Just change the design in the options, it is not that hard.

If I think I have the strong hand, partner gets the dog to support me.
If I think I have the weak hand, I keep dog.

Thats the most common mistake as people overvalue calls and undervalue points.

I sent two tickets to the support (one in June 2023, one a week ago) and never got a reply. I dont think I will ever get an answer from BGA.

→ Team play It is obviously unfair for games that play with teammates to have different ELO wins/losses within the same team. From now on, when playing games such as Belote, Decrypto, Tichu etc, you will not gain/lose ELO from the other players within your team. Is frequently partnering with the sa...

You can`t judge Phobolog or UNMI by their winrate. The problem is that without a way to terraform / without titanium cards in your opener you are forced to choose the other corp. A corporation that forces you to take the other one in about 80% of the hands is very, very terrible, even if your winrat...

every hand is unique, as is every stragtegy in trading cards. If my option is to potentially give a singleton to an opponent, and I am a long shot to T or support a partners T, I'll give to opponent.

Hi all,

about 6 months ago I sent a request to BGA and got the response that I will get an answer as soon they can. Is it impolite to ask again after 180 days about the ticket? What is the usual time the staff of BGA takes to answer?

Thanks for your help in advance.

The Mahjongg is a very powerful card, yet used the wrong way pretty often. The cases where you just go for a random number are way rarer than people believe. With many hands you want to call a specific card. Example: You have 1 22333 66QQQ K A DR. You want to call that hand and the only correct call...
