Game length option.

Post by Wreckage »

We are having competitions with 4-5 tables of players. It would be helpful if we could compare player's scores from different tables. Right now this is impossible because one game might last 2 rounds, while another lasts 5 rounds, giving a huge advantage to the players who played a shorter game.

My suggestion is that we could have a game option to set the number of rounds to be played in a game instead of playing to 66 points. As I have stated before, this is allowed in the official rules.

I think this is an excellent option that would mitigate several potential issues in the current play.

I posted this idea again in "suggestions". I would delete this post from here, but I must have waited an hour or two too long and the option is gone.

Not a problem, but the biggest thing that's missing is the vote:

If you have a specific suggestion to make and want people to be able to vote for it, you can add an entry in our "Bug and suggestions" feedback system with the "Suggestion" category.

And, so far in reading this thread, I have no idea what suggestion ID it is. Being lazy, I am not going to search through all the suggestions myself to upvote it. If only a link had been posted....

There is a suggestion for it here: https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=17059 (the one Wreckage posted is a duplicate)

I like the suggestion, but judging from the list there doesn't seem to be a lot of development going on.
