What was the real use of that list, outside pure curiosity about stats ? I never really understood the use for it As we're preparing a new season of Allround League, I really miss the list. Any chances you're gonna reintroduce it? Apart from the amount of tables played that was shown, we could real...

I have good experience with Stracciatella, even though there are chocolate nibs in it.

Well, there is a difference between playing badly and throwing the game. Throwing the game in a team game should not be allowed. Problem is that humans are often bad at distinguishing between the two and, from experience, the most vocal players are often the least apt to actually make the distincti...

You can use the Popular filter on the game list, it's the same result : https://boardgamearena.com/gamelist?isPopular= No, unfortunately it's not the same result. What I am missing is: 1. see how many tables are actually played and a feeling of whether it's more turn-based or real-time 2. see how m...

See here: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=172230 It's not enough because it still makes the winners reluctant to accept a rematch which is bad for making friends. If your po...

But I would support a temp ban for reaching 0 karma. You don't get there with intermittent internet connection issues. You pretty much have to *try* to get your karma that low, and why would we want anyone like that in the player pool? You can get there by unexpected crises in your life that sudden...

Don't forget the duplicate reports, which were not included in that total, though the number of those were unstated. You have no basis for assuming this and stating it as fact. No basis for what? Your comment makes no sense. I also read Xate's message as the dublicates being a part of the 33, not o...

What makes you think it's a bot? Was the thinking time strange or did they just play well and possibly used a strategy you didn't know yet?

High level Splendor is indeed a bit weird and not exactly what you would expect intuitively...
