Arena is working for me, but the "Simple Game" isn't.

A few things about Season 26
6.01 million completed Arena tables, across 997 games.
85.4% of them were played in
real-time.
52% of ranked players appear in one game; 17% appear in five or more.
Most played games by completed Arena tables:
Azul, Ark Nova, Wingspan, Ticket to Ride, Forest Shuffle. These five account for 25% of completed Arena tables.
It is worth noting that
Splendor got a lot of traction over Season 26, rising from 48k during Season 25 to 108k for Season 26.
Gurus discussion and outcomes for Season 27
Formula D, Terraforming Mars, and Heat, attracted the most proposal ratings. Notable outcomes:
- Formula D: qualifying returns.

So this has been an ongoing problem and I think next season something should be done about it. When people are blocking others it shouldnt apply to tables in the arena. Ive seen and heard people blocking others and getting others to then bloack the same person so that they dont get skipped but the person they are blocking does. They also do this when they cant beat someone. By blocking them they bypass them sitting at a table and have a friend join and then they get skipped. If youa re playing in the arena you should have to play everyone that plays. Not pick and choose who you can beat. That defeats the purpoe of the arena. Making red thumbs not apply to arena should apply.This should only apply to arena though and not regular tables. The arena is meant to be best in the world or whatever not blcok who you cant beat beat, beat the others and be number 1 even though you didnt play everyone you should have played!If the problem with heckling and rudeness is still an issue when they are reported for it disable theeir chats. You already do these things they should apply to the arena that way instead. This is a way peope are kingmaking and its not fair tho the other. I know of 2 people who have done this and won the arena since season 20. Not naming names or games
I disagree intention of the original post.
There are people I do not want to play in the Arena because their style of play (while legal and legitimate according to a game's rules) is in my view against the spirit of the game.
These people aren't fun to play with or against. I use the
Red Hand thumbs down to avoid these players.
