Players with too many open games and bad reputation. What to do?

Post by Hardin2000 »

Hello all,

There are some players on BGA that have more than 200 tables open. Well that's ok if they can finish that games in time, or at least most of them.

But i found some special cases on my tables (and on other tables of some tournaments where I was). Some of those players have very bad reputation, precisely because they have too many open games and can't handle all.

I'm currently playing with 2 of those that I will use as examples (I will not name them):
- One in a Potion Explosion table of 2 players, without a single move yet (and game will finish in a day) with 0% reputation, 206 open tables, excluded from 196 games, 1083 games over time, On 1940 recent games,
- Another that (most of you probably know lol) in a Potion Explosion table of 4 players (already with negative time), with 0% reputation, 417 open tables (he was with near 500 2 days ago), excluded from 220 games, 980 games over time, On 2628 recent games.

It's a pain and not fun at all play with them. So basically what i would ask is some rules like this. Take this suggestions just as examples:

- If a player reputation goes bellow 50% he couldn't sign for more than 100 turn based tables in next 10 days (if he is already on 100+ tables, then he couldn't sign to any turn based tables at all, before he finish some tables to get bellow 100).

-If a player reputation goes bellow 25% he couldn't sign for more than 50 turn based tables in next 20 days (if he is already on 50+ tables then he couldn't sign to any turn based tables at all, before he finish some tables to get bellow 50).

-If a player reputation goes to 0% and he is excluded on more than 100 tables on "recent games" he couldn't sign at all for any turn based game for 30 days.

The suggestions was mean only to turn based games. And it's only suggestions. It's admins call handle this cases.

Well this may look hard rules but it isn't. Those players are doing something that they can't handle, and everyone else is suffering. It's not really fun, as a game should be.

Thank you

I definitely agree that something has to be done against such players. One can always get unlucky and not able to play due to for example long time illness or something. But those are the exceptions. Most of the players with so many open games and not playing, it's a matter of ruining our fun.

Sorry i didn't found your post before- But anyway It's not comparable. I'm not talking about players excluded 10 times and 30-40 times overtime on last 2 months. What i'm talking is about EXTREME situations of players excluded around 200 times and 1000 times overtime in last 2 months, and that are playing on 200+ and 400+ tables

This are EXTREME situations that need to be solved Fast. Probably 600+ players, maybe 1k (with 3+ players tables) are being affected today by this 2 users. but if we think over a week maybe 3 or 4k players. And this means 1/3 of active BGA players are having bad experience just because of this 2 users.

And there are more that play other games, so probably a lot more are having bad experience. But those 2, play the game I like more, so I can track them easly.

Thank you

I wish that in the matchmaking you could select opponent < X current games to avoid too long waiting time.

I think karma is more important than number of playing tables.
I played with sb who had 200 tables, yet he moves extremely fast, like online almost all day.
Yet sb with only 5 tables never comeback again, maybe (s)he already forgot about this website, lol.

Yeah but not everyone can play in 200 tables fast. Probably 99% of the people can't. And if they karma is 0, and they can still play many tables is because they can't handle so much. So the only solution is force them to play less tables.

Are you sure you aren't playing against a bot?
Karma can be easily recovered by playing a lot of short games.
