Am I the only one who loathes the way TD events are displayed in the Gen Con's new Event Finder ?

I'm grateful they still have the classic interface !
Have you looked it up in the TDb ?

No you are not. When it takes me 4 times to find the Battletech Grinder events which I know are on the schedule.

Its terrible.

You try to get them to play the game, but all they want to do is play the rules. - Ardak Kumerian

I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend - Faramir

Oh thank you Druegar -- Classic Interface!

I would like the new one, if the search actually worked properly which is clearly doesn't.

Thanks Druegar, was trying to view on mobile and the new way is painful. I usually switch to desktop view (chrome/android) and didn't help/irritated when I saw I was stuck on the 'new' interface...
We're all the kind of people who enjoy the game on a "meta" level. We like talking about the game year-round. We buy tokens. We enjoy crafting. We get together during the off-season if we can. We are a very skewed demographic that way. -Raven

I agree. The new way it doesn't work the best. Thank you for the Classic link interface.

Thanks for the classic link. I hope Jeff can get them to fix the new link, so people using the new link can find runs when searching for True Dungeon, or Jeff may lose a lot of sales.

I feel like I'm being disingenuous here. Gen Con posted the link to the classic interface in the second paragraph of their May 6 newsletter . I didn't "uncover" anything secret.

That said, I'm glad y'all find it useful and that I'm not the only one disappointed by the new and not improved events interface.

While I was totally fine with the classic interface, am I the only one who doesn't have a problem with the new one?

I actually find it easier for TD. I select Game/Category. Select True Dungeon Adventures and then sort by Start Time. From here I can very easily get to the timeframe I'm considering. I'm assuming once registration starts that I'll have the option of filtering out sold out runs. I'm just not having a problem with this.

Even though it wasn't secret, thanks for noticing it in the newsletter and posting it. I wouldn't have found it otherwise. My wish list is now full, all but one item are True Dungeon runs. :)
