Every action should give back a little time

Post by Ba3henov »

I was just playing a game where I got expelled because I had Freeze Time and my turn was super long. I was obviously about to win with a bunch of extra turns, but one of the players expelled me even though I was performing at least an action per second. Here is the link to the game: https://boardgamearena.com/7/kingoftoky ... =491759236
Here I even have 20 points and was about to win but was expelled last second, even though I was playing as fast as possible. Very frustrating.

Same thing happened again last week 😳
Time stands still, with that change die face to 1 or to whatever for 2 energy. My opponent had 17 points but was never going to get another turn, I just needed some time to buy and sell cards to gain enough energy to change the dice into a bunch of claws and win. I got expelled as soon as I hit the time limit eventhough I was continuously doing actions.

Totally support it!
Also expel must be done on different basis.
For example: if player just had some move, we dont want to cancel the game, but some people prefer points neither play good game.
That must be 100% changed, at least for premium player
if you do the same -> I buy premium for sure

Same issue if you have the witch or cheerleader Halloween Costume. If you and/or your opponent(s) don't have strong internet, the prompt every turn is delayed causing you to extra time without gaining any back until your actual turn comes around.

I'm sorry, but people who run out of time when they have cheerleader are running out of time because they aren't paying attention. I play with it often and am never in jeopardy of my time going to 0.

I think similar things can be said about other examples in this thread, and giving more time per action is just begging for already long games to go even longer. We get a huge time bank in KoT, and it is enough in all circumstances.

Yes, I've had the same thing playing with Alien's evos, buying and selling cards for a profit. And then you get a rude player who keeps clicking expel every 5 seconds.
