Re: Why do people like 2 player games?

In addition to the break you can also do tactical snaps of cards you don't want but deny them to the opponent -- in general it's just easier to focus on that kind of play when you only have one opponent to pay attention to.

Re: There are ZERO reasons tournament games have "Skip" other than some people abuse it for personal advantages

Why do people sign up to tournaments they don't have time to play? If everyone keep within time no one gets skipped. The problem usually occurs when there are people in different time zones playing the tournament, in which case your turn sometimes starts when you are asleep. It can also happen that...

Re: Improving Sponsor upgrade

Sponsors used to be the thing I never upgraded, but I saw people say it was one of the best things to upgrade first -- since then I started upgrading it first or second (after build) and I think it's great. If you think it's useless, I would recommend trying to use it more and see what you think.

Re: Please list the email we would use if we have future trouble

>The problem being that a as well as b was impossible because report form and support form both handled it with a dead end without the option to send anything. Not just that, but it basically said "if you can't find a place to report this, it's not against the rules", which does not sugges...

Re: Tournaments & karma: new rules

Thank you; this probably won't solve all the problems but it at least deals with people who are being reckless at best. >It would be nice if players would be auto-kicked from the tournament if they time-out. I think this is too harsh; having players ejected from tournaments can cause problems with t...

Re: Concede game in tournaments

This would be especially useful for things like 2 player Kingdom Builder where the game is sometimes decided before the halfway point but you have to keep playing for no purpose.

Re: Player "FUN WITH FLAGS" needs to go!

That's possible -- the reporting system doesn't really work if you try it for this person since all the potential options lead to dead-ends, and it's not obvious that you should e-mail one of them to complain about something that can't be reported through the system.

Re: Non-playing Player who has signed up for A LOT of tournaments

I like the idea of allowing negative karma; that would prevent this person from having 2950 penalties but then recovering his karma with a week of playing Can't Stop. But it's really discouraging to see the way the mods/admins have responded to this issue, mostly just by denying there's a problem, c...

Re: Non-playing Player who has signed up for A LOT of tournaments

This is not simply an issue with someone running out of time in a tournament. This person has been doing this for at least 6 months -- signing up for literally hundreds of tournaments, and not taking turns in many of them. This goes well beyond simple mistakes or someone accidentally signing up for ...
