Board Game Arena

Is there any updated ETA for the beta? Sorry if this sounds a bit impatient -- I’ve been following this thread for almost a year and it’s been awesome watching the progress. Just really excited and curious when we might finally get to play it. Sorry if you already know this, but if you want to play...

Will we have Milty draft?

Apologies if this has been asked and answered.

Can we have an official announcement for the server issues and what is being done to mitigate them? Although it is obviously not realistic for the server to have an uptime for 100%, especially given that the BGA team is very small (the server status page says as much), I think paying members at leas...

I wonder what the chances are of Dice Throne ever appearing on BGA?

Apologies if this post is redundant.

Is there any way to "pre-pass," so that we do not need to manually pass when asked whether we want to do the secondary of a strat card?

We already have punishments for offenses that are not as serious as deliberately leaving a game (like running out of time for reasons outside of one's control), s...

sometimes people do things we don't like sorry doing something to stop people from conceding with one move to go is like doing something to stop yall from going on and on about it it's not the right thing to do Not a very good point. Sure, we can't literally force people to keep playing a game, but...

Is there a group for TI4 alpha testers?

Some alphas have groups. Some do not. I don't know why that is.

For TI4 especially a group would be useful since the games are so long and there also seems to be much to be discussed for the upcoming beta release.
