1. I would use an offline client and enjoyed playing through the campaigns on the old MF site.

2. I think this would be cool but I likely would not utilize this feature. A generic bot is okay for me.

3. Yes, I always like a challenge and strong bots force me to improve my game.

4. I think this is a good feature however I have not faced any issues with people taking too long online. Maybe just a limit that times out and grants a win if the other player goes afk.

5. The current undo system is very good in my opinion.

6. I think mini tournaments is an excellent idea. I would definitely frequent the site more if this was a convenient feature.

7. Yes, I play ~50% of the time with my friends online. Inviting specific players would expedite the process.

8. English is good for me!

9. I'm not particular on animations, simple is best in my opinion.

10. I will admit that it's been a month or two since I've last played and do to this sporadic play pattern I struggle to remember how to view split piles. It's not as intuitive as I'd like it to be.

11. Don't have an Android phone currently.

12. I would rather have improved compatibility with the mobile browser than an app that I have to download. I've played on my phone a handful of times but it is painful to do. Unless this has been updated recently I recall really wishing there was a way to zoom in otherwise functionality was fine.

13. Would be cool, but in all honesty I probably wouldn't ever use this feature

14. This community is surprisingly friendly for an anonymous site. I would recommend having something that auto forfeits for a player if they don't take an action in >10 minutes. I think this should be a default setting but allow players to turn off in case they are playing with a friend and are willing to wait.

15. Would not use. Maybe an optional "help" feature that you can click on any card that would pullup a scrollable FAQ that could be semi-publicly edited elsewhere by the community. I envision this covering somewhat odd scenarios or card combos. Perhaps it could even detect other cards in the current kingdom and only show FAQs relating to the possible cards it would be paired with.

16. Probably useful to new people.

Conclusion:

Overall I think this UI is the best Dominion has ever had. I do wish I could have my permanent purchases back, I definitely wouldn't have spent the money for a subscription. If you could grant former purchasers lifetime Silver that would be nice. Or grant former purchasers a cheaper option to renew. I can pay $45 to get Dominion online for 1 year or I could pay $10 more and get Xbox Live (aka tons of games online) for a year. The pricing just seems way out of the park.

Hope my feedback will be of some use to you! My username is Defenestr80r.
