Interface Issues / Sauna-Avanto with Royal Carriage
21 August 2017, 03:16:57 PM
Hi,

When I play Sauna and chain it with an Avanto, if I have a Royal Carriage on mat, then I get two choices for calling the Royal Carriage below the log. The first one is calling RC for Sauna, and the second is for Avanto.
This is what I would expect, but it could be more clear.

cheers,
atakan

ID numbers for recent games are available here: http://dominion.lauxnet.com/scavenger/
This was a bot game, so it was not rated. I think that site only has rated games.

If there is some non-zero probability that an opponent will not choose "force resign" then some subset of users will disconnect rather than resign.
I agree that this can be abused. That's why there should be a cap on total number of adjourned games. If someone who has reached the cap disconnects, they automatically lose. This also provides incentive to finish your games, rather than leaving them in limbo.

I have the feeling that this would be very complicated to implement though.

Restarting a game can be made a lot easier by giving notifications when someone who has an adjourned game with you logs in, or is already logged in when you do. This used to be standard in chess servers, but I did not use those for a long while now. It worked pretty well in my experience.

Adjourning would really only matter if you can reliably reschedule the game with that player, which means open communication.  In most situations, I imagine that if they are not back within, say 10 minutes or so, you will never get to finish that game. [...]
Do you have experience to back this up? In general I would like to finish a game I had started, I assume other people would feel the same.

I'm not against the idea of suspending a game (which I think is a better term than adjourning), I think it can be useful when friends play each other, I just see it as having very limited applications, and doesn't really solve the problem you are describing.

Yes, it would. I do not have to make an opponent resign (or resign myself) when the outcome is not clear. How does it not solve this problem?

I feel uneasy making an opponent resign, when it is not clear who is winning. May I suggest to have the option to adjourn the game, rather than making the opponent resign, so that we can resume later? To prevent abuse, there can be a cap on the number of adjourned games (10 games sounds reasonable to me). In fact having the option to adjourn in general (with opponent's consent? probably one has to count who asked to adjourn to deal with the cap etc.) would be really useful, I think.

I realize this potentially adds a whole level of complexity to matchmaking, but I wanted to throw the idea out there.

Thanks for a great product!

Hi,

The way I read the two events, you will never get Colonnade points since buying an estate is not buying an action. Estate becomes action when it becomes yours, but you cannot buy something that is already yours, so the condition on Colonnade "When you buy an Action card,..." is not satisfied. You are buying a non-action card, which becomes an action card upon you gaining it.

edit: I stand corrected per tufftaeh's message below. There is a rule clarification about Colonnade in the wiki, dealing specifically with this case.

Interface Issues / choosing 0 coin tokens
03 May 2017, 09:09:13 AM
Hi,
When I am playing a game with coin tokens, during buy phase, if I slide the coin token slider to "0 tokens" and click "0 tokens" button, my buy phase immediately ends. I am not sure why this happens, since it does not happen with, e.g.,"1 token" situation. In that case, I simply spend 1 token and my coins increase by 1.

Why do I click "0 tokens"? Out of habit, I guess :)

cheers,
atakan

Other Bugs / registration mail going to gmail spam

Hi,
I am not sure if or where to report it, but I think it is worth mentioning.
Today, I registered on ShuffleIT forums and the verification email went to my gmail account's spam folder. The reason given by Google was
