Difference between "Titles played" and search of games played

Post by Neep »

I was just looking on the main page at the number of titles I've played (108). I clicked on the link which took me to the game titles search page, but that page only shows 107 games. Does anyone have ideas as to what might be causing the difference? Has BGA lost games over the years, or is there a bug in either the search or the total?

Thanks,
Mike

Yes. "Insert" and "Dominion" off the top of my head.

Thanks for the reply. I know I've played Dominion online, but I'm not sure if it was here. Looking at insert on BGG, it didn't look familiar.

Does anyone know if there is a list of "retired" games?

Once Rio Grande Games made its own site for Dominion, it was taken off here.

That's not surprising. It was never very popular here except when it was first released. And its successor "Donuts" (another skin of the same game) is also not widely played.

Nothing official. There is a thread discussing deleted games here.

I figured it out. The thread you shared mentioned Apocalypse at the Zoo of Carson City, which went back to Alpha due to using some outdated code.
