Board Game Arena

Dear players,
As some of you may have noticed, last Wednesday’s scheduled maintenance did not go as planned, due to some unexpected technical issues.
 
We will therefore attempt the update again this Wednesday, June 25, 2025, starting at 9:00 AM (Paris time, UTC+2).
This maintenance is intended to improve our infrastructure and database performance (nothing exciting, but it helps everything run smoothly! ).
You will not be able to open a table a few minutes before.
We will do our best to keep the downtime as short as possible, and we estimate it will last around one hour.
While you wait, why not:
 

• enjoy a nice coffee or tea,
• read the rules of a game you haven’t tried yet,
• or plan your next gaming session with friends?

 
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
We’ll be back online soon – better than ever!
 
See you soon on BGA,
The Board Game Arena Team

In the PICTURE the maintenance date is TUESDAY 24.6
in TEXT the maintenance Date is WEDNESDAY 25.6
Which Date is correct? The one in the picture or the one in the description/text?

A "tongue" should be added to the mascot's mouth. Like it is right now, it looks like a big potato nose

Much appreciated on the heads up (rather than it being a surprise). I appreciate all that the BGA devs and mods do.

You should use the international standard ISO8601 as the date format.
They would make the date extremely easy to read and adapt for everyone around the world.

2025-06-25 07:00 UTC+0

You're in UTC+10? 7+10 = 17
You're in UTC+2? 7+2 = 9
You're in UTC-5? 7-5 = 2
You're in UTC-10? 7-10 = -3 (+24 = 21 previous day)

This gives Dungeon Crawler Carl vibes

Can't wait to try out this new game called Planned Maintenance...
