Gin and Canasta issues.
My friend and I could not find each other in gin or canasta if we had a private table so I spoke to EA and they had me run the trouble shooter. I did have a couple of things turned off that need to b...

I dont see how any of those settings would cause her to not be able to find me.
It is private and she still doesn't see me on.
It auto starts when she joins in gin. Game set up settings didn't mattee..

EA Staff (Retired)Hey there, @dcat14.
If it's auto-starting for her before she has a chance to find you, it sounds like she's not going to the Find a Table page but perhaps doing the Quick Play options instead. Looking at it the other way around, if she sets up a table, are you able to find her?
The questions I posed are a bit of a follow-up to a theory that some players have had that if they have different settings saved as their default to the other players wanting to join, that a table won't be visible to them. If you both have the same table settings, then that would invalidate that theory and help us look towards other reasons why you can't see each other.

We do not want quick play because some stranger joina before she can get there and they wont leave because it will harm their rating witch is a stupid feature by the way. So because someone dropped in and refused to leave I HAD TO LEAVE this losing my rating totally unfair. So WE WANT PRIVATE tables.
I go to set up a game and set the password and I wait for her to arrive. I do not start the game so I feel what you said about beginning the game making her not find me is inaccurate.
Thanks.

Oh, I apologize about the misunderstanding, @dcat14. I am not discouraging the use of Private Tables at all and I'm sorry if it came across that way.
I just want to compare saved settings, nothing more. If your saved settings are different from her saved settings, can you see each other? If both sets of saved settings are the same, can you see each other? I also wanted to see if there was any particular setting that was causing an issue on the backend, which would need resolved on our end if so.
What I meant for her side, is if she also sets up a game and password, if you can see hers okay, or if she selects quick play to get started. I just wanted to see if not seeing each other is the same case regardless of who hosts the table to start.

Ok I have no idea for sure what her settings are but probably the same as we have specific ways we play. Really don't see how RULES OR SETTINGS would have to do with seeing her online?
It says 1 friend on but when you go to find them there is no one there. My thought was maybe she was in stealth mode but she's not why would she do that when she was waiting on me?
I can tell you now that we played scrabble as well she finds me I don't find her. The game glitched on me and I had to stand and refresh and that kicked me from the table and so that made her the host and when I came back yup once again she was not findable.
Frustrated.
