Board Game Arena

I'd suggest filing a bug as either a "suggestion" or a "game display", then reply here with a link to the bug so that other players can vote for it.

I noticed this when I first started playing C&K here, so I started putting messages warning about that this was a C&K game. Now I just use the game preferences with the automatic matching and set the expansion to "I'm okay with C&K" and "I never want to play Base Game".

I'd prefer to see C&N completely separated from the base game, and have its own link since they are totally different games [...] Then it would automatically have its own arena. Having separate games would also help with Catan players who inadvertently join a Catan+C&K game and then quit be...

+1 (really +100) I've been playing Catan for a _long_ time (almost 30 years now), and I prefer Cities & Knights (C&K) -- it's really a separate game, even though it shares some mechanics with base Catan. Saying they're the same game would be like saying that 7-card Draw and Texas-Hold 'em ar...

I find this a bit hard to believe. I'm certainly no expert in game AI, and it's been years since I played Innovation, but it seems to me that a solver for the game would be a serious accomplishment. Yet there seems to be no mention of it in the BGG forums that I can find. I can also find little ref...

The game was: https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=269281660

I've removed the chat session quote, per community guidelines.

I reported the player as a "chat violation", because there isn't a reporting category for "used software to cheat".

Today I was playing a match in the Arena. After the game was over, my opponent revealed that he was using an engine (similar to a chess-playing engine) to direct his play. He didn't inform me about this before the game started. Is this allowed on BGA? If it is, how do I avoid ever playing with this ...

Probably related to the general issues BGA is having - see the big banner at the top of the forum. I'd recommend trying again once the BGA service issues are sorted - hopefully that won't be too long but it's impossible for anyone on the outside to know.

That seems to have been the problem.

I registered for a Coloretto tournament (https://boardgamearena.com/tournament?id=138047), but have decided to unregister. Every time I click the unregister button, I get an error: Unexpected error: Error with notification service (TIMEOUT), please retry (reference: VO 20/04 14:26:36) Any suggestions?

To add another perspective, generally speaking I much prefer text > videos. I didn't end up watching the Q&A stream (internet too slow for 1080p). And videos tend to be much longer than text anyway. And you can't really skim/skip the sections that you aren't interested at, so you might end up w...
