Hello,
I'd like to share a little frustration with you: shouldn't the BGA review the conditions for accessing the arena, no longer basing them on ELO, which I repeat is still a very, very poor indicator of skill, but on the number of games played or the winning percentage?
When you play in an arena you expect to play with people who know the game pretty well and sometimes beginners or players with little experience find themselves in the game and that's fun for no-one...
In short, if you've been playing tichu for 3 days, and by chance you've won 4 of your 5 games (your elo is high, which means you can use the arena just as easily), please play a bit more in normal mode...
It seems to me that this applies to all team games...
