I have twice been selected as a "guru". This seems to be mainly about Arena mode. I have no interest in Arena mode and therefore nothing to contribute. Is there a way I could exclude myself from being selected as a guru. I am starting to find it annoying.

Why? You don't have to do anything if you don't want.

You become a guru when you are among the top players for a game in terms of quantity.

What time zone is the end of arena mode based on? Is it smart enough to know my local time zone when it displays the end date and time?

Why am I downgraded at Glow?
I was the only player to reach gold league before end of the season and everybody kept his ranking expect me that start at silver 1.
I had already like 10 victories so i guess they don't count anymore...?

Hello,

why we didn't have to accept to start the game in the arena mode? many time I'm not in front of my pc and the other to click to pass my turn... because I have sometimes to wait a lot of time...

It is possible to put to accepte to start the game like simple game?

Добрый день. Как оспорить результат игры - игрок не играл, я несколько раз хотела завершить игру, но в итоге написали что игру закончила я и у меня штраф

I likewise vote to have one or more of the following:
1) a minimum point gain of 1 on an arena win
2) a default setting on all arena games that doesn't pair you with someone more than 2 levels apart from you (this is just bad matchmaking anyway and all those playing arena are playing for points and/or well matched competition, otherwise they'd be playing simple)
3) a feature to accept games in arena as there is in simple games (this actually makes more sense in arena since it's competitive).

Could we get some feedback on the likelihood of any of these being accepted and/or implemented?

Min 1 point gain would be great

Having to accept not some much as people could keep declining until they get an opponent they think they can beat

2) would solve 1) + help with some other issues like better matchmaking or cheating with help of another acount.
3) Table should be anonymous till accepted.
