Three tier is the way going forward - Chatroom concerns
Ok.... so i had played and experienced both the local and national sides and what i can say?
three tier system is the way going forward.
1) Local - Personal settlement marker, resource spread & settlement VP scoring for their cell
2) Regional - Chatrooms
3) Global & all VP scores
—-
Why National/Large Regional scale is better for chatrooms
Firstly - Less likely to fell on deaf ears, especially those out in rural areas. & secondly - community grows better if on that scale as we have seen in the last 2 seasons
—
please reconsider the structure for the chatrooms....@CATANdominik @CATANFiona

Re: Game Update 1.41.3 – Release Notes
The ultra zoom out might be cool if the scoring regions show so you have a better sense of which factions are winning in the large view. Otherwise it currently serves no function.

Re: Poll: Do you prefer National Competitions or Local Competitions? (again)
SERIOUSLY?!?!?! Just why this poll was even made again?!
Cant you guys plan for a three tier system?
Global, Large regional, Small local
out of the 3 tiers, global is the most useless and doesnt really,offer anything apart from eyeCandy.
Only one advantage i loved from the Large Regionals were the chatrooms
Small locals has the most advantages since it can provide the resource spread variety, and the territorial playstyles.
This poll... just why - Seriously.....You guys got heaps of feedback from the last 2 months and you decide to ask us again? Many of our feelings are still the same.
perhaps, reconsider the three tier system or ditch global.... @CATANdominik, @CATANFiona.

Poll: Do you prefer National Competitions or Local Competitions? (again)
Greetings Explorers,
Now that we have had two seasons with National Competitions and have reverted back to Local Competitions, we’d love to hear if your feedback has changed. We know that we have asked something similar in a poll before, but we wanted to check back in after two seasons of National Competitions to give you another chance to voice your opinions.
As a reminder, National Competitions created one region per country, rather than smaller local regions created by Local Competitions. Please take the poll below and leave your feedback in the comments!

Re: Mayor Awards / Ruined Settlements / Solutions
Ok i completely disagree with any cap on major rewards. I use totem cards and upgrade settlement cards to win major in non cultivated settlements.
That is because i am overly polite on this matter.
Yet i really don't care about folks "mucking up" settlements with markets and such any more. It means i can dump my 2nd tier and 1st tier buildings.
Folks got to put the effort in to get the perfect settlement placement in their settlements of choice. And just let go the perfection on others.
Folks you don't own the settlements (just like you don't own the portals)
Every season i have had multiple best build ideas for settlements. There's no best build!!!
Folks with tier 1 buildings only should be able to place what ever they want on the stars and should be given the freedom to grow in their understanding about how they want to contribute without people with more building unlocked getting huffy.
*ok i have complained about marketeering of the star tiles in the past. Wind will attest. But to be frank i don't own the board. Yes I'll play first day to get the settlements near me just right for my game style. But i'm done with controlling the play of others.
Dice throws: Erratic when throwing
While there is another dice throwing bug I believe that is a seperate bug as it relates to sending dice into space. This bug has only appeared recently and relates to the action of throwing the dice.
When throwing dice in settlements and mini-games (not noticed in daily dice) the dice can behave erraticly and do one of 3 things:
- Behave normally: so a predictable speed/distance on the screen tends to get a predictable result.
- Behave super charged: so a gentle roll is equal to a super powered throw across the entire screen. Can even result in throwing into the water on the giant maps with only moderate rolls.
- Behave sluggishly: so a gentle roll barely goes anywhere and drops into the water in front of the board. Or just goes only 1/2 the distance one was expecting.
I have not yet found any predictability in the throws since this started to occur (around the start of the season). Playing multi dice minigames with a similar action can get 2 extremely different results. This makes aiming whether for settlement gold coin or any specific hex in the minigames extremely difficult and frustrating.

Golden Settlement's Tavern "on-tap" feature not working.
Hey, newbie here so the solution might be obvious but I just can't see it.
I placed a Tavern in my Golden Settlement a few days ago but I haven't been able to figure out how to claim the promised benefits from it. I've seen screenshots of other "On Tap" cards that have timers above them but mine doesn't have that and the only thing that happens when I tap it is I get the upgrade screen as per the image below.
