Re: What happens if players draw on points?

Do you know what happens if that score difference is also a tie? Had that happen recently in a tourney, and we have no idea how it picked a winner. Coin flip?

See scores from previous episodes.

Is there any way to look at the scores from previous episodes while currently working on a campaign?

(Other than spending hours scrolling back through the game log?)

Re: Collaboration allowed?

In the spirit of the rules of this game: You may not actually show the card to other players, but you can say whatever you want. Other players have to decide if they can trust you. Table talk is part of the game.

Re: Choose menu together mechanics?

Okay. It's odd then that it doesn't let the other players know that they need to vote, so in a turn based match, the first player's timer runs to zero while everytone else doesn't know the game is waiting on them... :/

Choose menu together mechanics?

My group is trying to do the choose menu together option, but it is not at all clear how it works. One player has been asked to build a menu, but she can't do anything to 'finish' her turn (the hourglass stays on her and no one else. But it's also asking other players to vote? and change things? but...

Re: Inactivity Warning Notice

When you are using BGA, it's constantly communicating. Watching for other player's turns, checking the chat doobers, etc. If you don't interact with the page for a bit, it pauses all that to save BGA resources. No need to keep using traffic and power on a connection when the person has walked away. ...

Re: Why is Elo disabled for the official rules?

Swap2 is pretty fair, but it's also a totes different game, and my group doesn't want to play that game. They want a tourney using the 'pro' rules we always played in person. And they are all already on BGA. Convincing them to join some other website is right out. We were very excited to see Pente c...

Re: Why is Elo disabled for the official rules?

Perhaps having the original rules available for ELO games is too much (I haven't tried those in a very long time, so I didn't remember just how unbalanced they are), but all of the alternate openings are balanced enough, I think. I understand your dedication to fairness, but I'm not sure if you know...

Re: Cure AND Eradicate

BGA only implements official variants, in order to not clutter every game with lots of house rules. Is this variant in one of the rule books somewhere? If so, maybe the dev will take it on, otherwise you'll just have to play as is. :)

Confusing Tourney victory in Sushi Go multi-elim

Check the victors at this table: https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=238462312 We were playing multi-elim, so two players needed to be selected to move to the next round, BUT there was a tie for second, and they also tied the tie-breaker. In the past when there is a full tie in a tourney game, th...
