Not a bug. Bridge Troll says "while this is in play, costs are -1". There is still only one copy of Bridge Troll in play, so costs are only -1.

What you were trying to do would work with Bridge, though, since it doesn't say "while this is in play". :)

Same thing happens to me.

It was on Windows (10 I think?), and browser was Chrome.

I just played a game in which Watchtower was the Bane for Young Witch. I wanted to turn off Autoplay for the Young Witch so I could trash the curses, but it was difficult to set it to "off". Every time I would click the radio button or the text, the window would just disappear with no changes made. I probably tried at least 20 times before I clicked in just the right place and was able to turn it off.

+1

I concur with this idea.

[1. An offline client, allowing you to play campaigns against bots]

Providing feedback just 'cause. :) I never bought the expansions on MF.

1. An offline client, allowing you to play campaigns against bots

This would be nice. I especially enjoyed the variants that MF had, like start with 10 Feasts, or gain a copper every turn, or the first action you play every turn is played twice, etc.

2. A bot with a setting for different play styles

Could be interesting.

3. A strong bot.

Definitely want this. I greatly prefer playing against humans, but it's nice from time to time to play against the bot. Right now the bot is really bad, so this would be a welcome addition.

4. Options for timed games

I would never play a timed game.

5. Options for undo settings

I think undos should automatically be granted if the game state doesn't visibly change. For example, if you click End Actions too early by mistake, you should be able to undo that without a request.

6. Online mini-tournaments; the option to easily create one for you & your friends.

No preference.

7. Option to invite specific players to your table

No preference.

8. More translations (to what language?)

Don't care about this.

9. Better animations when cards are gained/bought/played/...

This is by FAR the MOST IMPORTANT thing I want to see. I hate not seeing all the animations for things: I want to physically see the card I trashed when I play Swindler, the cards I discard when I play Rebuild, my opponents' hand when they play Hunting Party, the cards I reveal and discard when I play Hunting Party, etc...

I don't like needing the log to see what happens; you should know everything that happens in the game without having to read about it, just like it is in real life.

Another really minor thing that MF did that I thought was a nice touch were all the little animations/jingles that played when certain things happened:
1) Whenever a Gold/Platinum/Province/Colony was gained, there was a little jingle
2) Whenever you gave out curses, there was this purple stuff that went from the card to the curses pile (or something like that, don't remember completely)
3) Whenever you got points from Monument/Goons/Bishop, sparkles moved from the card to where it showed VP.

10. Better visualization of split piles, Archive/Crypt contents, Prince targets, ...

Absolutely. This ties in to #9.

10. Option to hide the log

Yes, but only when the things in #9 are addressed.

11. Android app (or just improved compatibility?)

I don't personally care.

12. iPhone app (or just improved compatibility?)

Would be nice to have, but I usually just play on my computer. The few times I've played on my phone, it's been near impossible.

13. Downloadable game logs

Would be nice to have. Ideally one could load the log into the client and see that game play out.

14. Improved moderation (dealing with chat abuse, slowplayers, ...)

It seems fine to me the way it is; I've hardly ever encountered problems, and if I do, I just blacklist them.

15. Tutorial on how to play Dominion

Obviously I wouldn't use this, but I think this would be a great way to get more people into Dominion.

16. Tutorial on how to play dominion online.

Same as #15.

17. Miscellaneous

Yep, I added another category. These are of course of a much lower priority than #9 and #10 above.

a) I really don't like the streamlining that the game does to make things go faster. For instance, play Remake with a hand of 4 coppers and it automatically trashes 2 coppers for you. I want to physically select the coppers, because sometimes it throws me off that it does it automatically.

b) A really minor thing that would be cool to see would be a way to play the game with your own variants, like the first action card you play each turn is played twice, or gain a copper every turn, etc., which either applies to all players or specific players.

c) Another cool thing, way into the future, would be to be able to make your own Dominion cards and play with them.

[from your hand]

#4 is correct. Both plays happen at the same time, so you choose the order.

Also, you won't throne room that militia, since throne room says to play an action card from your hand twice. The prince'd militia isn't in your hand, so it isn't played twice.

I agree. The same problem exists with Sauno and Avanto (which I just experienced today).

Perhaps if you click on "You may discard a card to receive a Boon", there will be a button where Autoplay Treasures usually is that says to not discard?

Game #10027983, my opponent had requested an undo after playing a Cartographer (I don't remember specifically when the undo was requested), I accepted it, then the log messed up with what was shown for Menagerie:

Turn 12 - rainshifter
r plays a Menagerie.
r reveals 3 Coppers, an Apothecary, an Estate, a Silver and a Gold.    <--- too many cards revealed here
r draws 3 cards.
r plays a Cartographer.
r draws a card.
r looks at 4 cards.
r topdecks 4 cards.

I know that too many cards were revealed because I remember my opponent having 7 cards in hand when playing the Cartographer.

Game #9468081

I have Changeling set to Smart Ask, yet every time I gained a card costing 3 or more, it asked if I wanted to exchange it for a Changeling.

I'm 99% sure it has to do with the Tax event; I just tested it in a game without Tax and it worked fine, then in a game with Tax it messed up.

Every time I have accepted an undo when playing with the Nocturne cards, the display gets messed up. Visually, it looks like it's my turn, but my opponent is still playing as normal.

EDIT: I have attached a screenshot.

[always]

Yeah, the bots aren't all that smart. I had a bot once trash his deck down to Alchemist, Potion, Chapel, and Silver. There's wasn't anything worth 2 coins other than Chapel, so he didn't buy anything for the rest of the game.

And if you want a REALLY easy game, just spam Torturer. They always discard, even if they have moat/watchtower/chapel/etc., and even if the curses are gone.

By far, the funniest thing I've seen is a bot playing Ambassador and returning 2 Provinces to the supply! :)

The developers know about the bad bots. Hopefully they fix them soon...
