1. An offline client, allowing you to play campaigns against bots
Not a big fan of campaigns, so, no, this option is not interesting to me.

2. A bot with a setting for different play styles
Sure, or maybe just a better AI, or a bot who switches strategy from game to game (and no indication as to which strategy the bot will use either)

3. A strong bot.
I'm not a great player so the current bot beats me plenty of times.

4. Options for timed games
Maybe rather reduce the wait time to make the other player forfeit.

5. Options for undo settings
Not an issue for me.

6. Online mini-tournaments; the option to easily create one for you & your friends.
Random mini-tournaments could be cool, although I don't often see enoug people online to fill one. Don't care about friends-only tournaments.

7. Option to invite specific players to your table
Not an issue to me.

8. More translations (to what language?)
Binary. :P

9. Better animations when cards are gained/bought/played/...
Don't really care. Maybe slow down bot animations so I can actually see what's going on and don't have to read the log (or I haven't found the bot speed options...)

10. Better visualization of split piles, Archive/Crypt contents, Prince targets, ...
I don't feel that's an issue.

10. Option to hide the log
As I don't play on small screens, not an issue.

11. Android app (or just improved compatibility?)
Don't care.

12. iPhone app (or just improved compatibility?)
Don't care.

13. Downloadable game logs
Don't care.

14. Improved moderation (dealing with chat abuse, slowplayers, ...)
Don't care.

15. Tutorial on how to play Dominion
Maybe not a tutorial, but perhaps a Dominion "encyclopedia" you can browse that explains some of the new concepts that appear in the new cards of gives rules clarifications. I'm sure this already exists but it would be nice to have it close by

16. Tutorial on how to play dominion online.
I know how to play.

Personally, I think the game is fine. I very much appreciated the free year after the switch. I get that you are a different company using a different pricing model. The gold subscription price isn't outlandish (to me) but would it be possible to offer shorter (1 month, 3 months) subscriptions?

That's it for me.

Thanks for reading and have a good one!

Not all browsers have mute sound. Using Vivaldi and Safari here.

And it doesnt work with my current version of chrome (i mute tab and music still plays)

Support / Waiting on the player from last game
21 March 2017, 02:27:52 AM
After a game with Opponent 1, when I start a new game in which I am facing Opponent 2, it usually says "waiting for Opponent 1". Is this just a glitch or am I really waiting for last game's player to "leave the table" so I can start another game? And if this is the case, why?

And while we're at it, why does it take sometimes several seconds with the message "Waiting for Altamont" when I'm there and obviously ready to play?

Thanks in advance!

Support / Re: Resigning Mid-Game: Rant Warning :p

Eh. I'm a repeat-offender mid-game resigner, mainly because there is no consequence for resigning at the moment. When the scoreboard becomes active, I'm sure we'll be getting less mid-game silent resigns.
