https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=824282332 Guy recognises he's lost and just stops playing. Quits by making us wait 5 mins for a time out. The very next turn, I win the game - which he knows is going to happen, that's why he quits. Remaining players get 87% points. lol How is this allowed to h...

They justify it with a quote from the game creator saying you can literally make holidays up. Sportsmanship is irrelevant, they say. Write to the publisher and plead your case that they should tell BGA to do what you want. Or buy the rights to the game, then you can force BGA to do whatever you wan...

Brain
Target: Brain and no TV

That exact thing has happened to me. First turn, Play All, Brain, Brain + No TV goal. Goodnight.

Also, some people will just say it is a holiday and if asked what holiday it is, they look up "what holiday is today?" because there's always a few holidays. 😔 Which is in the spirit of the rules (mostl)y. Though it's good etiquette to have one beforehand You always say this but it's demo...

Just adding my vote for this! its such bad sport to have a player use the birthday card. They justify it with a quote from the game creator saying you can literally make holidays up. Sportsmanship is irrelevant, they say. Totally overlooking the fact that, although the game was originally a kids/fa...

It's 5.0

I was introduced to the game with version 3.0, more than 20 years ago. I'd never seen this deck before either. Took a little bit of adjusting.

I play for all of that. I do enjoy playing for the sake of playing, but there's very little point in doing so long-term if you're having your legs cut out. I'll just play offline instead.

Thanks for the explanation. That seems nuts in a game which such a small player pool. It's really disincentivising. No point even playing if you're literally guaranteed to lose points and can never win.

I'll be the first to admit I don't have a clue how the ELO points calculation works, but how can you get 0 points for a win?

My rating was 368 and theirs was 262. Surely that's got to be worth something, even if it's only 1 or 2?

I didn't swear.
