Lack of Games showing in Lobby

[Combeboy]

Hey,

Don't know if anyone else has this issue, had a quick scan through the Bugs section and didn't see any posts showing issues similar to this one. Didn't even know I had this issue until speaking with a friend and something just didn't fit quite right.

Whenever I am in the lobby I am never showing more than 2 pages of games, (available and ongoing games.) However my friend usually shows between 3 and 8 pages of games. As I said, I never even realised this until the number if games showing just happened to come up in conversation.
I have checked, rechecked, reset and re-reset the filters so that isn't the issue, refreshed the lists and the whole browser page innumerable times and still no change. I know games are missing from my lists due to knowing a friend has a game on the go at the time, yet being unable to locate it.

Just thought I would bring this up to see if anyone else has this issue, and possibly even bring it to the attention of people who have this issue and like me had no idea as its quite hard to spot unless stuck right under your nose for scrutiny.

Ta,
Lewis,

some people play games with minimum level, if you are still low level that might be it.

[Combeboy]

I am level 27, highest minimum level setting is 20.
Good thought though thanks.

Well I was wrong then Just had to make sure, I haven't met you in game that I remember (sorry if I should). Have you checked your filter? You might have it set not to see certain games? It's up in top buttons above games list.

[Combeboy]

No worries, I can't remember you either if we have played so we are even.
Already checked and rechecked, reset and re-reset the filters loads.
So no idea what is going on. Game doesn't like me very much.

There are 3-8 pages of games!?

Looks like this isn't an isolated problem.

[Autumnwolf17]

Wow, on that case the most I've ever seen on my game's four. Maybe your friend is pulling your leg?

[Combeboy]

Nope, as I said I know games are missing due to knowing the names of games currently in progress yet them not appearing on the list of games.
The most I ever get is 2 pages of games showing and the second page is hardly ever more than half full.

2 screenshots taken at the same time by 2 different players in the same lobby. One showing roughly twice as many ongoing games as the other.

Well I have about the same number like that every day. If this is truly a bug and I'm not overlooking something obvious, this is a very serious and widespread bug. I haven't seen three or more in the last months and I doubt that they were created at the moment I left. Lopdo should be back soon and hopefully techgump will read this before then. Hopefully I am wrong I see no problem that will make it hard to play, I assume it still shows some maps, just something that the mods should hear about.

One last thing though, just shooting at the wind now, but do you happen to have say, a five-page banlist?
