While being bored at the airport and on the flight, I created a filter function to the game lists.

Most of them (exceptions being 'My ...' and the results of 'Lookup') now have a button at the top, showing the current filter. Pressing the button allows you to change the filter.

It defaults to 12h-48h phase length, as previously discussed.

I'll roll it out to beta any moment now.

Please tell me what you think :D

This seems like a really good feature, and will hopefully avoid so many confused new players who've joined 5 minute games.

I ran into a couple of bugs with it. The first isn't exactly a bug - you have to set a maximum if you're setting a minimum for ranges. It would be good to search for e.g. "reliability >= 1".
The second was intermittent, when trying to filter the "Finished games". Possibly this was because my narrow criteria meant it had to search through a lot of results?

Thanks for the new feature though - it will make variant analysis much easier.

Yeah, leaving fields empty should probably default to max range in each direction.

And yes - to spare some db indices the filters work by eliminating found results. Which means tight filters on Finished will cause high latency :(

Ok, empty fields are now interpreted as non-limiting.

Broken requests when filtering out very uncommon finished games is unfortunately still a problem.
