I could not get an activation email to send to the email associated with my account, but my player name is fijigrad.  I've answered only the parts that I had an opinion about.

1. An offline client, allowing you to play campaigns against bots
Yes, please.  I would use this a lot.  I enjoyed this aspect of the previous version of Dominion, especially in learning the new expansions.  I like to be able to jump on and play a game or two and then get back to work.

2. A bot with a setting for different play styles
I think this could be useful, but it is not as important as a "good" AI that can beat you when you don't play optimally.

5. Options for undo settings
There are times when I've simply clicked the wrong card or lagged and made an error, based solely on my impatience, not incompetence.  I would like to see an option to give each player a fixed number of undo moves (2, perhaps) that do not require the consent of the other player(s). 

10. Better visualization of split piles, Archive/Crypt contents, Prince targets, ...   && 10. Option to hide the log
I would like to see the victory/treasure area shrink even more than it already is, have the log and the chat window in the same space and have the ability to minimize that area.  I would like to be able to see the Island mat, Tavern mat, Prince target, etc. If you could toggle between showing the log or the chat window and showing the mat areas in play, that would be helpful.

11. Android app (or just improved compatibility?)
If I could play bots, I would probably use this feature.  I wouldn't trust the reliability of my cell connection or anyone else's on a phone in a head to head game.  I honestly do not know if this already exists or not.

13. Downloadable game logs
I would never use this, but I can see some people wanting this feature to analyze another's player's strategy to help their own.

14. Improved moderation (dealing with chat abuse, slowplayers, ...
Obnoxious players in other games I've played online are a big reason that I do not play many games online against people. I've not played anyone that was rude, but I've read about enough occurances to make me a little gun-shy to play humans outside of my friends list.

15. Tutorial on how to play Dominion && 16. Tutorial on how to play dominion online.
This is where a campaign against bots would be helpful.  The best way for a new player to learn is the lpay and to play a lot, and with the same cards until you figure them out.


I really enjoy the game and hope you continue to improve the online experience.
