Game not loading?

I have tried from three different devices in the last 36 hours and it won’t finish loading. I cleared caches, etc., to no avail. In a further twist, the bug report from this forum can’t be accessed. Does anyone have any ideas how to notify the right people?

Scoring?

The printed rules indicate that scoring is done via stars. And i see that the game will calculate the stars for you, which is great. Why does it then turn it into a smaller score? I scored 19 on a game and the result became 4.

Re: "Turn-based" games

A quick Google search suggests that this term is a portmanteau taken from the video game world:

Solo Mode Disabled?

I've tried to start a game twice now. It starts the countdown. Then no game?

Team-based tournaments?

Is it possible to create a tournament where players sign onto one of two teams or factions, and then you have matches set up between members of the teams using either Swiss or elimination methods? Thanks either way. I searched 10 pages of this forum, the FAQ, the Tournament FAQ and the site. I could...

Re: Forced income turns?

I just finished a game where income was automatically triggered for me, but going around the table heading into that turn I gathered 2 coin, which would have been enough to let me get to AI Singularity and keep going. I was most definitely not out of time. Why would this happen? Game number is 29975...

Re: Wingspan in alpha test ?

Was the turn-based option removed from the Alpha version for some reason? I played a turn based game, but when I went to set up a new table the option always turns into real time.

Re: Difficult to press BGA buttons on iOS

I've experienced this problem. Turning the iPad or phone so you're looking at landscape view instead of portrait view often - but not always - improves the click to let the play register with the game.

Re: idea: average thinking time metric

I think the concept has merit. The one issue with attempting to measure an average thinking time per player is for people who get interrupted while logged in. You will not measure the actual thinking time. You’ll be measuring thinking time plus however long they are away from the interface. I realiz...

Re: Is table chat a thing?

Anyway, there's a group I found called Talkative and friendly games. It's a public group for players who like to talk during games. I think there's a better chance you'll find interactive people here. Hope this helps :) https://boardgamearena.com/group?id=1088438 That's cool! Thanks. I joined with ...
