Connection Problems / Re: Connection problems

This afternoon I was able to play one game at work.  I tried at home and cannot even get to the lobby.  I can enter username and password, but then get the load screen endlessly.

NON SUBSCRIPTION MODE OF PURCHASE, If I wanted ongoing cost I would play MTG

In that case, I guess you will not be buying ever, since the Subscription mode is how they are doing business.  You don't like it, fine, but frankly, a lot of anger has been generated precisely because Goko/MF was NOT on a subscription basis.  If they had been, the people who had paid Goko/MF to pay wouldn't be mad, unless the price jumped a lot, and the people (like you presumably) who find subscriptions unacceptable would already have quit online Dominion. 

Nobody owes you an online implementation.  It exists because there are people willing to buy.  If you are not one of them, that's ok.  You don't owe ShuffleIt anything either.  In the end you have to decide if what is offered is worth your money.  Just don't expect them to change back to a business model that has already sunk not one but two companies just to satisfy you.

I have plain and simple feedback:

Plain and simple, yes.  Constructive?  Not so much.  If you don't like it, fine, no one should criticize you for your preferences.  If you want things to change, describe the problem and suggest solutions.  If you don't care whether things change or not, stop wasting everyone's time.

And it should also show the empty piles.  Often when reading logs that end on 3-pile, it may not be obvious which piles are empty just by looking at the players' ending decks.

I'm adding two:

5) I also think it is confusing that you can buy something without putting your money in play, (I know it automatically puts money in play, but that isn't obvious to a new person). This is a very nice feature to me, but when playing with newer players they often don't understand the importance of putting money "in play." I worry this will increase this misunderstanding.

6) As well, I think it is confusing that when there is one card left in the supply it doesn't say one.

Most of these things were built in a way that I love them. (as an experienced player) So if some of them could be options that might be best.

There should be an option to disable the buy without playing your money feature.  That confused me (of course I was just watching, not playing) but in order to keep things straight in my head, I'm thinking that I'd always play out my treasures before buying.

Feature Requests / Re: Game timeout/force resign
15 December 2016, 01:06:16 AM
I'm for a timeout against another human, but against bots only, there shouldn't be one.  The bots have infinite patience and if I want to pause midgame to do something, I should be able to.
