What do you think is great about bga

[yodamus]

Time for a different more happy thread...tell us you think are some of the better things about bga. Here are some of mine:

Free board game playing. Without a doubt #1.
Instant setup for all games
Banker for all games
Very hard to cheat at games
Games lead you thru your turns
Games for all ages where kids can really improve thier math and reading skills just by playing board games
Elo
Choose strength of opponents
Tournaments
Way to get free premium
Anti dementia (for me. My brain has improved dramatically in last 3 years of playing. )

For now all I can think of. Please add. There can be things great about the site that others don't know about.

Be happy. Have fun playing. No money involved should make for stress free playing.

Thank you for this great idea!

Here are mine, without ranking:

• Play online at any time

• Play most of the games for free

• Learn new games

• Playtesting, so I can make a good decision, if I may or may not buy a physical copy of the game

• Get new friends all around the world

• Practise my language skills

• Help other people (e. g. by answering forum posts or bug reports, translating for BGA, testing games)

• Get help from the community (mostly by the forums)

• Get knowlewdge of a wide range of opinions, thoughts and behaviours in order to expand my perspective

Have to say you are one of the best in the community for this. There are 3 or 4 people always in the forums helping people and you are certainly one of them

Be able to play games at any time

Great value for money ... I have been a premium member for 5 years

Good variety of games

[AutumnCamel]

Everything above plus easy match making and the huge selection of games.

[FrankJones]

1) move-by-move replay of any game.
2) The dedication of the (mostly volunteer) staff to do a great job maintaining the site and respond quickly to bug reports.

And all the other things people mentioned already.
