I guess people just REALLY don't like World games though!
Some people just don't like penguin armies. ;-)

World dip requires a lot more players, and it takes a VERY long time to play out.

I thought that it could be the case that I couldn't see the game(s) because I had Joined already, but after a week with no one joining (and it was not that weird of a game) it seemed like something else was wrong. I guess people just REALLY don't like World games though!

Anyway, thanks for the help!

^^^^^ This.

If you go to Games / My Games, the new game you created should be there.

Once you have joined a new game, it doesn't shown under new games for you anymore, though others should be able to see it.

I just joined and exited an anonymous world game that might have been the game you are referencing. Does it appear to be working or did I get the wrong game?

Is that your friendly way of saying "I think that your games should be showing up and so the problem is likely a bug that you should bring to the attention of the moderators?" ?
I would suggest that it is impossible to tell based on what you are describing, without logging into your account and viewing it from your side. If you want help, the mod email is a good way of seeking help.

Did you scroll through the entire list of new games, all pages? Your new game won't be at the top of the list, because the games now display in descending pot size order.

I've tried a few times to "Create a New Game" and everything seems fine except that it doesn't show up under New Games and, even after many days, no-one joins (and it's not like it is something weird).

Any advice as to what I am doing wrong? For reference, the most recent try was a World game with no password.

Thank you.
