Re: How do you see how many games in progress for each game?

It seems to be the exact same list in the same order as the old one, isn't it ? How would I know, i can't see the old one. Also I can't see any graduation. Is it one game being played overwhelmingly much and the next are all about the same? Is item 20 close to item 2 or rather close to item 200? I ...

Re: How do you see how many games in progress for each game?

What was the real use of that list, outside pure curiosity about stats ? I never really understood the use for it We used it to check out games we're considering to add to the allround league. If it's to see popular games, you have a filter on the game list : https://boardgamearena.com/gamelist?isP...

Re: competitive games on BGA with self-arbitration?

In Go when counting the points, players have to mark the dead stones so that the counting works (as it is common on various go-servers).
However, there's a fallback in case of disagreement - players have to make additional moves which ultimately will lead to victory of the true winner.

Re: Karma

Watch out for a big drop-down-button in the upper part of the screen that has written "TURN-BASED" on it and change it to "REAL-TIME" before you start your search for a game. The button exists on the game page as well as in the play-now area.

Re: wishing a bomb out of your partner

Due to the respective chances, the number of the former is probably higher then the number of the latter ;) The key word being: "probably" "probably" as in "the expected difference is positive" yes. Of course it can differ in the sample of your played games ;). I also ...

Re: wishing a bomb out of your partner

Could I have won more games wishing for a missing card and destroying straights or bombs or other combos? Possibly. But I don't want to think about how many more games I would have lost crippling my partner with a bad wish. Due to the respective chances, the number of the former is probably higher ...

Re: wishing a bomb out of your partner

Yes, good players avoid 50/50 chance of luck elements. But 67/33 they gladly take in a game that has severe luck influence anyway. I also want to add that when I go first, I will wait a moment before wishing blind. That is a chance for you to call Tichu if you have a great hand that is vulnerable to...
