Board Game Arena

It sounds like you are using the newer style lobbies attached to each game page. I thought this as well (hence my reply promoting Play Now), but they've had an account since 2016, so they must have seen the old Play Now lobby before. Perhaps they think it was taken away? Or maybe their description ...

Based on the comments for the two bugs, it does look like the new game lobby might be related to these issues. The question I have is whether you can avoid these issues by using the old reliable "play now" lobby ? OP, which method do you use to start your games? I pick the game I want to ...

I don't think Arena should be limited this way, but certainly an annual championship arena season for the top players would be a good thing.

At least on my display the end of round scoresheet changed recently. I used to be able to tell who was in the lead and by how much, but now it often looks like a tie when it's not - and I have to manually count the scores. Did I inadvertently change something or is this a BGA change. If it's a BGA c...

These are not my original ideas, they were implemented in another web version of TFM - and they definitely make the game more fun and were popular with players on that site. These are game setup options, not changes to all games. They would only exist if the person creating the game made these choic...

I use the setting to restrict karma to 75+, but people with low karma are still able to join my games. I was initially inclined to give these people a 2nd chance, but after some attempts at that I think it's best to just prevent low karma people from joining entirely. There is a setting that seems t...

You can disallow new players. That won't catch every instance, but for whatever reason I see a brand new players that never played a game on bga and they clearly know the game and interface. I am not sure the point of having a bunch of accounts, but I assume some sort of shenanigans reasons and I pr...

I am not sure if one of the player's isn't accepting or if it's just a bug. But I've seen that way too much recently.
