Feel free to add any suitable games that you think are worth playing. Tournaments are generally two-player - we can do 3+ player ones, but should probably be wary about those with a lot of short turns, as they'll take a while spread across timezones.

BlogNomic Random Tournaments

Starting in August 2023, BlogNomic is playing a number of tournaments of randomly selected two-player games from the BGA collection.

Ground rules for those tournaments are (and by all means propose amendments on Discord):

  • Each tournament is a random game from the page at https://boardgamearena.com/gamelist?specificTag=30
  • On selecting the game, if anyone immediately says they've played it, they can choose to veto and force a reroll
  • Tournament then opens: players can only join the tournament if they have never played the game before
  • Players are only allowed to read the game's rules: they cannot read up on strategy tips, or play any practice games
  • First tournament was Single Elimination, but Swiss might be better in future

Would be good to extract a canonical list of games so that we can veto in advance, but I'm not seeing an immediately obvious way to scrape that data out of BGA's web pages.
