Board Game Arena

Is anyone else unable to get Arena games started because the adjustments from 2022 are no longer supported? Is this just me? Do I need to somehow change arena setting?

Yes, same issue here, at least for real time games.

What is the symptom that you see when you say "unable to play arena"?
There is this one player who gave a lot of red thumbs to good players. Whenever he starts an arena table, only players who are not on his red thumb list can join his table or start a new one. For everyone else it looks like you cannot start a table. I once saw the arena being blocked by more than 30 min by this.
There was a post about this a few months ago. That player is very high up in the current arena ranking. You might have won against him/her in the past and got red thumbed for that......

Yes. I tried reporting it as a bug, but I don't think it worked

I received the same error message - Unexpected error: This option can no longer be used (remains for backward compatibiolity), use Adjustment Civilization Pack

looks like you cannot start any table with the experimental adjustments. They turned that option off. It is listed but when you select it you get an error message

icealot's bug report did work - it is report no. 191804, if everyone could take a moment to go vote for it, that would likely be helpful.

Could you please explain how to do that? I would be happy to vote!
