Instead of just 20 or so alerts. 
For a while - that Alerts button - especially in Live Chess -
was showing the total number.  Like "91" - or 140 or whatever.
In my case - they're mostly Tactics notifies.
Its nice to have that number so that one knows when the end of the Alerts is near.
Or not.  happy.png

Mine does appear to show the total number of alerts. Can you give me an example screenshot?

Hi JD!
Okay - coming right up.
It'll show 20.  But there's much more.  Tactics alerts.
It'll only show more if they're from Clubs or forums.
Anyway - here goes.

Do you see the red "20" at the top left?
You might have to magnify it with Ctrl + mousewheel.

I don't think there's any way for me to draw in an arrow there. 
Unless I go to the "Paint" program.
Which is one of many things I try to avoid.  happy.png

Hey guys wanted to provide an update on this.  With V2 now dead we are working through many improvements into the notifications.  Since you guys are in beta you are seeing the latest and greatest nav and also the work that is being done.  Temporarily if you have > 20 notification you are going to see a 20+ as your alert count.  This is only temporary while we work through some technical challenges to giving you an accurate alert count total.  It should be coming back here relatively soon.

I saw this too and was going to report it. Glad to hear you'll be changing it back.

Yes - I saw that 20+ too.
The "+"  disappeared after I clicked on some of the forum posts.
