Should I be worried about always being caught against premium players using Home advantage, or will the dice setting be visible in the settings of all said games?

Edit: I got played so hard lol

BGA is only now recognizing the contributions of premium members!

Honestly, these updates should have been implemented earlier

I'm a premium member, and it is RIDICULOUS that I have to roll the same dice as these Free Members.

It is fair that special PREMIUM SERVICES are only provided to PREMIUM MEMBERS.

:D :D :D :mrgreen:
I feel so bad for you... look up what it means to be "Rickrolled".
edit: or did you know that already? i am looking back at this and only just saw the smile emojis

We had to replace it several times with a more random function when some players conducted in-depth analyses without our knowledge.

I WANT the physical model. Especially when I use the desktop in the library!

It would have been funny, if the random number generator would actually work.

One of the MANY reasons I don't like April Fool's Day. Personally, I didn't find it funny. For those that did, I'm happy for you. Really, I am.😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

It's posts like this that show why the joke is so funny in the first place. :lol: There are people that pretend there's an actual issue with the number generator. What issue? Who knows, they just made it up. Apparently it "feels wrong." :lol:

I wish they put half the effort this took into properly implementing undo for SO... MANY... GAMES.
+100 for that. So many games need work. Bug fixing, policy rethinking, developers to put in line so they do work, so many ideas need at least get an answer, and BGA team waste time to make not funny jokes every year.
If you have a decently creative person on staff, these take a day at most. There's not much to it other than wording.

Check out the developer pages. Many games are created by volunteers.
