Rules Clarification

Why is the final round of a game worth double (at least in a two-player game)? Someone can be in the lead for the entire game and lose the whole thing with one bad hand at the end?

Re: Another complaint about ELO

The rating system on here is wildly flawed and completely inconsistent with the way it adds and subtracts points. I've read the formula and it is nothing close to what it claims to be.

Re: Mobile Filtered Out

Playing against people on mobile devices is the worst. Can't you please create a setting on the game filters to remove the option to match with mobile players? You do it for other criteria, so why not this? Possibility to restrict access to people only on computer (No mobile device) Not sure how a ...

Re: Restrict Table

I absolutely agree with this and wholehearted make the same suggestion. I don't know whaat it is but suddenly the matches with mobile players has jacked way up from my observations, but that play is always spotty and/or slow. Would really like to restrict out those not playing from a computer. If th...

Arena Play

I don't get the rank scoring for Arena mode. First, why does it impact ELO at all. IMHO these should be separate. Second, why can people come in late in the "season" and wreck the score of those who have one bad game. For example,I go up like 3 - 6 points at a time but drop like 28 - 32 pe...

Conflicting Messages

I red thumbed someone tonight for kingmaking/team play. When doing so, there's a pop-up recommending reporting people that may be violating terms of service with a link to the report function. After I followed that link, there's only a message about the best course of action being to red thumb them....

Re: Bohnanza

Turns out I had my head up my ass. I went back to the rules after your reply (which I probably should have done before your reply). The three field issue stemmed from the fact it was a 3-player game. I guess I have always played with four or more, so I didn't realize the a 3P game starts you with th...

Re: Bohnanza

Great game for BGA, but it does not play properly currently. First, the game starts with three bean fields, which is incorrect. Per the rules, you start with two and can buy a third. Second, the game ends after two passes of the deck at the start of Round 3. It should go through the deck three times...

Game Request: Imperial Settlers

Don't know if this is the right place for this, but I'd love to see Imperial Settlers on the site. Great game, and BGA would host it well.

Has it ever been considered?
