Games not in BGA Studio

Post by Jellby »

I was looking for the code for a couple of already published games, hoping to be able to fix a couple of bugs/issues, but can't find the games either in https://studio.boardgamearena.com/projects or in https://en.doc.boardgamearena.com/BGA_Code_Sharing

The games are:
KQJ (old game)
Blaze (relatively new game)

Is there no possibility of looking at their code and updating it?

Some really old games exist outside of BGA studio.
If a relatively new game is missing, probably the projest doesn't have a valid BGG id (regardless of actual BGA entry).
You have to request the access to the BGA admin in charge.

And how to find who is the BGA admin in charge?

I fixed some bugs with Troyes and added an undo button, care of the 'bounty hunting' feature.
I sent about 5 emails and raised several tickets, no response either. I think I did this back in August last year.

The lights are on, but nobody's home.

If it doesn't work contact Jurica via Discord (do both again if you receive no answer after that too)

But that's not the official way to contact them.

I'm guessing they made a new ticket system for a reason.

Should we really be stalking them around the web?

Be it official or not I do so if ticket system fails me (and it works pretty good). I don't send direct messages every time.

If you log a ticket and there is no response for two weeks, then a follow-up email/PM is appropriate imo
