Board Game Arena

1) How do I add games to the list of "Games I Know" as this seems to be a list that is used on the Play Now page. I have looked at the FAQ for this and couldn't find the info. I also tried searching but the words in the phrase "Games You Know" are too common and wouldn't return results.

2) What are some other setting that may not be obvious or well-known that you reccomend new users review?

Thanks!

I believe Games You Know is games you've played on BGA. There's no other way to add things to it as far as I know.

Other tips? Well, my biggest one is probably to use Play Now to join your games, but that's more my preference. If you do auto-join games (or play Arena), use the settings under the gear icon - they are better than the settings you can do on joining on the game page (which if you make those settings flexible can put you in all sorts of games you didn't intend).

Yes, "games you know" = "games you've played on BGA". But for the purpose of the "old lobby" (play now), I think the favourites list is more relevant. You can add and remove games from your favourites, or create other lists (which are only shown in the main games page, as far as I know).
