Thanks. I just finished my first match, and my partner and I agreed that after one game, either one of us would just resign as many times as needed for the random selection of the other person to go first. That worked well...in 5 games, I think we only needed one or two resigns.

I'd like a new feature which is an extension of Familiar cards - a "don't play games with x card in them" feature...
I've removed Possession from my familiar cards (it's my only unfamiliar card now!) and set my maximum unfamiliar cards to 0 - but still I regularly get in in games, presumably because I'm playing an opponent with a subscription and that's re-enabling it?
So the familiar card thing doesn't work especially well for that purpose, and I've come to really hate Possession - or at least if I were to play with it I'd have to be in the mood for it...
so, long winded feature request saying - isn't there some way to make it a user-selectable deal-breaker for the game matching process?
Thanks
Tim

I have stumbled across what I think is a bug that in some circumstances allows a player access to information they should not otherwise have. I'm having troubles reproducing it though. Especially with the big online championships coming up this is very concerning to me. I'm hesitant to state exactly what the bug is on a public forum in case someone smarter than me can exploit it (Although it seems quite simple to me!). What should I do?

My opinion:
knowing the opponents hand is not worth much 99% of the game time (contraband and endgame is the 1%). Only a few percentage of ppl cheat. So there is a cheat possibility that only occurs rarely if ever.
On the other hand, a lot of ppl spectate better players to learn, or stream in spectating mode.
So to solve the small issue, you would do harm to a lot of people.
In cases like this, do as little harm as possible - leave it at it is.
Contraband is a very interesting edge case, tho. But in the hypothetical situation that I had to choose, I would rather ban Contraband than SpectatingMode. Reality check: Contraband is the new Scout, so the game wont loose much.
