Re: Community consensus / unwritten rules about blocking?

What brought me here to make my post above was that I had just played an A rena game against a player with a much higher rating who became very upset when I played a move that blocked him. He said that playing like that was a red flag and he was going to block me on BGA so that he would never have t...

Re: Community consensus / unwritten rules about blocking?

What is different about this particular game that causes some people to think that it is unfair, and possibly even cheating, to make a move to block an opponent's progress? There are dozens, probably hundreds, of games where making a move to block your opponent's effort toward reaching a goal is con...

Re: Results upon deck depletion

The developer has informed me that if both players have the same number of cards in their hand when the deck is depleted, the result will be a draw. I'll update the rules summary to reflect this.

Rain Cards in Arena

For future Arena seasons could the Rain Cards option be turned off? It seems like the majority of the arena games I've played, it comes down to whoever is lucky enough to draw the most rain cards wins. It kind of defeats the purpose of playing the rest of the game.

Re: Show Realtime Game Speeds in Settings

I mean on the Play Now screen when I set the configuration for automatic. When I am playing a new game that might require some extra thinking time, it would help to know how much time would be allowed before I create a realtime table and discover too late that there might not be enough time allowed ...

Show Realtime Game Speeds in Settings

It appears that the realtime game speeds vary for each game, which is good. In settings the options are fast, normal, and slow. However, there is no way to tell until the game begins how much time is allowed for the selected speed for that particular game. I find that "normal" allows plent...
