When I go to open seeks it only shows one game.  I tried playing 3 days ago and the other player either just didn't want to play or the site wasn't working?  Do you only see all the open seeks if you are a paid member?  I'm not eager to pay until I know everything is working.  Can someone respond to tell me whats up.  thanks!

No, all members including basic members should see all the open seeks. It is possible that there was only one open game seek at the time you were looking for a game.
