    I am a man.
    I can change,
    If I have to...
    I guess

    Amen

    Click on the flag up there

    EDIT: Oh alright, to be slightly more helpful than that:

    Home » Games » 4 man » Player     XXX

    That's the navigation bar below the WG logo in the top left. Right now mine says Home >> Forum List >> Support Area >> View Thread >> Edit Post. I think you get the idea.

    When you're viewing a game, there's a flag icon where I put 'XXX' above. Click that. After that I have no idea what happens because this is a feature I don't use, but that's the answer to how to flag a game.

    It's a trap!

    yeah the something or rather (can't remember what tom called it - dashboard?) is it between the word 'player' and the refresh/reload icon? In work mode there isn't a flag icon. Will switch over to normal mode to look at that.

    EDIT: Nope I don't see a flag icon in either mode.

    Tom: this could be an issue with IE8?

    Give a man fire and he's warm for a day... but set him on fire and he's warm for the rest of his life.

    Ooooh, is THAT what that icon is? I sort of assumed it had something to do with surrendering (the whole white flag thing). What does it mean for a game to be flagged?

    No clue, I've never used it either.

    Well, I flagged the game asm linked but can't seem to find any indication that it did anything. Hmmm.

    My Games tab, you have a View "Flagged" option. IE Your "Favorites" for Games.

    It's not a trap!

    Using Chrome, I flagged a game but can't find it..

    From the Home screen I see "My Games", "Join Games", and "Create Game", but not "Games"

    If I click on "My Games", in the upper left under the Logo I see

    Home » Games » My Games  

    So somehow it skipped a layer.  From there, if I click on »  Games » to go "back" a layer, the page seems to refresh -- that's it -- not a flag in sight.  Going back to the game -- the flag is "on".

    Right above your games list you should have your View filter, Flagged should be in there.

    So you found your game in that list now right?

    Why would someone use this?

    I hate to burst your bubble, but....no, wait, I actually quite enjoy it. Nevermind

    It's so you can keep an eye on games that you're interested in but not playing in, or maybe you had an awesome victory and want to keep a record of it for the next time someone asks 'what was the best game you ever played'. Or maybe you're a designer and you want to watch how a bunch of games play out.

    Aye, I think it's quite cool, and remember wishing WF had something similar.

    Ah, I see now. That is a cool idea, I'll keep it in mind.
