When topdecking a Border Guard with Horn, there is no way to choose which Border Guard to topdeck. This usually doesn't matter, except with Prince. It seems that the system automatically chooses to topdeck the first Border Guard played, which is of course the Princed one and exactly the one you probably didn't want to topdeck.

Building an interface to properly resolve this and related bugs sounds hard. But I think there should be an easy effective fix here: just default to topdecking the last Border Guard instead.

Also remember that your opponent doesn't necessarily know English, in which case it is not easy for them to chat with you.

The opponent also gained a wisp on the previous turn. So in this case you can legally gain nothing from Smugglers by trying to gain a wisp with it (and failing because it is not in the supply).

But Donald X got some percentage of my money at the old site, and he obviously had the ability (when negotiating his deal with Shuffle) to insist that "legacy" lifetime subscriptions be honored.  He chose not to do this, and that was entirely within his rights.  But a lot of us felt some resentment about this decision, and it is--of course--entirely within our rights to remind people of this.  I got the free year, and that is certainly not nothing.  But it was definitely not (IMO) a "fair" offer. 

It seems that DXV actually got almost no money from the old site because you weren't the only one being scammed by the people running it. http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=15162.msg588309#msg588309

To add to what Markus said, if the Band of Misfits is not in play after you finish playing it twice (usually because it is in the trash), it is back to being a Band of Misfits and so Disciple's effect gains a Band of Misfits in this special case.

This is not a bug. It's because you have to follow the instructions on Hamlet in order: First you get to discard for an action, then you get to discard for a buy.

Agreed, a Sauna "never-trash" autoplay would be really nice.

I am really interested in the edge case where that matters!

You don't want to gain anything your opponent played, but you want Smugglers in play for Peddler or HoP or Bonfire or anything else that cares about cards in play.

ok ... how much can a diadem actually be worth?
Anyone bidding more than 677? Maybe with a fancy Black Market Combo?

When I did this exercise in I think January I pulled 1500 something. King your Champions.

Can't you do a Bonfire/Lurker trick to play as many Champions as you want and get Diadem arbitrarily high?

Farmer's Market set aside, but did not function entire game.

Thanks

Farmer's Market trashes itself, at which point it will stop functioning because it is in the trash rather than set aside with Prince.

In general, playing Prince on any card that moves itself somewhere will lead to likely disappointing behavior.

I think you've got the wrong log number. The game you listed doesn't contain Pirate Ship. Or did you mean Ghost Ship?

I disagree.

Do you have any justification for this?

Well, I'm not sure why disregarding player preference would be an improvement. If three people want to play a Masquerade game with the point tracker, why not let them have their fun?

The province trashing bug was supposedly fixed though in Version 1.2.1. This is probably a Remake specific issue?

This is definitely a bug. Clicking a card in your hand should name that card, not its type. Clicking the Ruins pile should almost certainly name the top card of the pile, since there is basically no reason you would ever want to name "Ruins".

At least there is a workaround for now.
