I played exclusively on mobile over the weekend.
Our FS had a good time participating in this last FA (January 2020). On the weekend, we were in the Pit and many players were active at the same time during the entire weekend. Aside from the overnight slow down, this lasted right up to the very end. We thought we were done with one Blacksmith badge lacking when we were graced with one final Blacksmith badge that set off a mad scramble to complete 2 more rounds and ended with us lacking 3 Blacksmith badges.
Having a notification on the main city screen that the Pit has sucked in a finished round and a new round was available would have added to the enjoyment. Imagine having players otherwise occupied in the city, or chat, as was the case with us and then the Endless Pit icon alerts them that a new round is available. You would have a rush of available players to fill in the round. And then back to the city. This would recognize and reward teamwork. And also reduce the drudgery of hitting the refresh button or continuously going in and out of the Pit.
The exclamation mark that appears when a quest is complete would be sufficient. An audible (optional) notification would be even better.
This frees up the chat area so that it doesn't have to be kept empty, which some FS may do, so that notifications of "next pit" are seen by all. It enhances the likelihood of more interesting communication in chat.
