Detailed description
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
Lower the number of players to "1" to select a solo game mode.• Please explain what you wanted to do, what you did and what happened
When I try to create a solo (1 player) game, the drop-down for number of players is Solo, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
I think the code for starting a game is looking for the number of players to be '1', not 'Solo', so I can't start a game.• Which browser are you using?

Refreshing doesn't help.
The problem occurs every time and is easily reproducible.
When starting solo mode by the new lobby for other games (I tried it for "It's a wonderful world"), it automatically switches to training mode, so no error message is needed.
This automatic switch to training mode seems not to work for solo games of Reflection in the new lobby. Instead I get the error message: "Lower the number of players to "1" to select a solo game mode", which isn't really helpful when I have already set the player number to "solo" ("1" is not available). Astonishingly, this text is part not of the main page but of the game Reflection itself. So this seems to be a bug especially in Reflection.
ChrisUK, here a workaround for you: First set the game speed to training mode (leftmost position), then choose player number as "solo" and you can start your game. Or use the old lobby ("Play now") instead.
