Re: PANDA SPIN: Right round like a record...

I've been staring at my screen while it's zoomed in, looking like an idiot for 10 minutes.... This Flanders is super camouflaged. I still don't see him. Not gonna lie I haven’t been a fan of the last couple. He’s just not fun to find lol. I sound like such a complainer. He is in the yellow crescent...

Re: A New Logo for Board Game Arena

I hope the 1st year design student was well paid for their efforts.

This looks like a logo from the 1980's. Definitely like one of the home computers, Commadore or Sinclair.

What was the reason?

Re: There are ZERO reasons tournament games have "Skip" other than some people abuse it for personal advantages

Tournaments vary on the amount of time given per player, and I guess players are not considering this before joining. Yes there may be times when real life causes issue, but a lot of time it's the same players who simply join tournaments when they can't honour the time commitments. There is a proble...

Re: gg

I find the auto-translated message of "Thanks for the game!" is more accurate to what I am trying to convey and avoids the issue of people saying "not for me". If there was something striking about the game I can also comment on that separately. Do you have to type all that out ...

Re: Who programmed the dice?

Consider this code (which should have the same randomness as the Catan game code here on BGA unless there really is something wrong), if you run it with 300 dice rolls, usually 7 is rolled most often, followed by 6 and 8, and so on. If you run it with 60 rolls (a realistic game length in basic Cata...

Re: Evolution tutorial

Good tutorial, pity there were no navigation arrows. A couple of times I clicked and was confused what happened, so had to restart the tutorial again to see the step again.

Re: Alhambra

You don't say what device you are using or software, whether viewing the desktop or mobile version.
Sounds like you need to tweak your set-up

Re: Option to remove first 2 scoring

Getting a lot of double actions in the first half is a lot of luck. If someone takes tiles without double actions early, they typically lose. Top players hold on money until they can perfect pay nearly EVERYTHING until end game now. By not having 3 scoring rounds, the double actions everyone gets w...

Re: Can't place my tiles

You have to have a path back to the well. So you can't place a wall to wall if that's the only side connecting. Or is it a UI issue - when you select the piece purchased it shows all possible placements plus the reserve board. If there are no valid placements, then just the reserve board is selected...
