Board Game Arena

Cobra has been there twice, i have been there once, but I would never argue that i actually reached 500 because of cheaters or leavers. I didnt reach it and thats it. If you face cheaters in a game, stay pure and dont "countercheat", even if it seems fair at tut point. We have our first 50...

I am sure we all feel gutted and annoyed when this happens. The same feeling would end up happening to a person who was on the verge of winning and had a game quit against them.

Sadly both moderators and admins have left this place as it seems. Nothing will happen.

We have a known cheater at Tichu for half a year now. Emails and notifications are unresponded. After 5-6 tries I gave up.

Cheating Some (rare) case of cheating have been spotted in the previous season. You have to keep in mind that a player cheating the Arena is quite easy to spot, by admins, moderators, and even by simple players. Thus, it is impossible to heavily abuse the system without triggering warnings. Our adv...

i seem to see lots of double sixes in this game. Four on the trot in one game. is this just statistical fluke or has anyone else experienced this? In a 2 - player - game, the probability to roll 4 or more 6-6 is almost exactly 5%. Which means in average every 20th game you should see 4 or more 6-6 ...
