But WHY do you want to be able to select players in a geographic region? You keep dodging this question. Is it so that you will all be in similar time zones?

Also, as Jellby said, location is meaningless because BGA can't force people to play under the flag of whatever location they are actually in.

Right i get the point about location ( vpn , travellers … )

Still an option to play with premiums only might be a good option

It doesn't seem like an intuitive idea to give people the option to only play with other premium members. That's not something that would help foster a sense of community on the website.

Choosing players based on their flag is a bit similar, any reason why someone may want to do that doesn't sound like something that would align with the values the site wants to promote.

i get your points but i still thinking it might be a good idea You can disagree i m ok with that at least BGA could edit a form for premiums to vote on it so we ll see the majority thoughts it s the most democratic way

You keep saying it "might" be a good idea, but nobody is going to waste time implementing something that only might be a good idea, especially when it's only one person who thinks it might be a good idea. I encourage you to back up your claims.

I don't know if you've noticed, but this is hardly a democracy. If it were, the Elo changes would have been rolled back.
