Re: Wanna discuss whether 3P or 4P is better for Arena again?
If memory serves, 4p was used as the setup for the first Arena season because 4p was voted in boardgamegeek as the best player count for 7W. Now for the 7W 2nd ed, 5p is voted as the 'best player count to play the game in boardgamegeek. Shouldn't Arena then default to 5p for Arena? 3p and 4p players...

Re: Some first edition stats
I manually collated them, from BGA game results, from 2017-2020. Back then, I'd look at the top ELO players (and decent rated players who consistently played 7p), and check their history for 7p games and record the results -win-or lose and what wonder was played. I don't interpret the lower win rate...

Re: Auto-start + spectators chat + many little things (May 8th update)
I've noticed full tables don't autostart. At least with Sushi Go and 7 Wonders. Is there a time delay before auto starting or auto-start no longer works? Players have been leaving because full tables don't start

Re: PROHIBITING SPECTATOR CHAT
Many small improvements today (May 8th 2020). Spectator chat We decided to forbid spectators to chat during the games. We know that in specific situations, it may be useful. But there are more situations where this is causing problems than the opposite. And in real life, you would not want to let a...

Re: Auto-start + spectators chat + many little things (May 8th update)
I like the auto-start improvement. I play only 7-player 7 Wonders, so I wait for tables that has seats up to 7 players, not joining early because the game might be started with fewer than 7 players. But when it gets full with 7 players, sometimes, the players end up waiting and if the wait is long b...

Re: PROHIBITING SPECTATOR CHAT
I like prohibiting spectator chat. Those chats are distracting, especially from a spectator whose not even part of the game. When someone types something, there is a popping sound and I tend to look at it, to see if it's important, and momentarily breaks my concentration. So, if it's just someone sa...

Re: For Sale: An Interesting Case Study of Irrationality
For Sale is a game where players are predictably irrational Any updates/revisions on your strategic analysis for the game, now that the game is more than 6 months old in BGA and where players are now more experienced, and as a consequence, more 'rational'? Is your strategy still as effective as bef...

Re: Arena - Season Zero [BETA]
Great job!
Why not make each season's end coincide with the year's end, in December? That way, each season's winner is also that year's winner.
