Board Game Arena

This suggestion is for Tichu. I have recently been told that on another website, *, it was possible for watchers of games to see the cards that a/or all players have, and that they can see how they play their cards. This makes watching more interesting and an option for new or inexperienced players to learn how to play the game. Not everybody watches games so it won't be of any benefit to all people on BGA, but many do.

I understand that watchers can also comment in the chat here, so therefore, something would have to change in that respect to avoid potential problems. Maybe there could be a setting where a person can choose to see all cards and their ability to comment is disabled.

I think it would be very beneficial to allow the option for watchers of games to see the cards of the players. However, I don't know if it is possible and all of the ramifications. Therefore, I make the suggestion here and see what comes of it.

*Moderator edit: please do not refer directly to other boardgame sites

But then a player could see all the cards by a friend's account... Or creating a new user...
