Bug Reports / Captain misbehaving
25 March 2024, 02:33:33 PM
My opponent in the game #141797409 on tokyo last evening (US central time) was unable to play a Bounty Hunter using Captain's ability.  The problem was fixed neither by his logging out and logging in again, nor by undoing the play of the Captain and playing it again anew after having logged out and back in.

Disconnect/reconnect is sometimes not at all the player's fault.  There can be a wonky internet node somewhere between the player's machine and the server.  Since forced resignations (esp. on the three player board) hurt the player's rating/ranking, they shouldn't be based on things beyond the player's control.

Just no.

If your strategy can't be put into action until the piles are getting low, it's a lousy strategy for a game with three or more players. The game has a very different feel with more than two players (and I happen to both enjoy it more and to be better at it with three or more players than with two, just as it is).

I agree.  I had an opponent ban Province repeatedly to my mixed annoyance and delight (And, there were not only no cost-lowering cards like Bridge or Highway in play, there weren't even any in the kingdom). 

And while they're at it, they can get Lord R to actually ban a card that costs 5 (say Duchy to make the programming simple) rather than Estate as I observed in the last game I played with a set that seemed so much fun I finished with the bot after my human opponent resigned.

Add to getting Lord R to play Bank and Fortune last, getting "him" to pick at least some card with cost 5 to ban when War Chest is played, instead of picking Estate -- always picking Duchy would make more sense and surely is a single line of code to change.

In the middle of a game I reloaded the page due to some issues that seemed connection related, then after waiting for it to load again, finally clicked on "Cancel and Resign".  This resulted in a flash of a screen with my username and those of my erstwhile opponents, and "Ready", "Spectate" and "Leave Table" buttons, then the same "Cancel and Resign" screen.  Whenever I log in to dominion.games, regardless of what browser or device I use, I get the "Cancel and Resign" screen and clicking on the button gives the same result.

It seems to be something wrong with my account on the dominion.games server, not a problem with cookies or settings on my end, as the problem is browser and device independent.  Please fix it.  I'm paying for a subscription and cannot play because of it.  Very annoying.

In Game #99903785, twice after my opponents played a Fool, the graphic from the last resolved of the three Boons remained on my screen the rest of the game.  You could move them aside, but the more recent of them kept moving back to the center of the screen. Very annoying.

Support / Re: Can't login, buttons do nothing

It's not browser specific.  I have the same problem on Firefox.

Connection Problems / Re: Client performance

In settings you can change the speed of the animations.  It was defaulted to slow, which felt very laggy compared with the old interface.  It's better if you pick a faster speed.

Connection Problems / Re: Login button does not respond

Not only should this be fixed post-haste, but if the effective outage created by not being able to log in lasts a day or more, they should extend all our subscriptions by the length of the outage.

I just posted a thread about the unresponsive log-in button, but it started after an irregular game ending for me, too.

And it's only the log-in button that's unresponsive.  The Sign-up button, language change buttons and full-screen button all work fine.

Connection Problems / Login button does not respond
23 February 2022, 05:19:45 AM
I'm running Firefox on a Mac with OS 10.14.  Everything seemed fine since the update until a game ended and the OK button wouldn't respond.  I reloaded the site and now can't log in because the log in button does nothing.  All the other buttons work, I can change to full-screen or change the language on the log-in page, but I can't log in.

The problem with bajo's suggestion is that forfeiting on time usually happens not because a player left in a huff, but because of a bad connection or, what I like to call "real life getting in the way of playing games," an urgent phone call, the baby needing attention, the huge delivery from Whole Foods or Waitrose (depending on which side of the Pond you're on) arriving an hour early and needing to be put away before the frozen food melts,...

Surely it would not be that hard to have the bots always discard from exile any non-ruin actions, treasures producing more than 1 coin, and night cards stranded there when given the opportunity to do so.

I just finished a 3-player in which the third human bugged out early and by the end, Lord R. had at least seven gold and a silver in exile, having bought them when a Gatekeeper was in play.

Feature Requests / Boons and Hexes
29 June 2020, 03:52:05 AM
Is there a ways to have boons and hexes stop displaying once they resolve (or the player choses not to take use the boon), rather than having to click to get rid of the display?

It's especially annoying when someone plays Fool and runs through the three quickly.  It would be better to see them briefly than have the first one frozen on the screen until the viewing player clicks.  Similarly if someone throws two hexes in quick succession (say by playing two Werewolves in their Night phase).

I think this is a feature request.  If what I'm describing is supposed to be happening already, then it's a bug report instead, affecting Firefox 75.0 running in MacOS 10.14.6.
