How do I open a table to players below a karma threshold?

Post by nicoperror »

I play Catan only, and I remember there was an option to open a table to players above X percentage of karma. How do I open a table the other way around? I want to play only with players below a karma threshold. Like, the worst of the worst.

I don't think there's a way to do what you're requesting. You request does make me think of this video, though.

Now I'm curious, why would you want to do that?

This cannot be done. You can select "no restriction" though, which would allow low Karma players to join.

The OP has some seriously dreadful Karma. 3%, with 24 forfeits in recent games. Perhaps the OP wants to play against similar players, hoping they won't expel him or her from the game?

It was 0% when they posted yesterday. That's hard to do unintentionally.

OP isn't getting expelled, OP is quitting. So maybe players they hope won't mind if they leave the game because the others would do likewise?

That's like someone saying "I'm a criminal so maybe you can tell me a city I can go live where it's only criminals".

It's not really the solution they think it is.

Agreed. It's a very odd and puzzling thread, to be sure.
