I'm not really sure the problem Arena mode is trying to solve is a real problem. So some people get to a #1 ranking and play infrequently after that. Who is upset by this? The #2 - #10 players who think they should be #1? Does anyone else care? To me, Arena mode just seems like a way for active play...

Thank you for looking at that. That would make sense, but this game is also a four player game, and the total ELO variation is equal to the sum of the individual results without dividing by 3. https://en.boardgamearena.com/#!table?table=47061317 Edit: Actually, it was a five-player game, but it stil...

When a game is over, you can see a breakdown of your change in ELO based on how you did against each opponent. Normally your total change in ELO is the sum of the changes from each opponent, but sometimes it is not. In particular, when your K factor is 20, the total change is often not the sum of th...

I believe you may have inadvertently changed the time limits for turn-based games already in progress. For example, previously if a game was started with a time limit of 2 days plus 8 hours per turn, you could accumulate up to 48 hours of time. For new games started with 8 hour turns, there is a 24 ...

Is there an easy way of determining how many ranked players there are in a given game? For example, my profile tells me I'm 1834th at 7 Wonders, which is very nice, but it would be a lot more meaningful to me if I knew how many total players there were on the 7 Wonders ranking table. I know I could ...
