Re: 3-player Arena

The Guru system? So there are users on here called Gurus for reaching a certain ELO score? That's an actual thing on BGA, and not a joke? That is hilarious. Kind of reminds me of how Apple likes to call their minimum wage workers "geniuses." It's dumber than that. It's just the 100 player...

Re: 3-player Arena

I was giving it one more season, but just canceled my premium membership. The guru system is too opaque and unresponsive. If they are not interested in providing a premium experience, I'm not paying them more money.

It's obviously a typo for "trend". They don't follow the trend

Re: Losing players leave the game during playing

There’s obviously an enormous difference between someone quitting one turn before someone else is going to win, and someone who is rightfully disgruntled that they are stuck clicking “next” every minute for the next hour. The current interface is moderately user hostile.

Re: Losing players leave the game during playing

Playing through the game is a common board game etiquette thing. Just play it through and try your best. You will find that you can learn much more when playing in tight situations.

Re: Winter of Games 2022 Calendar!

I'm sad this wasn't announced further ahead of time. By the time I even knew it existed I'd already missed a day. No completion for me I guess.

Re: Give away deal from losing player

I've even done it myself where one player was spitefully applying the robber to me every go despite me being in last place with 2VP when everyone else was near to winning. Ha! I did it once too for almost identical reasons. Dude just would not stop robbing me. Even when I was way out of the game. E...

Re: An even faster game

A lot of players are excruciatingly slow. It would be nice to be able to filter tables by "average turn time" like karma. It's fine that some players need a couple minutes to decide to build a road or not. But I don't want to play with them
