We always had a button to show and hide alpha servers but some users couldn't see it. I changed the code so all premium users can see the button on the portal page. I've heard scattered reports that alpha servers don't always show up and I'm hoping that this button resolves the issue. Please post here if alpha servers are incorrectly hidden for you and the toggle button isn't working.

It looks to be? I thought we didn't support that site anymore though. Maybe I heard wrong.

I'm not sure that I see the toggle either - should it be under Game Profile -> Options?

I use m.earthempires.com quite frequently too - it's the mobile redirected version when you log in (and there are options in the menu I mentioned above to make it easier, like drop downs for navigating etc) - and it works well.

I don't have that for either mobile or desktop: just the captcha timing (centered) and nothing to the right of it.

I think I see the issue why it isn't showing up on desktop and will fix it later today. There's a bunch of "hidden-phone" stuff that I don't understand so I don't know if it should show up on mobile.

I can never find game information for each server round while I am on my phone. Only my PC.
Which means PC master race rules.

I think a ton of people play mobile. If any tweaks can be made to make it better too

The toggle button should appear now. Are you able to see it?

Thanks for checking. I think that Pang created it originally but it only showed up for users who had access to Alpha servers before we had Premium.
