I don't get the sense of the new ordering system BGA uses for showing players achievements.
Games aren't ordered anymore by xp and not by alphabetical or most played.

I think the new system isn't clear but confusing; games with more xp and achievements should be highlighted at the start of the page and the previous system did the job.

Why did you changed it and in which way?
Thanks
Agreed. This is a very confusing change, the new sorting order doesn't make any sense.

Hi,

This is (obviously) a bug and will be fixed soon.

Nice to be able to actually see the trophy images from tournaments again.

I hope it will mean more people will remember to find images to put on for the images.

(I know I forgot for the last tournament I created)

But it makes the achievement area for those games where I've won lots look so much better.

Did I correctly recognize that the amount of XP for top places in the ELO ranking has been significantly reduced? Players who reached high places in the ranking a few weeks ago received more points than players who now get this achievement.

Will there be a subsequent adjustment here?

Hi,

No change here: XP depends on number of active players at the time you win the achievement. So for a recent game, you get less points when reaching a high ELO position early. However, if you go again to the same position when there is more active player, the XP are increased.

This is not true. Unless this bug has been fixed in the past few days. Once you get an achievement there is no way to re-earn it for more xp

I understand the reason for not counting Victories in training/solo mode.

But why are games played in training/solo mode counted as part of your win percentage. If wins aren't credited in training/solo mode then I don't think they should be credited as a loss for your win percentage.

Surely your win percentage should only be calculated on the number of normal games played.

I have not gotten the achievements for playing multiple games at a time. I saw one for 30 games and 100 games, I'm currently playing 104 games.

I didn't get the specialist trophy for 200 games played in Dungeon Twister. Where can I report this? I submitted it as a bug, but no luck there so far.
