Re: Ways to raise money for BGA

Unfortunately, most people think that everything on the web should be free and they do not realize the costs associated with running something like this. In my opinion the only way you are going to get more people to be members is to offer them something for the money. If it were up to me I would ta...

Re: Waiting screen before game - FAQ

Perhaps it is time to make premium games truly premium and available only to paying members, not just only able to be created by paying members. This would give people an incentive to pay for the premiums and people would feel like they are getting something for their money rather than being punishe...

Re: Hide full tournaments in menu

I know this is a very old thread but it would be great if there was a way to see only unstarted tourneys that I have not joined. When I look at a list of tourneys (Can't Stop for example) there are many listed and I have no easy way to know which ones I have joined. I can check a box to see only tho...

Show ELO change in end of game email

Right now we get an email when a turn-based game ends that shows the final score.

It would be nice if the ELO change for the game was also in that email.

Re: Running out of time in tournaments

I am not at all sure I know what is going on here. In this game https://en.boardgamearena.com/#!table?table=29600715 the system ended the game automatically and I had not skipped the other player's turn even though I had that option. When the game ended it declared me the winner but it does not show...

Re: Running out of time in tournaments

I also had a tournament game end that way recently. Table Carcassonne #29461698. I was the one who was out of time, likely due to our time zone differences. When the next tourney game was ready to start my opponent was declared the winner as he had more time left but there was no ELO change for eith...

Re: Revealing secret info in chat

The Saboteur is a bluffing game. You can reveal information and you can lie to deceive your opponents. That's the spirit of this game. It seems that you just don't know how to play Sab. I own and know the game quite well. Even the creator has stated on BGG that his preference is for people to not s...

Re: Revealing secret info in chat

The rules say that when you use a map "HE" now know what is there, not that the table now knows what is there.

Since giving this info out totally ruins the game for me I will just not play it here.

Revealing secret info in chat

Hello. I am still new here and I am just wondering how common it is for people to reveal secret game info via the in game chat system. In one of my turn-based games of Saboteur I came back to the table to find that one of the players had announced that the top treasure card was coal. This is informa...
