I didn't like them either when I saw first but now I find it useful.

-I have my games set to play online (PCC2), so instead of going to Play and pick the game, I enter my turn with one click. (*)
-I can change the submitted turn from temporary to definetly back and forward, that is great, before that if you changed your mind (example, received an email from another player) and you need to make many changes, and need time to do it, you needed to make a new trn load marking it as temporary to gain time. Now just one click.
-If you want to contact a rival, you can click his name and then go to the send mail option, but using the game page feature already tells the game number and the player race, so you can't (shouldn't) mistake if you play several games.

(*) If you use PCC2 from time to time to make a turn, or you plan to use it on your vacation when you can not access to your computer, echoview, etc, I suggest to enter in every turn so your map keeps updated to the moment you need ot use it.
If you own planet 344 and they take it, when you enter PCC2 it is an unknown planet but you already knew before the temperature and minerals, so entering the PCC2 once per turn loads the updated map to keep it fresh.
