This Italian guy, The Jack, is trying to abuse arena rule to get higher rank by turn-based arena match. Everyone knows what he wanna do by knowing his conditions of all turn-based games of arena mode.

I'm experiencing the same situation.
The Jack has 25 ongoing turn-based games and many of them are stopped just 1 or 2 tiles away from the end of the game in order for him not to lose points on the ranking.
Examples:
https://boardgamearena.com/1/carcassonn ... =114647559
https://boardgamearena.com/1/carcassonn ... =114857100
https://boardgamearena.com/1/carcassonn ... =114840912
and so on...
That's totally unethical and against the spirit of the game.
Furthermore it looks like he is using time extensions in order to hold till the ranking ends on the 5th of October.
Such a disgrace!
NB: Situation solved. I guess this message on the forum helped !

Given that you've named and shamed him, you should probably now update your post to reflect that he did complete the game against you before the end of the Arena season.
Same goes for defdean.

He was showing his intention to stall turn-based arena games and refusing to put his last piece (according to his messages in chat room). Maybe he could just explain why he used time joker on his every incoming lost games.

No, it’s bad sportsmanship and highlighted a loophole in the rules, which I’m pleased to say has been closed for the new Arena season.
