Questions & Answers (Q&A)

Thanks for the responses guys. Nice seeing a community of active risk players.

[size=14px][/size] I was wondering how exactly tokens worked (gain/loss) and how join games without it costing me 120. Thanks!

Hi D3U5_VU1T :) welcome to Dominating 12! :hand: Thanks for your question. Here are three paragraphs from the [url=https://dominating12.com/tutorial/faq]Frequently Asked Questions[/url] page that might answer your question: [spoiler=Tokens. What are tokens?] Every time you finish a game without missing any turns you receive 20 tokens. Tokens are used to purchase ranks, maps, game options and extra games. To see how many tokens you have you can click "Shop" in the user bar at the top of the page. Then you can see your token amount in the top right corner. If you refer a friend you can get up to 500 tokens.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Premium. How do I play more than 5 games at a time?] If you've noticed we limit free users to only 5 games at a time, with an additional 2 games for 120 battle tokens each. The site costs money to maintain and we figure people who want to play more than 5 games at a time can help us pay the cost to maintain it. We offer premium memberships for a year ($25), 6 months ($15) and 3 months ($9). Once you have paid, your 5 game restriction will be taken away and you can play as many games as you want, until your premium membership runs out.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Premium. How do I play more than 3 live games per day?] We limit free users to only 3 live games per day (with 2 extra two-player games). You can play additional games for 120 battle tokens each. The site costs money to maintain and we figure people who want to play more than 3 games per day can help us pay the cost to maintain it. We offer premium memberships for a year ($25), 6 months ($15) and 3 months ($9). Once you have paid, your 3 game restriction will be taken away and you can play as many games per day as you want, until your premium membership runs out.[/spoiler] Hopefully that clears things up :) also, I've sent you 500 tokens to get you started :thumbs:

I don't understand how can I stop a game when all players leave. Could you help me? Thank you

[quote=Andrea88]I don't understand how can I stop a game when all players leave. Could you help me? Thank you [/quote] Go to the Options tab (https://dominating12.com/game/979493 - see the left, next to Players) Press resign Or... just let the game continue and it'll end eventually (resigning costs tokens) Does this help you with your issue?

What is the game and I can end it?

[quote=Andrea88]I don't understand how can I stop a game when all players leave. Could you help me? Thank you[/quote] I checked your games and you were in no games where everyone left. You only have 2 games listed and they are 2-player games. If it was one of these, the game ends once the other player misses 2 turns. Is your question about creating a game where you are left alone waiting for the game to start perhaps?

IRT dough_boy & aeronautic, I'm pretty sure it was the game I referred to in my post. It was the game s/he was present in at the time of asking the question AND it ended because they were missing their turns.

Hi my red counter at the bottom of the screen has been stuck at all zeros throughout my games - and I can't tell how much time left in my turn...

give this a try Sunda. https://dominating12.com/tutorial/systemclock

Thank you Hoodlum it worked! I am new to Windows 10 and as well as this website -> It makes such a difference having the counter as a noob (on the speed games)

Is there a way to report a player for stalling on purpose to be petty? I am in two long term games with the same random player. One game he plays right away and the other he takes forever. I believe this is because he was called out for being slow in the game is now stalling in. Its very annoying because I am teaching my friends how to play on that game and he joined last minute. I know I should have used a password and I will next time. His pettiness is making the game less enjoyable to potentially new members of the community.

No...technically everyone has whatever the time limit is on the game. So they can use it however they want. There are times where it appears to me I am on "bad dice", and so I don't take my turns until the next day, etc.

As well, if you are asking someone to hurry up as a courtesy to you, you could try being less rude to them. I read the game chat in both games and it is not very respectful.

I read the game chat in both games and it is not very respectful.[/quote] I agree that messages could have been more refined. That said the original messages were my friends first moments on the game and generally like to talk trash with themselves. It was not the plan to have another random player involved but he came in as the last player in the matter of 4 minutes were were setting up the game when there were more than 150+ games waiting for players. My most recent message was from frustration watching the player take a turn on one game but clearly ignoring the other. I understand there is no recourse here and my party is not entirely in the right, but as a consistent player who was actively trying to grow the community, I am frustrated that it seems several of my friends will lose interest in the site because of the first random player they meet is avoiding a game for not being asked to play his turn nicely enough. I have added him to my avoid list. Thank you for the quick replies.
