Re: Why do you have to wait 50% of the game to give up?

Why do you have to wait 50% of the game to give up? There are situations where it becomes clear who will win when playing with two players. To make it more burdensome for people who make alt accounts to Elo boost with them. If you could just concede after one move, many of the cheaters would. Yes, ...

Re: Two actions mostly all the time please

Here is the problem: In 2 player, there is no advantage to ever doing 2 actions except for when you want to place a tile combo or grab 2 milestones at the same time that are contested.

Yet, all the time I am matched against primarily Chinese players who seem to play a lot (fast responses 24/7 in turn based) and are also v...

Players with bad behavior, pushing others to "Play faster"

A lot of people on here complain about the occassional leaver ruining a game. Personally, I encountered this very little, to the point that it's negligible. Something I do see a lot though when playing on BGA, is people actually spamming in chat about others having to play faster, while other player...
