Board Game Arena

11 rounds. Got the 7 arrow on the flop (Lightspeed Variant). Just after my 4th roll (roll 7, total), I bought the Sector 8 place-a-charge/move-a-charge card. Two rolls later, bought the You Win card. Three of my next seven rolls were 7s, and between that and the combination of other charges I had st...

Hat tip to the master level sarcasm. But you denied being condescending before, and this was much milder than that. So if you are acknowledging your previous condescension, I'll own the hypocrisy. I couldn't care less if you own it or not. The Earth didn't need people to acknowledge it rotated arou...

and how exactly would I, without someone telling me? The same way the first person who found it there did. I could swear someone bearing your resemblance said something about condescending tones not being appreciated. Apparently you should check the fine print, see if that applies to everyone, or e...

btw you can set it to always be on by clicking the hamburger menu at the top right of your screen during a game and enabling fast options

That's actually super-helpful, thanks! I didn't realize that selection choice was even there. (and how exactly would I, without someone telling me?)

Yeah...my apologies. Had I known that people would twist what I said into an excuse to be victims, I'd have just kept my keyboard shut.

Perhaps now someone will address the actual suggestion.

Did you see what you're actually paying for? https://boardgamearena.com/premium Actually, I did, thanks. On that page - the one you linked - it says the following: "Board Game Arena is dedicated to bringing the joy of board games to a global audience. To achieve this, we offer our core service...

You realize this is all done by volunteers, yeah? Interesting. I never saw that note on the bill I get every year to pay for this service. *yes, I realize this game is maintained by people who volunteer, but the real question is: do you realize that when people volunteer, they do so of their own fr...

...and on top of that, it amazes me that this game has been in play so long and we're still forced to select auto stuff EVERY game. As if programming and offering players a way to just set it as their default is some sort of Herculean effort that is beyond the pale of average mortals. I'm only at ab...

Some background... I joined BGA in March 2021 and then signed up for Premium in December 2022, and the latter, I did so specifically to play Space Base without limitations. For the first few months, I just played 'locally' with a friend of mine (1v1). We played ELO games, but that wasn't the focus, ...

On Move 84, you rolled an 8. Initially, you selected 8, then selected 9, and you gained 7VP. You reset your turn for some reason, activated a +1 cube (turning the 3+5 into 3+5+1 = 9), selected 9, selected 10, and you gained 7VP. It worked the way it was supposed to the first time. You can see it in ...
