Played all games on BGA

Post by Spiegel428 »

Last couple of matches are still in progress, but I believe I can already brag that I've played all 395 games on BGA. :D

I play turn-based most of the time, which can be really good for learning. I think that's a real selling point of the site. (On the other hand, all those trick-taking games take forever turn-based, they've all blurred together for me).

Now to try for 100 ELO in as many games as possible. ;)

How many did you get the "first victory" trophy on? That's my challenge ;)

I'm about 100 off doing this, been trying to play 2-3 new ones per day but some of them are really hard to get people for and so many new games enter beta every month (which is a good thing really). Trouble is that I like to understand the game before I move on from it, and that takes a few games sometimes. Congrats on getting it done, is there any achievement for playing through them all? I feel like there should be.

Grats !!! Great accomplishment.

Sometimes I think of trying this myself. Then I remind myself I probably shouldn't, with all the time needed for that.

I got an achievement back in March when there were about 70 games to go, not sure what's up with that.

I think the time commitment depends on how fast you want to achieve it and how well do you want to know each game. If one can keep a laid back attitude, it can be nice as a way of exploring different games without being awfully time consuming.

That is very interesting. I was going to try all the games from with greater than 7 ratings but eventually burned out. Learning new rules is rough for me. I am back on BGA and decided just to play the ones I like more often than trying new ones. There are quite a few newer ones that look quite good though.

In December last year I got the Nobel Prize badge for playing all available games on BGA…

The thing is… I haven’t! Very strange.

At the time I thought it might be doing something like comparing total of released games with released+beta+alpha played.
