General Discussion / Re: A bit of support

Positive. I was playing on my iPad against a bot. But I got frustrated by not being able to right-click the cards. I didn't quit out or resign the game, but my iPad went to sleep. Then I logged in on my computer hoping to start a new game. To my surprise I was put right in the middle of my game I left on the iPad. This was super cool.

Feature Requests / Spectator Requests

Spectator View is awesome. I remember starting to watch Twitch streams when I knew less about the cards and having to have the wiki open to read the card text any time I forgot and this makes that so much easier. Here are a few suggestions I have. Some of them may be WAY too difficult to implement and they should be pretty low on the priority list but I wanted to get my thoughts out before I forgot them.


  • Ability to switch between player perspectives. Not sure if it is better to do it the MF way where the player perspective changes each turn automatically or just have a switch that allows me to toggle, but you definitely can see the player's cards at the bottom better than at the top so it would be cool if I was watching Stef play against Lord Rattington to make sure I was watching Stef on the bottom.
  • Allow an audio feed of the players. I can imagine this is too tough to implement, but if you do it you have to have 2 options: Either the players can hear each other, or only the spectators can hear the players. If the latter you would need a switch to choose which player you want to hear since the players wouldn't know they are talking over each other. I'm imagining how cool it could be if you could do this while watching a game.
  • Let spectator mode stop my computer from going to screensaver. I was watching a game last night and the computer went to screensaver because I didn't move my mouse around. When watching video through a browser through youtube or something else, this is somehow prevented. Maybe have this as an option for the spectator.

totally agree with wero's suggestion here. have both buttons 'Exchange' and 'Keep' and when you click one it becomes highlighted. This would be way clearer.

Self explanatory.

Another recommendation:

Stack cards when looking through discard with harbinger.

Interface Issues / keyboard bug on ipad
12 December 2016, 08:08:15 PM
Using an iPad 4th generation with Chrome. Was playing a game and used the command "/undo 2". In order to do this I have to type in the message window. On a tablet this causes the digital keyboard to pop up. However, once I hit return, the undo effect works just fine, but the keyboard disappears. If I click the button to drop the keyboard (lower right-hand most button on an ipad) then every time I click anywhere (not just in the message box) the keyboard pops up again. This stops happening once I click on the message box and then, click somewhere else. This only happens when I use /undo commands. It doesn't happen when sending other chat commands through the iPad.

Hope that was clear enough.

First requests after a couple games:

  • Endgame points tally - now you have three columns: Card, #, description. I think you can change "Card" to "Source" so it could include VP Tokens and Landmarks. VP tokens as a description seems awkward.

  • You lack a '1' in the stacks or piles of cards when only one is left. I have seen suggestions to fix this in supply piles, but I think it should be fixed everywhere. I don't see the down-side of having a '1' for cards in hand or for my decksize, so I would just keep the '1' everywhere.

  • I find MF's Pawn interface with checkboxes better than what you have. It takes less room to just have 4 choices to pick two from rather than a bunch of other choices.

  • "Profit" as a Miser description seems kind of unclear. +X Coin Symbol seems way clearer.

  • When implementing the undo thing, I think you should fade out everything except for the log and have to press cancel if you don't want to undo anything.

  • On the standard treasures/victory card supply piles you should include the symbol and amount in the middle of the card. Right now you have the amount and symbol on the lower right hand side of the card for victory points and nothing on the treasure cards.

  • Teacher tokens: I would put for +1coin and +1card I would use the little coin and card symbols. +1 Buy and Action can still just be +B and +A since there isn't really a symbol for that.

  • In spectator mode it says "waiting for player to play" I'm not sure that makes sense. We aren't really waiting if we are spectating. Maybe replace this with "Player's Turn" or something and when someone is reacting to an attack or something you can add "Player is reacting" When playing, "waiting" makes more sense since you are waiting before you can do something.

  • If you are going to move the supply cards down (I actually really prefer when they don't move, so I am using that setting) Then I think you should not make those cards upside down.

  • Need an option to turn off chat sounds.

  • Need to have the "big cards" view, where we can see the full kingdom and all the cards/events/landmarks (make split/mixed piles just a clickable single card) with their full texts. For players new to the game, this is essential.

  • I don't think I like the text "Autoplay Treasures" To me, autoplaying is like what SCSN's patch did. I understand "Play All Treasures" is misleading because it's not going to play Bank, Horn, etc. It seems clunky but maybe it's best to just have the button be "Play all Copper, Silver, Gold" and add Alt-Treasure to that list if it playing order makes no difference and remove "copper" if Grand Market is out and they can get to 6 without it. Not sure how long that list can get in the worst Black Market case.

  • To be honest, I don't think I like the ability to buy cards without having played your treasure cards. I think it doesn't add much and can mess people up when they have multiple buys and are used to buying cards this way.

  • 'Debt' button should be 'Pay off debt'

  • Wishing Well Stuff: I don't think the 'Plus' icon should be there when you make a wish. Use the white borders to make the cards clickable, but I think the 'Plus' should only be in there when clicking would result in gaining that card. Further, you have to animate the Wish

  • The autoplay trivial stuff should be optional. I think it can be very confusing for new players even to not have to click a copper when they play Moneylender.

Other Bugs / Re: Confirmation email

The same has happened to my account "ravi". Signing Up... Page was just there and stuck, could log in, but never got a confirmation email. Now I can join other games but can't host my own.
