Board Game Arena

Not sure why the link doesn't work any more but if you search for Habitats in the Bugs section it's called "Stop the player area resizing itself after each action"

My perspective is that if you offer a player the ability to zoom their game board then it's unfriendly to ignore the zoom level the player has chosen and reset it each turn. The game should respect the player's zoom preference (or don't offer it in the first place).

There's a suggestion to remain zoomed out here https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=213932 that you can vote for

I agree and created this suggestion: https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=210368

Please vote for it!

As others have said, find games which are satisfying when you do win from time to time, but that you can still enjoy while losing. I am terrible at Race for the Galaxy (419 games, 135 victories, ELO never over 200) but I enjoy playing it and it's fast paced so there isn't much sense of doom. You get...

Bugs & suggestions are a JOKE!

It depends on the developer - my suggestion on showing Grand Tours during scoring were addressed immediately by thoun so that's pretty unfair

I have created a suggestion (https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=192253) that the Mandalas are displayed during the game and when they are scored. Please vote if you agree!

Putting the India map in the same game as Switzerland is still annoying too - it would make more sense for each map to have its own distinct game so that it can have its own arena rather only having Switzerland or India every time.

But if you don't say gg you get bad rolls in the next game (unless you're a premium member), right?

Did you make this podcast specifically for me? It's so much nerdy fun and clearly you have a great time making it. Can't pick a favourite round/answer as there are so many, but I'm still thinking about the physics of a 900mph sneeze and working out my own Wriggle Room questions. All round brilliant ...
