomplished.

Come clean, Barry, this is a straw man post so you can claim you just fixed the 2 most important limitations, right? ;)

The Flash client lists tournaments to start in the next 2 hours, always did.

In fact, Flash and HTML5 clients use the same way to get the tourney list.

If you mean the Windows client, then yes, it did list tourneys for the next week.


On chat:

To table is the default if you didn't chat in this session.

If you did, it does remember the destination for your last chat.

The current intended recipient is in the blue button in the chat line, click on it to get a menu of alternative recipients.

The issue, Gerardo, is that we oldies are used to just typing and having it show up in the relevant typing box (bid explanation request, Alert line on bidding box, or by default, to the chat box.) With HTML5, you have to click it.

Which is annoying even if you don't forget you have to and have to retype everything you just said which has gone into the void.
