A short, plain description of what this site keeps about you. It is a free fan project, not affiliated with Board Game Arena or the publisher of Ark Nova.
An account is a username and a password. There is no email address and no real name. If your username matches a Board Game Arena player, you can copy that player's Elo as your starting rating once; this is not verified, so please only pick your own.
Rated and friendly live games are recorded so that they can be replayed; the record holds the names the players used.
Your username, rating, rated games and mini game scores are public: they appear on your profile and on the leaderboards. Nothing else about you is shown.
There is no email, so a lost password can only be reset with the recovery code shown when you signed up. Keep it somewhere safe. You can delete your account from your profile page: your name, password and sessions are removed and the account becomes "Deleted player"; the games and rating changes it took part in stay, because they are part of other players' history.
Do not use several accounts to move your own rating, and do not pick a username that belongs to somebody else. Accounts that do may be removed.
