Board Game Arena

I was hoping to soon earn a 100 ELO badge for this game but noticed there is no longer a rating next to my name.

There is. You're Apprentice: https://boardgamearena.com/player?id=85 ... n=prestige

I wondered about that too. All co-operative games say "ranking disabled" next to the game history. That makes it sound like ELO is not being counted for a game like Pandemic

If there are ranks there must still be ELO count too. I saw it twice by hoovering over my rank under "favorite games" but It seems to show up only randomly Does anyone know where it can be seen nowadays?

I guess its a default rule that the ELO system is disabled for cooperative games? Its a shame because it is still tracked in rank evolution and occasionally you can see your ELO when hoovering over your rank icon so why not make it visible for players who would like to have extra challenge trying to reach higher rank? Are there even badges for reaching a rank in this specific game? I did not get the "regular player" badge after reaching 100 ELO. Its a bit disappointing and I fail to see the reason behind it Otherwise the game development is perfect. Fantastic adaptation

The reason behind this was toxic behaviour of players in cooperative games. There are other threads around this. From what I read elsewhere it might have helped a bit, so while certainly sad and not an elegant solution, it may solve something to some degree.

My Elo does not change from Aprentice no matter how many games I play, so I can’t join games with better player requirements. Can this be fixed?

You need to play (and win) games with difficulty (5 or 6 epi, not 4)
