If, in advanced view, on the project tab I hit the "Your Results" button, then the list I get returned is in the order of latest work unit handed out on top - oldest work unit at the bottom.

Practically all of the time I'm however interested in the results that have been turned in recently and see the pending or assigned credits (and I think most people would be). Since I have a few hundred work unit in my list I now have to scroll through the pages using the "next 20" button many times.

So I suggest returning the results list in the reversed order.

(Maybe someone already suggested this but I could not find it anywhere. If so then count this as another vote for that suggestion :-)

One workaround for long task lists—if you know how many entries there are, approximately at least—is to hit the “Next 20” button just once, then manually edit the “offset” value in the browser’s URL field to a number that will take you to (or near) the last page.

I agree that other sorting options would be nice to have, but they might put excessive load on the servers that manage the working database. Most of the project’s “back end” functions are already straining their systems’ capacity.

Just make sure you use multiples of 20.
