I spent 104 games to make my alt account expert level

Post by stanning »

I have another wingspan expert account (elo 550+). However, I gain skill while playing so the win rate is not really as high.
Therefore, I started an alt account to try going for wingspan expert again.
I mainly played on Arena mode because I would like to reduce luck factor(although at one point I was very unlucky and lose a lot of games in a row).

Here is the stat after I played 104 games:
104 Games
80 Victories
78% wins

On game stat, as I only played wingspan, so it helped me aggregated without buying premium lol
Average score: 92.1
ELO points won: 545

I think I tied once and quit game twice when I had some emergency. But seems like 80% win rate is more or less a wingspan expert level player can get. (1v1 mode).

Thinking should I try out the same experiment with 3p mode but I guess it will take way longer.
I would appreciate if the game can offer stat like last 100 matches stat.

This kind of thing ruins the website for everyone else. Can you have multiple accounts? :|

Probably not. I found this: https://boardgamearena.com/doc/multipleaccounts

That page expressly says at the bottom: "This page comes from BGA wiki, and has been written by BGA players community. Feel free to edit it!" In other words, that page itself is not a formal statement of BGA's position. It is only BGA players' interpretation of what they think BGA's position is.

One thing that is uncontroversial: you cannot control multiple accounts to play against each other to boost one of them. There is no indication that the OP did this. I've yet to see any evidence of anyone ever being punished merely for having multiple accounts, notwithstanding what you may find in the Terms of Use, Terms of Service, FAQ, or other source.

I've now seen one instance of someone being punished merely for having multiple accounts playing in non-Friendly mode.

This experiment gives me hope that it may truly be possible to intentionally win at Wingspan … because for me to date, it seems difficult. True … I don’t have 104 games played yet, but I’m still waiting for the learning to start.

FWIW - it doesn’t seem to me you were doing anything nefarious. I’d ignore all this account feedback noise.
