You are right. I hadn't understood much about how the clock works in different situations. I now wonder if it may be a communication issue. I read the FAQ when I signed on (not all but I thought the parts about the clock) and I didn't absorb that things were as you described. Maybe it was communicat...

You seem to have just ignored that part written above. I didn't ignore that part. I was minding this response. Right, but with the right (or wrong) alignment, if everyone else plays instantly, you might be required to make 8 moves per day. Expect 8 total moves per day, but be ready to make 8 moves ...

You may be misunderstanding what 8 moves per day means. It doesn't mean YOU have to make 8 moves per day. It means the TABLE collectively makes 8 moves per day, assuming everyone uses the maximum increment on the clock. So at a 4-player table you'd only be expected to make 2 moves per day on averag...

Right, but with the right (or wrong) alignment, if everyone else plays instantly, you might be required to make 8 moves per day. Expect 8 total moves per day, but be ready to make 8 moves yourself per day. Right. Exactly what I don't want. As I said, I check in several times a day. Usually, after w...

Can you explain what you mean by "little or no clock pressure"? You don't get dinged or expelled. The current model is punitive. The pressure is a game ending inconclusively because some impatient person pulled your ripcord. I don't mind my cadence rating suffering momentarily (from sickn...

Yes, but 8 moves a day is a breakneck pace. While not real time, I don't want to commit to that many daily moves for any one game. Since the site already has a feature where you can set the window, I guess I'm suggesting: allow me access to slower paces (e.g. 3 moves a day) in that window. This allo...

I have noticed something odd about turn-based play. On another site I use, there is little or no clock pressure, yet games often move faster. On Board Game Arena, players sometimes seem to use as much of the clock as they can. My own way of thinking about async games is different. When I join one, I...

I was coming here to request the same. The replay option is annoying. Sometimes you want to study a position and see what you might've done but you can't because the timer takes you for a ride. Please provide an option to turn the timer off and have a person step forwards/backwards at his own pace. ...

Thank you. I goofed and misunderstood.

Could someone help me out. I just moved up on the blue temple track and landed on the temple bonus spot that says you score 9 per worker in the 4-5 range. I anticipated a big scoring since all 3 of my dice are in that range, but got nothing. https://boardgamearena.com/3/teotihuacan?table=327491061 A...
