What I mean is while in a private game, you click watch.. there is no way to play again unless you make a new game. its really annoying while playing winner stays on..

I already mentioned this in the new layout thread somewhere mate but yeah i think it would be a great idea to add a start playing button once you are watching

Good call lad......id like to be able to do that.

Also, the oldest request surely, to be able to watch games as soon as you enter the room rather than waiting for a new game.
I remember nick saying somewhere he was working on it, will that be part of the next update?

You mean you can't see it?

Oh that's right, this idea is fully implemented on my development machine but not released yet.

Ah, just to clarify that this was ability to switch between watching and playing. Ability to watch game from any point is not available, that requires a large change in the system.

ahh so if i was in a private room and started watching, i could start playing again as well.

one other thing on that point is when you become the owner of a game room could you not take over the invite side of it as well.
Currently, you can only invite if you created the room but being able to invite people when in a room you didnt create would be great

gutted that you didnt mean what me and ste thought you did Will that ever be avaiable or is it too large a change?

If the view to watch any game while joining half way through came in, that would be one of the best updates by far! I'd love it to be implemented.

Do you think this will ever happen nick? As you said it requires a large change to the system.

Yes, I want to add it. It's probably the next significant change.
