App has its drawbacks in terms of search and quoting, but its brilliant for easily reading along in a game.

I particularly like how it brings you to the last post you viewed. So I can put the phone away for 10 (ok, ok, 1) minutes and come back being able to read through the recent posts in order.

Search be non existent and quoting is a chore... but it's grand for me anyways.

Right, I’ve switched to responsive. Necros post above - I can’t see both pters quote and the reply on my phone as it doesn’t fit. I had to scroll.

Where’s the multi quote too? I know it’s not in touch site but I thought the responsive was to be an improvement in touch?

Baggly · 24-01-2018 09:23AM

In the app, you multiquote by tapping on the text you want to quote

Baggly · 24-01-2018 09:23AM

I realise that is useless info for you SM.

Necro · 24-01-2018 09:24AM

I've never used the responsive site Strawbs so I really have no idea... Soz

24-01-2018 09:29AM

Nah, I’m willing to try the app if need be.

Just a bit pissed off that the night before the feedback thread closes, beasty says it’s all systems go on the responsive site not giving much time to discuss it. I have followed that thread from the beginning and I don’t think (I could be wrong) that it was mentioned before.

For fairness I’ve switched to responsive and I can’t see any changes to what it was like 18 months ago.

Does the app still work for you guys? it stopped for me completely before the last game so I played on the touch site for that, I find the touch site frustrating, I like the tap and quote feature so you don't have to quote the whole post if you're only responding to one or two lines

It has it's moments but normally is grand for me anyways. Can be offline a good bit longer than normal site if there's maintenance etc.

And yep, it's why I prefer the app as I can pick and choose what I reply to. Never open the app if you're a dead player though... have accidentally thanked a few posts in the past and you can't unthank on the app :pac::pac:

FYI, app went down for a bit because of maintenance before the last game.

Also, there are 2 unofficial apps - one is great, one not so much.

I can’t be doing with this responsive site. When you click the boards logo, I don’t wanna see a full screen saying “welcome back strawberry milkshake”. Just show me the threads!

Gonna try the app now.

24-01-2018 11:09AM

Which app tho?

Triceratops Ballet · 24-01-2018 11:17AM

I assume version 3.3?

24-01-2018 11:17AM

I can’t find the app in the store. I searched boards, boards.ie and now yer talkin

Looks like the iOS one was removed from the store. People who already have it can use it, but don't think it can be downloaded. Sorry sm

24-01-2018 11:30AM

Oh well. No wonder the numbers are falling.

24-01-2018 12:27PM

Looks like you’re stuck with me for the foreseeable. Touch site not being, errrm, touched!

maybe we could have the 'hey, a ww game is starting soon' thread unlocked so we can add when there is a ww game starting soon. ( live game signup has been open since 18th.)

Game mod has to pm sully to have it updated.

Necro · 24-01-2018 01:56PM

Oops

Yeah Necro what's the holdup?

it's in February

quickbeam · 29-01-2018 06:01PM

I'm less inclined to devote the time I should in to college work so I might just be up for the next game. Whether that's an incentive to kick off a poll or not, I'm not sure!!

But then again, my apathy towards college is tied with my general depression, so a game where being sensitive isn't good may not do me much good either so .... we'll see.

quickbeam · 29-01-2018 06:01PM

Who won the last game?

(As in, yesterday's live game?)

Mollyb60 · 29-01-2018 06:45PM

Strawberry was drunk and Ardinn was asleep so the wolf (duffman) won. Can't get the staff these days.

Heh... just looking back I've modded (with assistance mostly) 5 out of the last 7 games since September.
And going again in March. After that I'm retired for a while from modding.

Sure you are.

Digi and the lads taking the opposite promotional approach to Necro - waiting until we are all starving for a game.
