Board Game Arena

The vast majority of tables on BGA are turn based, so you'll be more likely to find an opponent around your skill level. Wait, seriously? What makes you say that? I'd expect there to have been far more real-time based games on BGA than turn-based. It's a shorter format, easier and more conventional...

In Team vs the Game situations, I would prefer a >99% win rate for the team. I don't like losing a game, just because we got unlucky. For new players I want them to have less than a 50% winrate with 25% being about right for me. For good-advanced players I want it to be over 50% with 66% and 75% be...

Set things to manual. Go to make a game. Then adjust the game mode from friendly to normal. Note this won’t work for alpha games. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/728260806462013510/1188560383582150759/IMG_4013.png?ex=659af81d&is=6588831d&hm=9d2572be8d9115caae1e01f20cc21bd0dce07906febd...

When you go to play now, you probably are in turn based default mode. Swap it to real time.

But when you click to convert to turn based, it pings the other players to accept or reject the suggestion. If you are not there to take your final confirmation button or action on their turn... you are also not there to accept the invitation to make it a turn based game. Proposing a switch to turn...

If your opponent has played through to the end of the game only to time out, why not move to turn based? They may have even done this very thing! But when you click to convert to turn based, it pings the other players to accept or reject the suggestion. If you are not there to take your final confi...

If you click to play a turn based game, permission is given at the moment you queue for the game. If you don't hit cancel before the game launches, it will launch sometime in the future and potentially put you in this position. The other alternative is that you have signed up for tournaments that th...

Happened again, I played against a bronze league player when I was purple and used the above settings. Thank you everyone for the explanations but sadly before is not the way it works. If you are using +1/-1 in a game type that only has bronze and elite leagues, this will still allow playing a bron...

You can use some form of settings for other modes. But settings of +- level only make sense in arena and are only present when setting preferences for arena.

Edit: I was 3/4 right but confusing. Read Kayvon below. NOTE: Friendly (or at least alpha) games do something strange with their counts. Winning 3 of 3 games in an alpha game has some REALLY strange stuff to those stats. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/728260806462013510/1172926966148628550/i...
