Board Game Arena

I never used it, so some questions:
1. I have about 100 games in my favourite list, so if i use it, do they find from ALL games?
2. Do auto join open tables?

And is there a faq link, ty

Are you referring to the "Automatic Choice of Opponents" mode on the Play Now page? If so, it only searches for games that you click on, not all games in your favorites. You will be placed at a table that satisfies filters you've set for that game. Once placed at a table you have to accept the game start, so yes you auto "join" an open table, but you don't auto start the game.

ty, exactly what im asking!

so it's like arena, just u can change settings?

Yes, but Arena automatically starts, whereas Automatic, despite the name, doesn't. I will typically wait on 2 or 3 games. When one table starts it removes you from the queue for the others.

ty so much, this can be handy

And I believe it uses the same tables as the manual mode. That is, it will automatically join you to any table(s) opened with your chosen options, or create new tables if none exists. Players in manual mode can join your tables and will see you joining theirs.
