I've only just started playing Harmonies and ran into a related problem immediately (so I have started a new forum topic on the wider question of all the colours). I am somewhat colour deficient (not to a great extent, but it is sometimes noticeable in everyday life) and I struggle to make out red &...

I have mild colour deficiency (like ~10% of the male population and ~1% of the female population, to varying degrees) and sometimes also struggle with poor contrast text & graphics in low light conditions (like many older people). The most important feature of the cards in Harmonies is the image...

Why do we "need" ELO? That's the wrong question ... why do we "want" ELO is a better question. You don't need chocolate and other nice treats, but you may want them and object if someone takes away that option. Most of the games on BGA are somewhat competitive. When a group of fr...

What I don’t understand is why you defenders of this change are so hung up on the ELO point that only some players have mentioned, when there are SO many other concerns raised by people in this thread.

Something that may be adding to the distress and concerns here: The idea that 4 days is a vacation comes across as absurd to people from many societies, including a lot of Western Europe. 4 days is a long weekend or brief city-break, it isn't a vacation. A vacation will be 2, 3 or even 4 weeks of co...

As a side note, I understand people's desire to play with friends with a specific time limit or no limit at all, and a desire to have some kind of ranking. What is important to keep in mind - this ranking is private-group-of-friends-ELO, it only shows who is stronger in this particular group and ha...
