Re: Why only single tie breaker criteria?

"So the the higher ELO player should get points because they are expected to play better?? That doesn't make sense." Replace "points" with "punish". Stupid typo on my part. Your Elo rating is not a matter of punishments and rewards: it's an estimate of how well you pla...

Re: 2 player arena??

Was hoping there could be both 2p and 4p arena, but after being on this site a bit more it seems they prefer to only choose one player count for arena games. If that is the case I think 3p is preferable as some of the other people here mentioned. Not exactly. It's one configuration per season , but...

Re: What's your fastest game?

10 turns would be insanely fast. Your game was 20 turns, 10 rounds. Generally a light speed game takes about 40 turns regardless of the number of players, so it's definitely fast. I think my fastest games have been 24 turns.

Re: Please stop putting timers on confirmation buttons

I forgot to reply to this one, lol. Does BGA not have the move go through? That's irksome. Would have figured not rejecting the move would amount to them playing it. Ark Nova has complicated turns and a "Confirm" button without a timer. The button is definitely useful, but playing realtim...

Re: Proposed balance change for first player advantage

In the right circumstances, a Clever can be almost as good as four Xs. The biggest problem with either suggestion is that they're only considering 2-player games.

Re: Unable to load table, image asset error 404

It's not a Terraforming Mars-specific problem. I've been having the same issue on other games. Looks like a load issue (maybe DDOS) with the CDN.
