Board Game Arena

I actually discontinued my Premium membership over this issue.

Too frustrating to deal with this.

Can't believe no one mentioned it: Helena <-> Los Angeles.

Only route utilizing Helena, and I know if I'm taking that card, I'm likely to lose.

Toronto <-> Charleston a close second.

I have had multiple games where intentional blocking was done to me! Sometimes the opponent made NO attempt at their own tickets! While this is legal by the rules, I think it is poor sportsmanship. Unintentional blocking is okay; but to not attempt your own tickets at all(?)- poor. Totally legitima...

Surely the only skillful way to play is with blocking? Admittedly I'm completely new to the game, having never played it IRL and only on here for a couple of days, but without blocking it's just a game of luck pretty much, with the only strategy being taking routes early or saving cards. You're cor...

One solution : When a table is full, the table remains in the lobby (with all places marked as full). If EVERYONE in the table accepts, then the game is started, and the table is removed from the lobby.

I just don't know when the end of the cycle of having to down-thumb these people actually is. I still do it. And yet, there is a c...

I suppose I could be one of these people, I sometimes I click "play" without realizing the settings have changed from what they had been, or I forget/don't notice that I changed the main menu Arena/Play option between games. IME I've done it most often after finishing a tournament game; I...

If one doesn’t use the manual lobby, they get added to each available table that matches their settings. Most people don’t update their settings (and expansions might not be a customizable setting), so they’ll get placed at your table, but then realize it’s a mega game and don’t want to play. Would...

Is there some mechanism to prevent players from repeatedly joining your game and cancelling start? I mean, other than removing them from your player list by putting them in your settings not to play with them? It seems there are hundreds of these people out there, and I wonder how long it would take...
