Player order

[Adam Badura]

Is there any influence on the player order in game?

We have been setting up many games in Troyes and it seems that player order is never the same as shown on the "table page" (http://boardgamearena.com/#!table?table=<ID>). Can we in any way enforce particular order of players?

No; player order is independent of when players join the game.

The question is, though, why? Why do you want to set player order? In most multi-player games, there is a balancing mechanism for going later.

We play tournaments and each game is already setup randomized but guaranteeing that a player will be on every possible seat in multiple games he plays.

I think offering possibility to fix player order or to have it randomized once the game starts would be a nice improvement.
