Is an essay in pain. Straight hour of "OpenID returned incorrect value".

Backspace key used in fields is blocked so entire page clears and goes back one page.

Captcha brutal to read, questions need to be googled for novice and of course resets when page gets refreshed after a failure.

I Quit trying last night and almost quit today when I couldn't even get an email address to contact admins. Help goes to deleted wiki page.

And thats just the issues I found off the top of my head.

GREAT and to post this more questions and unreadable captcha!!!!!!!!

I agree that the registration page needs heavy work. Hopefully those that can access this will change it soon.

Even I had trouble to register as the questions were too difficult and also has a precise typing check.

Seeing as this is not the first time we get complaints, I see merit in that this needs to be looked at.

Could you link me to a thread that shows the settings everyone here uses? I only know a couple of expansions so I would like to learn the rules for online play here without having to learn EVERY expansion and option. Time is a luxury I don't have.

Hello. I'm not 100% sure what you're asking for here but hopefully some of the following links may be of assistance:

JCloisterZone: http://jcloisterzone.com/en/

JCloisterZone FAQ: http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=778

This is what we use to play Carcassonne online. It's used in tournaments and weekly/ friendly games...

We also have a separate forum area here which is dedicated to online play: http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?board=23.0

This is where we arrange matches, competitions and one-off games between ourselves and posts results and screenshots afterwards.

As for the expansions, you can learn most of them by playing the AI opponent(s) through JCloisterZone. You can also look for our CAR document in the downloads section if you'd like a better description of the rules for each expansions.

Hope this helps!

So which are the expansions, you do use? I'm sure, if you want to participate in a game and there is an expansion planned, you are not familiar with, it can be easily skipped, if you ask for it.

Marcassonne - I think you are asking about Forum Settings that everyone uses.

I do not think there's any recommendations; I used the out of the box settings for many months before, receiving all posts on threads I'd replied on.

Is there something in particular you are looking for?

Tom
