Card Bugs / Re: Interaction with mission + sprawling castle

« Last post by Stef on 24 June 2017, 12:16:53 pm »

When I played Governor to remodel on my mission turn, my opponent upgraded his opulent castle to a sprawling castle. The game gave me the choice between duchy and 3 estates, and my opponent gained the thing I chose.

Unfortunately I don't have the game number or anything.

Fortunately there is only a need for a game number when the bug report is vague, and this one is perfectly clear.

Same problem as with Inn; I forgot to explicitly specify the owner of the gain-ability, and then it defaults to the active player. Will be fixed in the next release.

Card Bugs / Re: Chariot Race and Debt Cards

« Last post by Stef on 24 June 2017, 12:11:26 pm »

When charriot race is being played and your opponent shows charriot race with a cost of 8 debt it is counting it as worth more then cards with coins in the cost...

Like JW stated, this is implemented correctly. I think the confusing thing here is that "costs more" in Dominion is a bit counter-intuitive for people that haven't been trained in logic reasoning. When you use the phrase "costs more" in real life, you expect one of these sentences to be true:

"A costs more then B"
"B costs more then A"
"A and B cost the same"

But in Dominion (or any other system where the cost has several components) it's quite possible that none of these statements is true.

If I reveal a Silver and you reveal a City Quarter, neither costs more than the other so Chariot Race won't trigger (regardless of which of us has which card on top). Looks like it's being done correctly.

Card Bugs / Chariot Race and Debt Cards

Game #4640338

When charriot race is being played and your opponent shows charriot race with a cost of 8 debt it is counting it as worth more then cards with coins in the cost. It should always be counting cards with coins as worth more then cards wtih only debt and assign +1 VP as stated in the rules below. Also I have included part of the game log.

C plays a Chariot Race.
C reveals a Chariot Race.
C puts a Chariot Race into their hand.
R reveals a City Quarter.
C plays a Chariot Race.
C reveals a City Quarter.
C puts a City Quarter into their hand.
R reveals a City Quarter.

With Debt.png, your card costs more only if both Coin.png and Debt.png amounts are larger, or one is larger and the other the same.
For example Fortune (Coin8.png Debt8.png) costs more than Overlord (Debt8.png), but Overlord does not cost more than Silver, and Silver does not cost more than Overlord.

Scottc, Gengis and Mike ... I assume you experienced this only once?

Only once that I remember.

I played another rude player yesterday; someone greeted me with "f--- you" and then refused to play when I seemed to be winning. Having to sign up for forums and PM someone is a rather obtuse way of dealing with problem players.

General Discussion / F2P Beginner and Expansions

« Last post by 83gu7z on 24 June 2017, 02:29:32 am »

F2P: Free-to-play, having no Dominion subscription

For a F2P player who is familiar with the Base set but have little experience of Expansions games, what is the best way for him/her to learn the Expansions cards? There are so many Expansions cards and I guess players are more likely to learn them by playing rather than just studying the text/wiki. However it also takes time for him/her to know what a card does in a game, which may be treated as "slow rolling". F2P players cannot initiate a bot game with Expansions - the cards will only be from the Base set.

Dear paid players, which one do you play more often, rated or practice games?
If you happen to meet an Expansions beginner (may be very experienced with the Base set but no knowledge in Expansions, or just very very new Dominion player), will you feel frustrated or mad?

Also it should be mandatory to confirm your email before playing automatch game against human player.

I just tested it with new account with fake email address. And I was able to play rated game started by automatch.

In the past, if I do not confirm my email address, I can use the automatch function to play a rated game, but because the system randomly choose a player to be the host, if the one with unconfirmed email address is chosen, both players cannot enter the game. If the chosen player has confirmed the email address, it does not matter if I have confirmed mine and can still play the game.

Hrm, just tried it with a bot in game #4631984 and it worked twice as expected.  Wish I had remembered to write down the game number when it first happened.
