Clarify the no active games message more #38

Closed SheepTester closed 4 years ago

The home page for those who joined the game is pretty boring and unintuitive. Currently it says,

You aren't in any ongoing games (in which you're still alive).

Someone was confused on how to set their elimination sequences. I think the best approach here is a context-based message.

If the user is in a game that is awaiting players, it could say,

When the game starts, you'll see your target and code here.

If the user is not in a game that is awaiting players, but is in a game that is ongoing but is eliminated, it could say,

You were eliminated! You can spectate by clicking on the game below.

If the user is only in ended games, it could say,

You aren't in any ongoing games. See the final results by clicking on the game below.

If the user is not in any games, it could say,

To join a game, follow the link to the game page and click the Join button.
