Why did BGA put me into an arena game that runs from midnight to 12 PM?

Post by RedAlert39 »

When I enabled "fast turn based" games, I didn't expect 2/3rds of the playing hours to be when I was asleep. Did I miss some config option to tell BGA that I can't play while I'm asleep? Wondering what's I'm meant to do here: https://boardgamearena.com/6/terramysti ... =373919082

If you select Advanced Options in the settings for that game, there's a setting for playing times when you can set what hours you want to be available for. I think 12-12 is set to non-preferred or reluctant by default, you probably want it as never (along with any other times that don't suit).

These are my preferences, looks like they weren't honored:

Maybe that's too much time to block off? It looks like you have 16 hours blocked off. That's 2/3rds of the day.

Even if that were the case, it's absurd to place me in a game I've said I can't play instead of just not placing me in a game at all.
