== Preguntas generales ==

===¿Qué es Board Game Arena?===

Board Game Arena (BGA) es una plataforma online de juegos de mesa. Con BGA, puedes jugaronline y en tiempo real contra jugadores de todo el mundo. Tenemos disponible una selección de varios juegos de mesa y de cartas. ¡Lo único que necesitas para jugar es tu navegador!

===¿Qué quieres decir con "juego en tiempo real"?===

Puedes encontrar muchas webs dónde jugar a juegos de mesa con una aproximación "por turnos": tras cada movimiento tienes que esperar a que se conecten tus oponentes a la web y hagan su jugada. La mayor parte del tiempo tienes que esperar mucho rato entre jugadas, y las partidas tardan mucho en terminar (si es que alguna vez se terminan).

En Board Game Arena, tus oponentes están conectados a la plataforma de juegso toda la partida, y pueden ver tus jugadas y reaccionar inmediatamente a ellas - como en el mundo real.

===¿Qué necesito para jugar?===

Tu navegador... ¡y ya está!

Board Game Arena no requiere nada mas en tu ordenador. De ese modo puedes jugar ¡desde cualquier ordenador, en cualquier parte en cualquier momento!

Para hacerlo posible, estamos usando las últimas tecnologías disponibles para la web. Esta es la razón por la que deberás jugar con navegadores actualizados para disfrutar de una experiencia BGA óptima (leer mas sobre nuestra [[política de navegador]]).

===¿Cuánto cuesta jugar en BGA?===

Jugar en BGA es gratis.

También puedes optar por ayudarnos haciendo una donación y convirtiéndote en un miembro del [[Board Game Arena club]].

===¿Cuáles son los juegos disponibles en BGA?===

Board Game Arena propone una variada seleccion de juegos de mesa y de cartas, pero se especializa en juegos modernos ("de estilo Europeo") adultos.

[http://es.boardgamearena.com/#!gamelist Ver juegos disponibles].

===¿Qué puedo hacer si tengo un problema con la web?===

La mayoría de los problemas que pueden encontrarse en esta web deberían resolverse sencillamente con refrescar la página (o "F5").

Si experimentas problemas persistentes, puedes visitar la [http://forum.boardgamearena.com/viewforum.php?f=4 sección de bugs del foro], ver si alguien ya ha informado del problema, y añadir un nuevo informe de fallo si no fuera ése el caso. Por favor, tómate un poco de tiempo para describir el fallo que estás informando con detalle para que podamos reproducirlo y arreglarlo rápidamente.

===¿Cuál es el estatus legal de esta web?===

Todos los juegos actualmente disponibles en esta web han sido licenciados o autorizados de algún otro modo por los dueños del copyright. Rogamos sean conscientes de que los juegos disponibles en BGA pueden ser retirados a petición del dueño del copyright (por ejemplo: si publica su propia adaptación del juego).

Board Game Arena querría agradecer a todos los editores y diseñadores de juegos que nos permiten tener sus juegos aquí, posibilitando así la existencia de esta web.

===I'm a game publisher: why would I like to have my game on Board Game Arena?===

The main goal of Board Game Arena is to make it easy for people to discover and love new games. 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.

== Meeting players and starting games ==

===I launched a new table but nobody is joining?===

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.

===I joined a game. When does the game start?===

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.

===What is the meaning of the small color circle next to players names?===

* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/status/online_.png : this player is active. He completed an action very recently.
* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/status/inactive_.png : this player is inactive. He is connected to the website but did not perform any action recently.
* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/status/offline_.png : this player is offline.

== During the game ==

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

* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/layout/active_player.gif : this player must make a move now.
* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/layout/active_player_clockalert.gif : this player must make a move now, and he has spent his reflexion time. Can someone wake him up? ;)
* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/layout/active_player_nonack.gif : 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.
* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/common/zombie.png : 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 loosing 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.
* Having a shocking avatar (no advertisement, no politics, ...)

Going against these rules will affect your reputation.

===What is absolutely forbidden in Board Game Arena?===

* Creating multiple account and playing against oneself.
* Insulting other players in any manner.

Going against these rules can lead to the removal of your account and/or to the blacklisting of your IP.

===What if some player does something wrong?===

Board Game Arena platform has been designed to encourage players to maintain a good behaviour. The reputation system allows you to distinguish between good and bad players. Then, it is up to you to decide whether to start a game with them or not.

If you think some player has had a bad behavior during a game, you can give him a at the end of the game.

If you think some player committed some serious wrongdoing during a game (ex: insult), please report this player to us ("report this player" link from his profile or game result page) so that we can take appropriate measures.

== Preguntas generales ==

===¿Qué es Board Game Arena?===

Board Game Arena (BGA) es una plataforma online de juegos de mesa. Con BGA, puedes jugaronline y en tiempo real contra jugadores de todo el mundo. Tenemos disponible una selección de varios juegos de mesa y de cartas. ¡Lo único que necesitas para jugar es tu navegador!

