Re: How to swap the new design with the old one

Thank you @CoreySteel for taking the time to make this, I'm glad I'm not the only one incredulous at the new design, and now the outrageous response from BGA.

Sadly, as I'm in the UK, imgur no longer works as freely accessible - would you consider finding a different/an additional hosting site? I appreciate that this is extra work, so understand if you'd prefer not to.

Thought you'd get a chuckle out of how it looks for me:

That's funny. Still better than new design :lol: :lol:

I think Imgbb is still available for the UK, right?
If yes, here are the alternative links:

I seriously don't understand how this is such and easy change for you to have made, which makes the game infinitely better from a playability standpoint, and the idea of a player option to set a preference for card style is said to be a total "no go". Blows my mind.

Thanks for this however. Makes the game playable again for me.

You're a genius, thank you so much! Also, the x2 error (because yes, it's an illogical error according to the rules and not just a simple design change) in the new version doesn't seem to bother the developers, so I obviously choose your option. MERCI !!!

Because "no go" is clearly not the technical one :)
