Game Log Issues / frequent disconnecting
Last post by Azubi - 02 September 2026, 10:43:42 AMHello,
For some time now, the server has been responding slowly, connecting takes forever, you are almost always disconnected and thus lose the game! It is impossible to play.

Card Bugs / Re: Armory Sheepdog interactio...
Last post by Ingix - 31 August 2026, 07:42:05 AMThanks for the report, Agster.
While it may indeed be counter intuitive, it is correct. The idea behind this is that because hand cards are secret in Dominion, there is no way for your opponent to check if you already had the second Sheepdog in hand when you gained a card.
Of course, there would be ways around this, like you having to reveal all the cards you want to react with at once, then being allowed to use only those. But the rule for Dominion is that when an event happens that something may trigger from, a trigger window opens. During that trigger window players can use reaction effects that are appropriate for the trigger window.
In your case, the Sheepdog that you drew with the first Sheepdog has a perfectly valid reaction effect, it isn't important that it wasn't in your hand initially. It is important that it is in your hand when the trigger window is still open. And the trigger window closes only when all players decline to react to it.

Card Bugs / Armory Sheepdog interaction
Last post by Agster - 31 August 2026, 01:42:43 AMWas playing a game id: #182856860 where I believe an interaction occurred that wasn't standard gameplay.
I had an armory and a sheepdog in my hand.
I played the armory.
Gained a sheepdog from the sheepdog kingdom pile onto the deck.
The sheepdog in my hand was played because I gained a card.
I draw the sheepdog I just gained.
It allows me to the sheepdog I just gained in response to gaining itself???
This feels wrong. The text seems to imply the sheepdog should be in my hand at the time of gaining the card and especially shouldn't be activated by gaining its own instance.
Anyway, this is my first bug report :) don't know what else to say.
