Missing variants

So since they changed the variants homepage, I couldn't see War for throne in the category lists, had to search the title in searchbar - was fine. Today search bar no longer brings up War for Throne, so to start lobby I had to go into archive and click 'play' on an old game. I search Chaturaji and see nothing also, what have they done with my variants? sad.png

Exactly the same happened to me some weeks ago. I had no more games, etc. and had to ask to the community; probably pushed this button inadvertently.

The current layout is a mess, is not at all user-friendly, and must be changed.

Thank you for your feedback, guys. If you have any idea how exactly to change the UI, please describe.

> apparently I had some 2 player dice clicked

Misclicks happen. There are 2 standard solutions:

1. Ask you: "Are you sure?" every time you click a button. Obviously annoying.

2. Every time you close a browser tab an reopen it, reset/forget what you clicked and show you both buttons. This is how Microsoft Word/Excel and similar applications reset their toolbars. 4PC/2PC buttons in Variants is kind of a toolbar. Not the best solution for those who mostly prefer either 2PC or 4PC. Also many players never close their browsers/tabs.

Feel free to suggest improvements. We are open to ideas and improvements. How do you see/imagine a user friendly layout? Please keep in mind, that there are ~100 listed variants at the moment.
