Board Game Arena

I just had a rough couple of days at work and IRL and couldnt play that much. I was in some turn-based tables and they mass reported me.

I've been playing here for a long time with 100% reputation and now im 30% it's going to take forever to get back to 65% and be able to play arena.

To be honest I don't see why such a heavy punishment I just wasnt able to play that much over 4-5 days...

I'm sorry that you had to go through a bad week, and then to receive some penalties on top of it.

In the future, you might be able to avoid some of these penalties by using a time joker. Each one adds 4 days of time to your turn-based games (except tournament games). I don't think it works for real-time games. You can find them at the top of the games in progress page.

Just know that above 70, you are perfectly fine.
So it's 40 games to finish.

When u think it's heavy, others think is too light LOL

It's still not great from bga.
If you never leave during 10k games, then are away 4 days and leave 6 games in a row for that extremely rare incident, your karma will became 0.

It's nice if per example you changed your internet connexion and it became extremely bad, and so you leave 6 games cause of it, since it should make you try to find alternatives. But on the case here, it's not the case.

I don't have a good alternative in mind though. Maybe being able to gain 0.1 karma for every game finished above 100? But that doesn't resolve the change of internet connexion case I said here.

Play Can't Stop to recover your reputation. That's what I did when I had a Hiccup with my repuation.

One can set restrictions up to 85% in manual tables. I don't know if tournaments could be even higher.

There are even faster (and non-premium) games you can play and finish.

Thank you all for your answers.

Thank Shivaware, I was definitely stupid. I could have used the time joker I just didn't know about it. *!! Well thank you I know it for the next time

What's the fastest game one can finish?

I don't know that it's the fastest, but Yahtzee (in its many variants) can probably be done in under 10 minutes per game.
