Report history
The final scores are 1535 for team red and 1527 for team black, but the game results show 1499 for team red, and thus a loss.
But this is actually not a bug: Klaverjassen rules (as I have always known and implemented them) state that when both teams go over the points limit in the same hand, it is the playing team of that hand that wins - even if the other team has more points total.
So even thought the final *scores* are 1535 vs 1527, the final *game result* is corrected to correctly declare the winning team.
See the explanation above, my assumption is this rule is there to mitigate the fact that statistically, with normal distributions and most played hands just won by the playing team, the starting team always has a small statistical advantage of reaching 1500 points first.
Now, since there is no single source of truth for these kind of century-old public domain card games, I am willing to accept this is just another one of those regional differences (like jokers in the draw pile or not).
Although it is also entirely possible that whoever tought you Klaverjassen just never explained this because it is a very exceptional situation ;)
Someone already started a poll about this in the Klaverjassen forums, but I guess nobody has seen this because it didn't get any feedback.
I will create a new poll later and post about it in the Klaverjassen players group, and see what we get.
Your bug has probably been fixed already, or was linked to a temporary failure of BGA service.
In any case, when filling a bug report, make sure to have an explicit title linked to the incident (ex: with error message), so other players can recognize it and vote for it.
