Casual players like me tend to be cool with undo. It would be fantastic if the matching could include a setting - something like "forbid undo" which would allow the hardcore folks to go at it. The problem is that you never know what kind of person you are playing against, and it really spoils the mood when someone takes the game too seriously. Especially when there is an obvious mis-click that doesn't impart new information.

There will always be folks that abuse undo, so I think it's important to allow for the denial. But some light screening in the matching algorithm might prevent a lot of games where people come in with completely different views on what they want out of the game.

In reading all of these responses, particularly from DominionTroll, I'm struck by the fact that so many people seem to lose sight of the fact this is a GAME. It is supposed to be recreational, something that makes us all feel good, and to be a respite from our real lives. It's too bad there isn't a way for those of us who are more casual to have a way to find each other on the site. For example, for those folks who want to ban "undo" perhaps that is something folks can add to their profile and it could be a matching setting.

DominionTroll - you should really reconsider your life choices if you need to resort to tearing people down on an online game just so you might have a better chance of winning. Also, please post your gaming handle so I can pre-emptively blacklist you. Personally I never want to encounter you in the game.

Has anyone else noticed a huge uptick in trolls on the site? I've been the subject of unsolicited hate comments from the last two people I played against. It started with denying an undo, and then just devolved into unprofessional trash talk. I think this undermines the spirit of the game.

How does one report these users? And is there a list of them somewhere on this forum so I can preventively blacklist folks? I am just on this site to have fun, not be subject to juvenile vitriol and hatred.

Is anyone else having trouble with the Dominion portal? I am getting an error saying the Server Connection was closed or could not be established.

Oh, let me clarify. I understand that I lose the game, but I'm more concerned about the effect it will have on my player rating.

Hello, sometimes when a table launches, the card layout is just not to my liking (for example, Grand Market basically blows up the game these days). Do I still lose the game if I resign before clicking "Start Game"? If so, please consider changing that policy because I think there are legitimate reasons why someone might want to back out of a game based on the card layout.
