First game played today: 10 doubles in 30 moves. Please calculate the odds of essentially doubling the expected 16.7% frequency of throwing any double given a pair of fair dice. Table #2611705031 if you want to take a look. I realize that statistics is all about larger numbers, but having played ne...

Surprised this hasn't been answered yet. AFAIK the difference between first and third editions is not the "how to play" rules/mechanics, but changes to some of the dogma actions. Here are a couple of examples: Oars: First edition: I demand you transfer a card with a <crown> from your hand ...

A couple of them reappeared in the same place that I had already seen them, but I don't think they were counted twice towards the 20. They can all be found through normal viewing of pages (no tricks) but you will need to look in lots of different places. They're all the same size and colour. Knowing...

But...it's not April 1 yet... From what I can see, you posted that at 01:08 on 01 April 2021. Guess you forgot that people can be in different timezones, and each day starts earlier for most of the rest of the world than for you? I'm guessing you'd be a fan of the current United Nations proposal th...

Already asked and (not) answered at in another thread, https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewto ... 178#p64178

Again, you're both assuming that someone's timezone is the primary factor in determining whether they'll be able to complete a game in a timely manner. But that assumption isn't correct. (It might be correct for some people, but not for all.) there is little chance this new feature would make things...

It really isn't necessary - and all it would do is make it harder to find opponents and start games. If you're playing a real-time game, why should it matter whether the other player/s is in a similar timezone to you or on the opposite side of the world? The players are all awake, online, ready to p...

When you red-thumb, a dialogue pops up asking whether you want to avoid the player, or whether everyone should. I think that if you choose the first option (just for me), then it doesn't affect their reputation.
