Re: why on line gamers are so impatient?
To me, the main issue is the fact that BGA implemented a concept of "reputation", with a moral sense in it (by naming it "karma"), that is at like 95% attached at playing on time (and the "5" other % are hidden from players: we know exactly how players lose karma when t...

Re: Automatic red thumb for players with bad karma
I don't think many people go through the tables manually anymore. I doubt that. Would be interesting to see a poll on this as well as on the "new lobby". Personally I always use manual when possible. This way I can see where there are tables already. Overall it gives me a greater control.

Re: Savoir qui nous a donné un pouce rouge ?
Elle n'existe pas et les modérateurs n'ont pas vraiment envie qu'elle existe, je pense. C'est à la discrétion des joueurs.

Re: Summer of Games 2023
Anyone else been disappointed with the games revealed thus far? Feel like they've been pretty underwhelming for the most part, which I did not expect based on the way the event has been billed. Maybe I'm missing something though - definitely let me know if there are some hidden gems in the games re...

Re: New game page
I usually don't comment on design. People naturally tend to resist changes. But this one I think is really a mistake. What do I want from a game table screen? I want information about the table and participants. https://i.postimg.cc/T5TVn7Bt/Greenshot-2023-01-24-12-44-37.png Maybe it's not the pret...

Re: Change the layout of the rematch game screen
Funnily, I wrote a topic on basically the same issue: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=32054 What you are discussing is the single-game mode. It is also the one you go through if you try a new game from "the games", as well as if you accept an invitation. Everything used to...

Re: Make "simple" mode fully optional
I'm talking of two things: the "simple mode" and the "automatic mode". I dislike them both. What I mean with "simple mode" is what you get when you click on rematch, or on a new game, etc.: https://zupimages.net/up/23/34/oojc.png I call it "simple mode", becau...

Make "simple" mode fully optional
I have tried to use both automatic mode and simple mode but I don't like them. They offer less transparency, less control, and I don't find them that simple. Maybe beginners do though, I'll accept that. What frustrates me is that in different cases, I am forced into simple mode, even temporarily, ty...

Re: Regarding Arabic Translations
What is true is that translators can be fishing for rewards, and thus are more incentivized into participating quantitatively and imposing their version than into participating qualitatively and accepting it if another player made a better version.
