Re: Turn-based Filter - Time Zones

I was glad to find this as I was about to post about it. Ultimately there is no real penalty to going over the play timer. Kicking someone in the middle of a game changes the game usually for the worse, so one's best recourse is to just accept a slower game. I started a fast Ark Nova game with 12 pl...

Re: Why can't everyone have their preferred color?

Well, I don’t know where that came from. No part of my comment was attempting to say you know less than me, gatekeep, or criticize any part of your communication style. To have a constructive conversation, This is specifically implying I don't know what a simple concept like "edge case" i...

Re: Why can't everyone have their preferred color?

I've been a professional programmer for over 20 years fwiw ;) This should not be hard in a reasonable code base. If you’ve been a developer that long you should recognize what I mean when I say “edge case”. (Or is that something only 25+ year engineers know? ;) ) It’s true that I can see a way for ...

Re: Why can't everyone have their preferred color?

I'm not a professional developer, but I have some programming experience and knowledge. I don't see why this would be difficult at all; seems to me it could be accomplished with a few simple if/else blocks. See, that's the difference between a hobby programmer and someone who really has to maintain...

Re: Why can't everyone have their preferred color?

UX design which should come before engineering prioritization Well, UX design and engineering go hand in hand. For each UX design feature you want, someone has to engineer it. With the question "Why can't?", you make it sound so absolute - as if it is clear that someone decided that it ca...

Re: Why can't everyone have their preferred color?

I already made a longer take on why certain things are not implemented here: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=244028#p244028 "Why" is a weird way to ask for this. Because the answer is trivial, it is "priorities" most of the times. You have a fair point but there...

Why can't everyone have their preferred color?

If two players have green as their preferred color, why can't they both have that on their own displays? The point of BGA is that you're in separate spaces and therefore not looking at the same physical components. It seems like if all players want to be green, they should be able to see that on the...

I would like the option to implement the Italian version of Tichu into this game.

Go here to look at the art: https://www.uplayedizioni.com/en/tichu/
It would be a great option

The site says you're penalized though. This is Viticulture Solo Game result cancelled (Someone left this game before the end) : The player who left (or was skipped) lost the game and got a ☯ penalty. The other players won this game and get 12% of normal ELO points (because 12% of this game was playe...
