Question re Association card 1 and 4p

i don't play 4p often, so i'm unsure if this is a bug or a feature. I had the Association 1 card (the one that lets you double up on partnerships and universities) upgraded. i had started on partnerships, while the other 3 players got early universities. When i went to get my first university, the o...

Re: PSA: Do not tell in all chat what you hand over in draft!

pretty sure this would fall under the category of
"Give some piece of information about the current game situation that disturbs the normal game flow."
which is in the code of conduct

Re: Harrassment during games

There is something to OP's point though I've reported more Ark Nova opponents for abusive language in the last 2-3 months than i have combined in the previous 10+ years i've been on BGA. Often, it's a spectator that feels need to chime in with their 0.02c on how well"" you played. There's ...

F Craft teacher. That is all.

Don't feel strongly towards anything else either for or against, unless people bring up unbanning Big Country and Little Peasant again.

Re: When do cards like ebonist trigger?

Just be mindful that you don't actually get a chance to use any cards during the breeding phase unless you have both a) the "auto reorganize" option set to manual, or auto with confirm AND b) an actual breeding pair. You wouldn't be the first person to miss that ebonist & similar cards...

Re: <B049/Scales> and <A096/Task Artisan>

If you've ever played MTG, think of it as both the occ and the improvement 'entering the battlefield' at the same time, causing two triggers to go on the stack.

Re: Is building F "sell two of the same cow for 4" a good action in general

Strong? - no
Useful / necessary / better than other options - frequently

by itself "$4 + cycle 2 cards" isn't a great action, but you'll often need it to make your next hiring/cow market action or delivery better.

Re: Banlist Discussion!

I think that's all I'd ban at the moment, although I'm amenable to the possibility that Beer Table is too much. However, I'm a bit less convinced on this one as I still see players passing it a good bit. If we're banning something for strength, generally I think that card should be getting first pi...

Re: Banlist Discussion!

Work Certificate must definitely go. it has Edit - negligible cost, either in playing the card, or triggering it. it doesn't just give the player free resources, it steals them from the board which is completely obnoxious. Even if the average game it only nets 5-6 resources, that's still too effici...
