Re: new graphics

Basically, what everybody else here has said: the new graphics make it unplayable. Not only are the graphics too washed out to see, the cards used to have the actual name of the building on it, which has now disappeared, so there's no way to work out what's what. I've upvoted the first of the bug re...

Coal Baron: Grammar error in game logs

I couldn't find the game log text in the translation pages, so I thought I'd alert folks in charge here:

In the game logs, in the majority scoring it says: 1th majority/2th majority/3th majority instead of 1st/2nd/3rd

Buttercups - anyone else interested in plants enough to be bothered by the weird translation choice?

I expect this cannot be changed as it appears to be the same in the English cardboard version, but it really bugs me that the clematis are called "buttercups" in the game. The original game is in Polish and the word they use is "powojniki" - clematis - so, whoever came up with th...

Ah, ok - thanks, everyone, that is good to know! :)
No worries then about waiting if this one player plays or not. :D

What happens when tournament game time runs out?

Sorry if this has been asked elsewhere, I did a search but didn't find anything. I'm in a tournament where the time per game is 15 days - 3-player games, 5 days per player. In the game I'm currently in, one player is already 3 days over their allotted time, we are on day 11, so I'm beginning to wond...

Re: Can we also get a random and/or no takeover indicator?

I second this. I recently joined a table that didn't mention takeovers, so I assumed they were off and was very surprised to find them there - I now assume it was set on random? I love to play the first three expansions but loathe the takeover variant. I wasn't even aware there was a 'random' option...

Re: No Time Limit shouldn't mean Training Mode

I dislike the change a lot and don't understand the reasoning for it. We always play with actual, real life friends in a different country in real time and enjoy the "ELO" you get or lose. We do, however, sometimes take our time for chatting or just planning a move and don't like to feel r...

Re: Real Time/no time limit games getting cancelled after a break - is that normal or is it a bug?

Ah, good to know - thanks, Shivaware! I guess we should play turn-based then, if we are not sure we can finish without a break. :)
