Hello

Sorry for my English :/ greetings from Poland :)

Tell me please, can I play any game for "try"? I want to now some games on this site but can't find single mode. I can't play multi if I do not know any rules of the game. The manual is not enough.

Hi and welcome on BGA :D

Actually there is no single mode on the site. If you wanna "try" a game you have 2 options
1) Play a game with no ELO points. The game won't count in the statistics, so you can "practice" it.
2) Watch (or rewatch after the end of the match) a game played by someone else. In this way you should see the game and notice how does it works

You might also consider placing a statement like "Learning game" or "Practice game" in the presentation field. This should make it more likely people willing to teach (or at least tolerate) a beginner will join. Additionally, make sure the time is set to a slower than normal speed. Even though ELO may be turned off, time penalties still apply (to the best of my knowledge).
