These are people who are friends outside of BGA. Why would one of them expel the other? I've been reading Agatha Christie mysteries recently and this is beginning to feel like one. "How could a timer exist in a non-timer game? And why would Mr. Smith expel his lifelong friend from a game?"

That is weird. Yes, someone might have just quit the game, since that is allowed in friendly mode. No, they were skipped by another player. It's in the log. I am guessing the change from real-time friendly to turn-based friendly added the timers, then. I can't think of anything else that would caus...

I created a Studio bug report, since all tables are failing to load in Studio at this time. *edit* It just started working again, thanks for fixing it quickly so those of us in the US can keep w...

Hi, I was just playing a game where a Sol player gave me their promissory note. I wanted to silence the alarm since I wasn’t planning on using it anytime soon, but before I did I realized there is no alarm option for that specific promissory note. Which if my memory is right reads somewhere along t...

Android (so Chrome engine) BGA app, no ad blocker.

Also a point to realize is that you are considered neighbours during the agenda phase regardless of boardstare and can make 1 transaction during that as well. Rule 60: " Two players are neighbors if they both have a unit or control a planet in the same system. They are also neighbors if they b...
