Board Game Arena

People who intentionally block on purpose are cowards. Players trying to stop others from blocking in rated games are cheaters too cowardly to play an honest game of Ticket to Ride. They can choose to add blocking to their game, or choose not to, but they should stop cheating at Ticket to Ride so m...

Agreed. It's hard to read usernames with the glow.

I'm so tired of the Arena only being the single tile and not the strategic variant. In the last month for gurus we even voted the same for both keeping the current format or changing to strategic variant, 3 votes for each. It should go to a tie breaker rather than default back to the previous forma...

Yes I wish all games that new information wasn't revealed on would let you undo or backtrack your turn. In Carcassone Hunters and Gatherers there isn't even the meeple placement preview that normal Carcassone has which is helpful. Both could use an undo function though because so often you place a t...

Catan is part social game where you try to get the other players to steal from not you. But you have all the right to choose one person to steal from for whatever reason, they just also have a right to complain in the chat, just like you're complaining here.

Ooh I see, yes I did that once. At least a warning that asks if you are sure you want these X=(0,1,2) room tiles added to the stack.

Most other times I think the Confirm button is enough though.

Well they could display some stats but the score itself would be rather meaningless to display, since generally a score doesn't tell you the whole story until the end of a game. Then there's the problem that the stats of that game may be added to that player's general stats, or that game's general ...

Just wondering, as this discussion is quite heated : Maybe you could give some numbers so that the size of the "problem" (if there is any) might be appreciated better : How often did someone concede on you (in proportion to all the games you've played) AND how close were you to the ending...
