Re: WINTER OF GAMES 2023: Starting 1st DECEMBER!

Will you be able to collect them ALL if you miss a single of the 31 days? Nope. That's a challenge. It's all up to you. I think this should be rephrased in light of not being able to claim the last two days because I juet get spammed with the generic "are you connected to the Internet?" m...

Re: ShyChat: No more shy when playing on BGA thanks to OpenAI

So many replies here about it being early/wrong day. Hey gang, especially those in the 'centre of the known universe' (usa): Time zones exist, and if you happen to be in the Americas then your zone is negative, indicating about half the planet will arrive into the next day before you -- in some case...

Re: Unlimited Guns

(Without playing with this mode yet) I suspect this will remove some of the charm of the game. There's something fun, and funny about at the start of the game several players grabbing a gun, revealing info about themselves, with no idea who to aim at or possibly actually shoot -- for the sole reason...

Re: Arena Season 6: it's Guru time!

Is the goal of each arena season to have the settings be the same across all games? For example, last season in Oh Hell a new developer created new options for the game. Some users had personal preferences set that would change the format of the arena games. It was really inconsistent to play, and ...

Kalah: 6 stones - based on viewtopic.php?f=97&t=20693 Letter Tycoon: 2 players - based on viewtopic.php?f=320&t=20532 We missed these ones => fixed. Too late to change Cinco this season based on the tiny poll I made? (Outcome... 2 players, Joker enabled. Sample size: 3 votes :P) https://boa...

Re: Can a game determine whether a player is online?

only saves the other players a few seconds of waiting. (Or saves the returning player a miniscule amount of effort.) I'm not sure I can agree on either of these fronts about it. You have correctly noted my question was a technical one, I'm not originally here to spruik the merits, or lack of them a...

Can a game determine whether a player is online?

Hi, Wondering if this is possible, as I'm making a suggestion for Oh Hell to have auto-play when a player has no choices to make (e.g. a singular card they could play) -- Except the game automatically submitting a move for a player that's offline would expose information to other players. This could...

Re: Community poll: Future Arena Season Table configuration

My vote went to Joker: Enabled and 1v1 or 1v1v1 Joker to me reduces the randomness of the game, allowing you to take bad cards and by expending effort making them good. It also allows for mind games using the numbers leading up to 90. Joker to me is a fundamental part of making the game interesting....

Community poll: Future Arena Season Table configuration

Hi all, I thought I'd setup a poll to get community feedback on what people want to see the Cinco config set at. A series of options are currently not fixed/locked at the moment leading to inconsistent tables being setup. Een suggests here that using the forums for voting is the best way to reach a ...

Re: FAQ: Arena mode

I have an example of Arena Season 5 tables being created with different configurations. i.e. not respecting "Competition Configuration" of all being the same, and having a significantly different variant option for just one of my tables. What is the "competition configuration"? A...
