Re: Same IP Players Now Premium?

I don't know if it was your intention, sourisdudesert, but I've found your responses in this thread rude and dismissive. They've created a great site but they've never been very good at communicating ( see this thread and watch the dates ). Anyways. I'm out of here. Apparently there's only one usef...

Re: e-mail notifications (fr/en question)

I think it's quite disappointing, that nobody from BGA has answered in this thread in over a year.

This e-mail-spam bothers me quiet a bit and so, as nobody tells me how to disable it, I guess I will return to playing elsewhere.

Re: e-mail notifications (fr/en question)

This thread is pretty old and has not gotten an answer. I re-started playing here 2 weeks ago and those mails are annoying... How to disable them?

Re: Expelling players: why is the game unranked (no ELO)?

Generally my point only was: There should be some sort of punishment for breaking games and runing the fun of playing here for other players. When trying to report a leaver, BGA states that there is already a penalty: A leaver penalty, ELO penalty and possibly a red thumb ( which in cancelled games ...

Re: Expelling players: why is the game unranked (no ELO)?

I agree, a game cannot be ranked when one (or more) player(s) has/have left the game early. But the ranking isn't the problem - the problem is the people leaving. Imo there should just be a different (real!) punishment for leavers, especially for intentional leaving to prevent a loss. Instead of giv...

Re: Unable to give thumb on player who didn't start game

I'll highjack this thread because I don't feel like the question has been officially answered and I ran into a similar problem. When a game is cancelled due to someone intentionally leaving, the system also disallows giving thumbs, because the game apparently "never happened" (which in thi...

Re: error (****hidden for security reason****)

Yup, Jaipur seems to be broken completely. I can't do anything in both games (#9080908 & #9449622) I'm playing (getting the same error for every action I could take) and I can't even report a bug, because when I try to send it I get the same error. Also when I try to skip the replay of the previ...

Re: Turn-based experiences

There is both for me. Games with people never coming back (mostly new players, indeed) and games with players leaving (or never coming back), when they notice that "turn based, 1/2 turn(s) per day" means, that the game is... well, turn based. I agree, that maybe in a few weeks, this proble...

Turn-based experiences

Hi there, I was really looking forward to the turn-based mode on BGA because I never feld comfortable joining games (especially ones I had never played here before) in real-time mode due to time-restrictions and thumb-rating-system. Unfortunately, while the turn-based mode is technically well implem...

Re: Stalled game because of player ignoring his turn

When a player does not act for too long you can kick him out of the game. This happens, when the timer-bar at the top center of the screen turns completely red. For some games, play resumes (more or less) normally, some games get cancelled - but it at least gives you the chance to finish / cancel on...
