Report non-functional tutorial?

What's the best way to report a non-functional tutorial, since it's not a bug with the actual game? In this case, my friend and I were going through the tutorial for Res Arcana and about a quarter of the way through we reached a step that was impossible to get past--clicking the button or icons that...

Slack/Discord plugins?

I play a lot of turn-based games and I find that the browser-based notifications are okay, but not ideal. I also am a member of quite a few Slack and Discord groups, and in some of them I even have dedicated gaming channels for BGA. I would love to have a BGA app that pushed notifications to a user ...

Is this the 2nd edition? I haven't played either version, but I'm trying to figure out which rulebook to read. The rulebook linked on the first page is 1st edition, but the artwork looks like 2nd edition.

Re: Conceding IS NOT quitting - unfair penalty

Another data point is that by conceding via quitting, the conceder/quitter impacts the other players' ELO rankings--they don't get their full marks if the game doesn't finish properly. Please distinguish between quitting and conceding. My point was that the player who started this thread, and many ...

Games are mislabeled "Prototype"

On the main Games page, there are a bunch of games listed as "Prototype" that I think are carryovers from when they were in Alpha and they got mislabeled or something. Specifically, these games are published games, not prototypes: Splendor Fleet Homesteaders Nanga Parbat Con Sonar! And the...

Re: Players quitting games they are losing is a serious problem for arena

I just recently was playing a game of Lost Ruins of Arnak, and we came into the final round with a player who was pretty clearly going to win. The other player didn't quit exactly, but he passed right at the beginning of the round, not using any of his actions/cards/etc, since he knew he couldn't wi...
