I don't know why every time this topic comes up, everyone starts hiding their head in the sand and feigns not understanding that the inconvenience of waiting for someone (which on this site just means having a table open) is not in the same ballpark of harm as seeing a game terminated without being...

Chess is a single game that already has programs made that can solve it. BGA has thousands of games that would need to each be solved individually in order to have such a feature. Yes that's true, but it's theoretically not impossible. Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the games here maintained b...

I just lost a game when I had 200 elo against a beginner A "beginner" on BGA does not mean they have not played the game before, nor that they are not skilled at the game. It just means they have not played it very much on BGA yet. You shouldn't treat ELO as "this rating means you sh...

Just had this happen twice with the same player...can't report him because it's not an offense...I think no one should play with him and the moderators should look at these two games and give him a ban. You can read thumb a user for "personal reasons" to avoid being matched with them. You...
