Re: BGA implementation does not do Revolutionary correctly

So if a Void 3 (or a Soldier-Void 4) goes against the Revolutionary and loses, that wizard will still be the "top" of the discard and affect the next played wizard - even though visually (and rules-wise) a different card (the one discarded by the Revolutionary) is on top of those cards No...

Re: Is there a way to get technical support to fix the state I'm in on a particular page?

Actually it turns out that some things on the page have started working, but some only partially, and others not at all. For example, if I try to change the "5th ingredient" option, it now reacts and appears to let me select 1 or 2 professors (whereas previously it didn't react at all). Bu...

Re: Is there a way to get technical support to fix the state I'm in on a particular page?

I'm confused by this. Probably because what you described is how the system is supposed to work, whereas my problem was that it wasn't working properly. I've now escaped from the situation. This seemed to occur as a result of my trying to change the table restrictions setting (the one that yets you...

Re: Is there a way to get technical support to fix the state I'm in on a particular page?

Thanks, I had tried that, and it looks as if it works to some extent - i.e. it sits waiting for a premium player to come along and play with me. I suppose that might happen at some point, but (f I can believe what the gamepanel now says), it is looking for a game with options that are nothing like w...

Is there a way to get technical support to fix the state I'm in on a particular page?

I tried the "Contact Us/Support" page, and the only relevant option ("Technical Issue") led me to a page for reporting a bug. OK, so I've done that ( https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=170953 ) in the hope that it will be possible to stop the same thing happening to other people, ...

Re: Can't finish my turn with green marbles in my ingredient pool

Am I missing a rule somewhere? I guess the developer took the view that the statement in the rules "this arcane vegetal substance can be used in place of any other Ingredient" was supposed to include using them in place of matching ingredients at the end of your turn. I agree it's not obv...

Re: Karma System is Regularly Abused by Habitual Quitters

Overall, I think BGA’s karma system is currently too lenient in multiple ways. I was wondering whether the system could just make it harder for frequent offenders to recover karma. Looking at profile pages it seems that BGA retains detailed reputation data for 60 days. If within that time someone's...

Re: Tips to make tournaments more attractive

Do you have any suggestion to give me? How to sporsorise my tournament? Having looked at what I suppose is the tournament that you referred to ( https://boardgamearena.com/tournament?id=284849 ), I see that it was a turn-based one but you only allocated 24 hours to each player. If the time-zones wo...
