V3 app is a pile of dog doodoo. Its fancy but is riddled with bugs. I preferred v2 more. Simple, gets the job done and no (or not as many bugs). Cant comment on v3 website as i only use mobile
Of course it's riddled with bugs, it's still in development! That's why there's a bug report/capture feature. Don't complain about the bugs, report them ;)
Loving the new look too. Everything's a hell of a lot cleaner and credit where credit is due the bugs are getting fewer and further between.
My only, and admittedly very petty, gripe at the moment is the fact that custom tournament trophies no longer display as custom trophies, hardly anywhere. I mean, they were very limited in V2 but in V3 they're virtually non-existent. The only page I can find them displaying is via a players tournament page which you only really get access to if you're playing said person in a tournament. I'm Just not sure what the point of having the option of awarding custom trophies is if people are not able to see or display them.
See, I told you it was petty.
I love the new look. It's a leap out of the early 2000's into the present day with a cleaned up look, great scheme and feel to it. The "Menu on the left" thing is cool albeit gimmicky (matter of taste I suppose, I know newer websites are starting to go exclusively side-bar but it feels... misplaced somehow), the responsiveness is excellent, and I really like the new computer analysis that lets you watch as it goes.
Some suggestions:
• Show the strength of the computer analysis for the post-game analysis computer. I couldn't find anywhere where it said so, so I didn't know if I was receiving a strong or sub-par analysis
• Incorporate a "Light theme" for users who enjoy a light background instead of the dark gray it's at right now
• (Bug?) I'd like my notifications to stay ignored and not just show back up again when I refresh the page
• Don't center the text editor buttons, it's kind of tacky.
• Don't display the "Your post was successfully created" banner at the very top of the page covering the user menu. Put it just below the Breadcrumbs and above the thread title.
• Clicking on "edit" briefly displays the source html of the post before switching it to the WYSIWYG view. Super minor, but it made me think it might be nice to be able to actually switch posting formats. Have a "Source" format for writing the post in HTML (with some tag filtering and correction in place, ex. disallowing <script> and <?php ?> tags, attaching any missing closing tags), and a "Plain" format which is what we already have.
