Board Game Arena

Thank you!

Hi, I have already reported this as a bug here https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=188179 but since it's affecting the current arena season and there are hundreds if not thousands of other bug reports with move votes, I figured I would try to get the admins' attention here. Unlike for other games, and...

It's so much better!

Thank you for letting players guess after their turn! This is such a huge improvement! Now it would probably better to remove the first/second player thing. But regardless, thanks!

Maybe change it so that every player gets a chance to give their solution after one player finds it? Still not as good as the other proposed changes, imo, but the way it is now is just too unfair for first player.

The new first/second player rule makes me want to quit as soon as I see that I'm first player.

All clues give as much info to you as they do to your opponents. Everyone has the same info, there's no reason why you should assume they didn't deduct what you did, if you used logic.

In your game, I wouldn't have asked anything and tried to guess instead.

What is the reason to not just use the official rules for the offline game (i.e. in a 2p game each player would both set up a puzzle for the opponent and try to solve the opponent's puzzle)? Is that still an option that might be considered? It seems like it would improve the game a lot.

I agree that the new implementation is better than before but gives way too much advantage to the second player. Being able to submit an answer after one's own turn would still be the best option, in my opinion. Or keeping each other's answers hidden, even better.

Let's say you send a wave from 4 and it exits from D as white. You know there's an oblique white side on D4, but you don't know anything about the rest of the white mineral. Then you can put a small piece of white mineral in D4 as a reminder, which you couldn't do with the whole mineral without risk...
