Why is quitting penalised with bad karma, but conceding at this point is fine. What is the difference between quitting and conceding a two player game anyway? Because conceding is acknowledging that they've lost, and is willing to accept that any come-from-behind victory on their part is unlikely e...

I'm getting sick of sore losers resigning games early. I'll get really lucky and manage to roll 3 or 4 yahtzee's early in the game. I get excited that I could potentially be on to break my high score, only for the other player to pull out because I've "already won" or "they want to s...

I hate when people concede once the last turn is announced, it would take 5 seconds to pick a route to claim and let the game finish and be scored. I wish that if people do this the game would reveal what their routes were and score the game rather than having to sit through a game replay to find ou...

Just for fun! My favorite is LA to Chicago (16 points) because I have family living in those cities. Plus it has a weighty point count and you can get to it through Helena or Omaha plus Phoenix or Oklahoma City or even Santa Fe. I also like Denver to El Paso (4 points), Duluth to El Paso (10 points...

Now that TTRAamerica and TTREurope both exist, they could set one to 2 player and one to four player, and then alternate which is which each month. Then people who want to play multiplayer can be accommodated without being a problem for people who want two players.

yeah, being on diamond and trying to get to elite, then playing someone on Bronze, means a win is zero, and a loss is -4. so harsh.

it's not that hard to check longest route length, easiest way I find is to count the train cars not in the longest route, since that number is generally less than 10 for the leader

I was just looking over the "all players" stats and noticed: Longest Continuous Path bonus 0.46 That is: players average getting longest path 46% of the time. I know ties are possible, so multiple longest paths can be awarded in a single game, but even considering that happens from time t...
