Suppose you know a specific member played in a large tournament with many sections. For example, say this member played in the Grade Nationals in Spokane. I can look up their name and click on National K-12 Grade Championships under their tournament list. But I don’t know what section they entered and they are not in the top section (12th grade). How should I find the mystery player without opening several different sections and hunting for the name?
On MSA, the tournament history showed the player’s section. I only needed to hunt in one specific section. Moreover, MSA had a useful option to Show ALL Sections, which I could search using CTRL-F.
Is there a trick on MUIR that I am not aware of?
I realize MUIR is a work in progress likely to take many months (years?) to become fully functional. Alas, the real pains are already visible. I miss the archaic MSA.
For a large tournament, there may not be an ‘all sections’ button, apparently this is a problem with the web engine bogging down. (Web pages weren’t really designed to be thousands of lines long.)
But the ‘more’ list does show the section, and clicking on the event takes you to that section.
The way MSA displayed crosstables did not rely heavily on CSS, the way MUIR does them uses a lot of CSS.
I like the more precise control you get with CSS but I think some web engines and browsers bog down on really large pages with heavy CSS usage, plus it uses more network bandwidth, and some kind of pagination helps deal with both issues.
But as several people have noted, the more display does link to the section. (I’m not sure it did that at the November 1st rollout of MUIR.)
