"即时游戏" 指的是什么?

你能够找到很多网站，提供你玩桌上游戏，大部分都是以“回合制”的方式进行：每一步后，你必须等待对手连到网站后，接着完成他们的回合。大多数的时间，你需要在每一回合之间等待很长的时间，游戏也跟着需要一大段时间完成。

在 Board Game Arena 上，你的对手在整个游戏中都是与游戏平台处于连线的状态，他们立刻就能看到你的移动并将讯息回传给他们，有如在真实世界般对局。

这个网站的法律地位是怎么样的?

目前所有在这个网站运行的游戏皆已获得授权或者有版权持有人的许可。请注意，在 BGA 运行的游戏可以因应版权持有人的需要而移除（例如：假设他们发布了游戏的改动）。

Board Game Arena 感谢所有游戏发行商与游戏设计者允许他们的游戏在这里，这个网站因此才可能存在。

我是游戏发行商：为什么我会想要游戏在 Board Game Arena 上?

Board Game Arena 的主要目标是为了让人们更容易的发现并喜爱新游戏。We think that there is only two kinds of players on Board Game Arena: those who already bought the games they are playing online, and those who dream to buy them soon!

As the activity of this website contributes to increasing a game's popularity and thus generates game boxes sales in the "real world", we think it is beneficial to the boardgame community: people from all over the world can play online, we can have fun developing this game platform to the best of our ability, and game publishers get money from the box sales and build a special relationship with their players community.

关于玩家与戏局

我发起了一桌新游戏但没有人加入?

Although Board Game Arena has been enjoying a growing popularity, it is still a young website. For the most popular games, you can find players at any time of the day. For other games, we advise you to come back at peak hour (around 22:00 CEST) if you can't find opponents at the moment.

Tip: check the number of online/available players for a game before launching the table.

我参加了一场游戏。游戏什么时候会开始?

Each table has an administrator, which is the table creator. It is the responsibility of the table administrator to start the game when he is satisfied with the number of players having joined the table.

If you are the table administrator and can't launch the table, most of the time it's because there is not yet enough players around the table for playing this game.

玩家名字后方的小圆点颜色是什么意思?

•  : this player is active. He completed an action very recently.
•  : this player is inactive. He is connected to the website but did not perform any action recently.
•  : this player is offline.

"% 胜率" 的统计意味着什么?

% hits = number of victory points / number of games played

Where number of victory points is the following:

• When you win a 2 players game: 1 point.
• When you win a 3 players game: 1.5 points.
• When you win a 4 players game: 2 points.
• etc.

This way, "50%" means that you win 50% of 2 players game, or 33% of 3 players game, etc.

During the game

What is the meaning of the icons next to players names?

•  : this player must make a move now.
•  : this player must make a move now, and he has spent his reflexion time. Can someone wake him up? ;)
•  : this player must make a move now, but is probably not aware of the fact. If the situation does not evolve, it might be that this player has some connection issue.
•  : this player is a "zombie" (he left the game or has been fired from the game). The game goes on without this player.

When the "normal" avatar of a player is displayed, it means that this player is waiting for his turn to play.

A player has to make a move but he/she doesn't. What can I do?

• First, please remember that this player has the right to think as long as he needs to about is next move... well as long as he still has some time left on the game clock, that is.
• Then you can ask this player to confirm that he is still thinking about how to play.
• If this player seems to be away, we advise you to wait a few minutes: this player may be experiencing some network problems or have left his computer temporarily.
• If the player is not coming back, you can expel him from the game as soon as he is running out of time on the game clock for the current move (red bar) or if he goes over his alloted time to think by more than 3/4/5 minutes (depending on game speed). See Clock section for details. Important: in this case, no ELO points will be won by anybody for this game.

What is the current progression of the game I'm playing?

A percentage of progression is displayed on the top of the web page. There is also a progress bar at the bottom of the web page shows you the current progression of the game.

What is forbidden on Board Game Arena?

• Leaving a game in progress on purpose.
• Thinking an unnecessary and unreasonable amount of time at the end of game in an obvious losing situation.
• Kingmaking: enabling another player to win on purpose while there is a better move to make for yourself.
• Running out of time on the game clock.
• Giving some piece of information about the current game situation that corrupts the normal game flow.
• Communicating with another player about the game privately (ex: with MSN).
• Provocation / triumphalism / defeatism ... anything which is not fair play.