===¿Qué quieres decir con "juego en tiempo real"?===

Puedes encontrar muchas webs dónde jugar a juegos de mesa con una aproximación "por turnos": tras cada movimiento tienes que esperar a que se conecten tus oponentes a la web y hagan su jugada. La mayor parte del tiempo tienes que esperar mucho rato entre jugadas, y las partidas tardan mucho en terminar (si es que alguna vez se terminan).

En Board Game Arena, tus oponentes están conectados a la plataforma de juegso toda la partida, y pueden ver tus jugadas y reaccionar inmediatamente a ellas - como en el mundo real.

===¿Qué necesito para jugar?===

Tu navegador... ¡y ya está!

Board Game Arena no requiere nada mas en tu ordenador. De ese modo puedes jugar ¡desde cualquier ordenador, en cualquier parte en cualquier momento!

Para hacerlo posible, estamos usando las últimas tecnologías disponibles para la web. Esta es la razón por la que deberás jugar con navegadores actualizados para disfrutar de una experiencia BGA óptima (leer mas sobre nuestra [[política de navegador]]).

===How much does it cost to play on BGA?===

Playing on BGA is free.

You can also choose to help us by making a donation and becoming a [[Board Game Arena club]] member.

===What are the games available on BGA?===

Board Game Arena proposes a various selection of board and card games, but is specialized in modern ("European style") adult games.

[http://en.boardgamearena.com/#!gamlist See available games].

===What can I do if I have an issue with the website?===

Most of the issues one can encounter on this website should be solved with a simple web page refresh (or "F5").

If you experience persistent issues, you can browse the [http://forum.boardgamearena.com/viewforum.php?f=4 bug section in the forum], see if someone already reported the issue, and add a new bug report if that's not the case. Please take some time to describe the bug you are reporting in detail so that we can quickly reproduce and fix it.

===What is the legal status of this website?===

All the games currently available on this site have been licensed or otherwise authorized by copyright holders. Please be aware that games available on BGA can be removed at the copyright holders demand (for example: if they publish their own adaptation of the game).

Board Game Arena would like to thank all game publishers and game designers who allow us to have their games here, thus making it possible for this website to exist.

===I'm a game publisher: why would I like to have my game on Board Game Arena?===

The main goal of Board Game Arena is to make it easy for people to discover and love new games. 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.

== Meeting players and starting games ==

===I launched a new table but nobody is joining?===

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.

===I joined a game. When does the game start?===

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.

===What is the meaning of the small color circle next to players names?===

* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/status/online_.png : this player is active. He completed an action very recently.
* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/status/inactive_.png : this player is inactive. He is connected to the website but did not perform any action recently.
* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/status/offline_.png : this player is offline.

== During the game ==

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

* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/layout/active_player.gif : this player must make a move now.
* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/layout/active_player_clockalert.gif : this player must make a move now, and he has spent his reflexion time. Can someone wake him up? ;)
* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/layout/active_player_nonack.gif : 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.
* http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/common/zombie.png : 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 loosing 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.
* Having a shocking avatar (no advertisement, no politics, ...)

Going against these rules will affect your reputation.

Estaciones es un juego de generar puntos (cristales) eligiendo la combinación correcta de dado y la activación de poderes de las cartas.

El juego empieza cuando los jugadores separan sus 9 cartas en 3 montones de 3 cartas. Los jugadores podrán recuperar un montón al inicio de cada ciclo.

Cada jugador puede elegir un único dado por turno.
Los efectos son los siguientes:

Estrella - aumenta el número máximo de cartas que puede invocar el jugador (máx 15)

Elementos - Gana una energía del elemento mostrado (agua, tierra, aire, fuego)

Números - Gana el número de Cristales indicado por el número

Carta - Roba una carta

Dado con enmarcado - Permite al usuario que transmute energía en cristales (depende de en qué parte del juego se esté)

Puntos - Indican qué tan rápido se desplaza el marcador a través del ciclo de estaciones

También hay un máximo de 3 ayudas que se proporcionan al coste de una deducción de puntos al final del juego. La ayuda costará 5 puntos la primera vez, 7 la segunda y 8 la tercera. Hay 4 tipos de ayudas, que incluyen añadir una estrella, permitir que el usuario transmute este turno con un cristal extra por cada energía transmutada, cambiar 2 energías en cualquier elemento y permitir al usuario elegir una carta de entre 2 (debe usarse con el dado de robar carta).

Al final del juego los puntos se calculan sumando los números de cada carta y el cristal poseído. El jugador con mas puntos de victoria gana.

Nota:
Los usuarios tienen que descartar energía si hay mas energía que espacios disponibles.
Invocar una carta con otra carta superando la limitación de la estrella provocará que se descarte la nueva carta, sin reembolso.
