Re: Gizmos doesn't respect translation for "draw up to 3 times"

Yeah, looks like translations are a complete mess in this game. Played once in french, but it seems nothing can be fixed, because it's words instead of sentences, which prevents from putting them in the correct order for your language. I don't care much because I'll probably never play this game aga...

Re: some untranslatable strings on the main site…

Dunno about those, but I didn't find "Try to prevent same players to be opponent twice" either
in the tournament creation screen -- probably swiss system

Re: "ASK ME ANYTHING" avec le CEO de BGA sur REDDIT!

Nice one, Deosnawak. Considering the debatable "success" of the official version (see this thread ), I think the distance to TM on BGA isn't much more than one discussion with Jacob. While he can't scream it too much on BGG, Jacob never looked quite satisfied with this official version. e....

Re: Kingmaking NEEDS addressing

I doubt which-hunting makes much sense, but anyway. One can report people "Helping another player to win the game by playing as a team" or "using multiple accounts to boost ELO" already. I don't know your definition of "kingmaking", but in IRL games, I sometimes have to...

Do we have some statistics ?

I was wondering if we have access to some basic statistics like, in my case, the % of Kingdomino games with 2/3/4 players, and how frequently are each variants activated. Do we have this kind of global infos, or are the per-player stats the only ones available ? EDIT : Thanks RicardoRix. I'm aware w...

Re: "We recommend that playing this game with 4 people is best"

Thank for those quick answers. I personally consider Catan too random for bothering trying hard at it, but all this seems to make some sense, and was quite informative. 4P games taking too much time is another issue imo, precisely because you can't have good starting colonies and spend a lot of turn...

"We recommend that playing this game with 4 people is best"

Where do such recommendations come from ? BGG ? Polls ? BGA team choice ? Anything else ? In that particular case, I must say I was quite surprised to see 4P as the "best" number, since most players I know agree that 4P is terrible because someone usually gets surround-dead after one or tw...

/me est maintenant tout flatté. Tiens, les mises à jour des news "À la une" se font avec la même moulinette nocturne que les traductions ? Rigolo. Causer des news me rappelle une question qui titille ma curiosité : d'où est sorti le délire d'incruster M. Flanders partout ? Il est amateur d...

Mais non, pas "Il y a de quoi chérir ses briques..."

La v.o. (you will ship bricks) est pourtant claire : "ça va chiner des briques" !
