I'm seeing some people are being able to play Point Salad in Normal Mode but it doesn't allow you to create in that mode. How is this possible? Was a real time game, not a turn based one.

This game has gone back to alpha, as announced on 14th november: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewto ... 06#p126106

I thought if you find people playing in normal mode, they might have started it before this change. But this is not true for example for this game, which started today: https://boardgamearena.com/2/pointsalad?table=327322338

So I am also puzzled like you how this is possible. I still can't start a game of Point Salad in normal mode. Is there a "private beta"?

That was the very game I saw (My daughter is one of the players). Not sure how it happened

It's turn based now (3 turns per day). Maybe that changed it to normal mode?
