Re: Overall Decline in Quality

Addressing the years-long overall site suggestions with hundreds or thousands of upvotes would be a good place to start. That, and better server stability. Based on my experiences on BGA, it would appear that the game state database, the information that allows BGA to recreate a game turn by turn, ...

Overall Decline in Quality

As someone who loves BGA and only ever says glowing things about BGA, I am left with an uneasy feeling about what feels like an overall decline in quality. Over the past many month I have watched what was once a great gaming site decline into a pool of unorganized implementations. First a little bit...

Great Interface

Just wanted to tell the designers how much I appreciate the Hardback interface. The amount of thought put into its layout and functionality shows in its self explanatory simplicity. The complex options, which could become unwieldy if implemented incorrectly, are easily understood and just as easily ...

Re: Love Letter: Deliver Your Heart (Carefully Folded)

In short, this site used to have Love Letter (2012) and now it has Love Letter (2019) , a different enough game that BGG has a separate entry for it. BGA doesn’t have a lot of control over the sorts of implementation details you are upset about, sadly. True. And more specifically, the expanded vers...

Re: Love Letter: Deliver Your Heart (Carefully Folded)

The Assassin, Cardinal, Jester, etc. are all gone. I'm not sure why. The opportunity to score 3 hearts on a turn is gone. I loved the 5 player expansion. This one falls short. Sorry new publisher, why not get rid of the Prince while you're at it? Boring.

Re: Is this game dying?

It sounds like experienced players restricting their match settings so they're not being paired with new players would help quite a bit. That's a terrific idea. When playing a game where skill level drastically affects the game or the speed of gameplay, I always restrict access to Average and one o...

Re: BGA Rick Roll

What about "loaded"! How can you offer all these other types of dice and not offer loaded! This is obviously a money grab! If loaded dice are not an option I don't know if I can keep playing here. :oops:

Everybody got me this morning. I was hook, line, and sinker until Chaotic Dice.

Re: Hey, That’s My Fish! Fish are Food, Not Friends!

This simple little game causes me more angst and AP than any other game. I love it and fear it. An isolated penguin can crush the spirit. My Penguins! My Penguins!

Eternally Changing Table Setup

Why do my table setup preferences (i.e. number of players, expansion, etc.) remain the same for a while, then suddenly and unexpectedly revert back to the basic settings? For example, I create a new table, see that the player count is correct, then open the table and it fills, but unlike last time I...

Did I Play Hansa Teutonica on BGA?

I remember playing Hansa Teutonica online. It either happened here or on Yucata. HT is not offered on Yucata so that leaves BGA. Was it a temporary thing or am I completely misremembering?

Thanks.
