1. An offline client, allowing you to play campaigns against bots

Not essential, it'd be nice but I probably wouldn't get full use out if it unless it was a good story in its own right.

2. A bot with a setting for different play styles

Not bothered. I like playing humans.

3. A strong bot.

Not bothered. I like playing humans.

4. Options for timed games

Maybe, not essential.

5. Options for undo settings

Something like "only allow undo if no new info has been revealed" and only one step. I always let people undo but have only used it myself when I've accidentally ended my turn without buying or similar. Also move "view trash" away from "undo", I've clicked undo when all I wanted to do was see what was in the bin.

6. Online mini-tournaments; the option to easily create one for you & your friends.

Something I would quite like to join in with. But without having to have friends.

7. Option to invite specific players to your table

Not interested really.

8. More translations (to what language?)

English is fine by me.

9. Better animations when cards are gained/bought/played/...

I missed the fancy sparkles on the old app, but wouldn't especially want them back. I would like the animations to go at the same speed and make sense all the time, sometimes the game seems to end and I haven't seen the last province bought (and that was how it ended) and the animation when my opponent swaps the teacher/champion set of cards seem opaque to me too.

10. Better visualization of split piles, Archive/Crypt contents, Prince targets, ...

The thing I would like most. I don't see why I can't see the Settler & the Bustling Village when I click on the pile anyway? I don't want to see the whole Black Market deck or anything but "which of the tournament prizes are left" would be about right.

10. Option to hide the log

Last year I would have said yes, but now I would prefer it to work better. I'd like to be able to click on the card names and see the cards in question. I'd like to be able to collapse the turns to make it easier to navigate. I'd like to be able to see my opponent's rating without scrolling right back to the top.

11. Android app (or just improved compatibility?)

Not for me.

12. iPhone app (or just improved compatibility?)

iPad app would be great, but the web app is now pretty decent. I'd prioritize a better interface for everyone on the web over an app to be honest.

13. Downloadable game logs

I wouldn't want to use them myself particularly, I would like there to be options that enable others to build tools for analysis though, extended versions of what the scavenger site does now.

14. Improved moderation (dealing with chat abuse, slowplayers, ...)

Not had much problem with either.

15. Tutorial on how to play Dominion

Not for me, though I think it would be useful to bring in new subscribers.

16. Tutorial on how to play dominion online.

Not for me.
