Re: iPhone Zoom and Tap problems

- Some games - especially Puerto Rico - will fail to register taps. You can end up having to spam tap and hoping that one of them will work. This happens on both Safari and my browser of choice: Vivaldi. Surely this infuriates more people than just me? I have had this issue a very long time in game...

Re: basket chair separates newborn from mother

Would it really be that overpowered? Of course, if you had two empty rooms, you could grow twice the same round which would be very strong, but how often do you have that? With only one empty room, it would open up the growth queue for your opponents. I'm sure I'm missing other scenarios. If Basket...

But where is this ruling? The referenced ruling in this thread, and in the unofficial compendium is the opposite of what the BGA ruling says.

Re: Weak Cards Banlist Discussion!

It's now been a little while since I finished implementing the last cards. I think there are two cards worthy of consideration for the weak banlist. Sweep: "Each time before you use the action space above the most recent round 1-14 action space, you get 2 clay." I have never seen this eve...

Re: PlayAgricolaOnline UI(Chrome extention)

Yes!!! I was a strong opponent of the flipped board when Agricola came to BGA. Back then I looked at coding this myself but never finished it. I think the original layout (and Play Agricola) fits screens better. One problem is that BGA has dug their hole deeper, rewriting cards to fit the BGA layout...

Re: Ban Beer Table (MI)

But I also think we should trust the stats alex linked to, so unfortunately a ban can't be justified.

Re: Weak Cards Banlist Discussion!

I propose to add acquirer to banlist. Food is tight enough early that it's hard to justify using it. Cooking hearth technically turns a 2f profit on cows, but is slow and requires investment and then doesn't work once you grow. Late, the price becomes so expensive almost nothing is worth it. Sure, ...
