Arena Season 4 - let's start!
Congratulations to every winners of Season 3!
** ## Season 4 is NOW launched. **
During last season, we introduced new rules, especially on turn-based Arena. We also recently improved a lot of things in the Arena UX. Season by season, we will continue to improve Arena little by little, so please don't hesitate to post your feedback!
New rules for Turn-based Arena
Following your feedback and to avoid Arena ranking cheating, we established new rules:
-
For Arena turn-based game, for a given game, you are now forced to play on the table where it's your turn for the longest time. Example: if you have 2 Carcassonne games, you can't play on the game where it's you turn for 5 minutes before playing on the other one it's your turn for 5 hours.
-
You cannot start a Arena realtime game if you have a turn based game with the same game in progress where it is your turn to play.
-
At the end of the season, all turn based games will be stopped, and the player who consumed the most time will lost the game (all the opponents will be winners).
-
5 days before the end of the Season, this is not possible to create new turn-based table anymore.
Note: these changes have been made following a huge discussion with you to find the best way to address turn based Arena (read viewtopic.php?f=3&t=17703 for details). We'd like to thank all of you that help us to make this solution possible!
Arena interface improvements
[*] The Season number and end date of current season is now clearly displayed on the Arena lobby.
[*] Arena hall of fame: you can now access all the stats, rankings and results for current and past seasons, for all games.
[*] Your latest Arena results have been integrated to each game page.
Important: recent games are not concerned by the end of this season
All games published (= out of Beta) less than 1 month before the end of a season are not concerned by the end of the season (no trophies, no relegation).
** It's up to you to find the way of the elite!
**
May the odds be ever in your favor!
