Thank you guys for the hard work!

I really like everything about this site, and yes - some time ago I bought physical copy of my favorite board game which I discovered on this site - Through the ages. I also gifted some games as presents, so it's definitely working as a way to promote these games ;)

Not as a "released" games.

We do not publish games without giving the chance to the community to test them as Beta, so most games that are going to be released are Betas now.

I think the miscommunication was that these felt like 31 games we wouldn’t have seen on the site yet but Betas are like the third category under the games tab and many of us check it daily to see what’s new. No reason for us to be ungrateful, but the announcement may have given us excitement that something from the “most requested” like Agricola or Castles of Burgundy was going to get snuck in here. Something we’ve never seen or heard is coming.

I think you can see this by the number of people posting that they are hopeful for a top 10 bgg game or dominion or pandemic. This is absolutely a cool fun idea but users who scour your site thought it was something a little different is all.

I agree that the communication did come across that way. I would be more interested in Alphas becoming Betas than Betas becoming officially released
