A short descriptive line on the 'Table listing' would be fantastic.  Someone could put in, 'silver only' or 'Intrigue + Seaside' or 'Only curse attack cards'.  Wouldn't that be fun?  And I could up my game without being brutalized on the ladder.  You could also show the rank of the host.

I like this idea. I hereby add my vote to this feature request.

I add my vote to this feature request.

Yay  I second this post.  :)

IMO, there needs to be a way to automatch with tables people have set up. If you search for unrated games, it should match you up with someone who has prepared a table. (Of course, for this to work right, we also need the "friends only" setting for when you create a table. People have been asking for that feature for a while too.)

Game #36745413 on frankfurt. Turn 11
First time, I played Scrap, I meant to trash a copper. 2nd time, I wanted to use Way of the Turtle, but it trashed another copper automatically because there was only one option to trash (copper), and I wasn't able to play it as a turtle.

For each game I played today, after it ended, the site took me back to the "inbox" screen.

There are many Landmarks and Events that clearly need more than a single line to show their scoring at the End Game score summary and it looks nasty seeing the second line of these items, like Bandit Fort, getting severely cropped.

I second this. The fact that you can't read the whole scoring report should be considered a bug.

good to know.

Is Possession programmed into the game?

I don't want to play with it. I just want to know whether it's worth having it on my ban list or if it's always banned anyway. If it isn't in the game, I can put a different card on my ban list.

First, out of several games, I think I've only once been matched with someone who has set any banned or disliked cards (unless their lists were exactly the same as mine which I doubt).
Second, I highly doubt that that many people have lists which are similar enough to actually keep you from playing certain cards (unless you play the same opponent(s) over and over).

I am very grateful for this feature. This is one of the features I've been wanting. If you get matched with me, we'll play a fun game. Without this feature, if you got matched with me and one of my most hated cards was on the board, I would probably resign turn 1 anyway. What's the fun in that?

ShuffleIt didn't buy the business from Making Fun. ShuffleIt is a completely different business which was allowed the rights to make Dominion Online after Making Fun flopped. They didn't inherit any promises made my the previous company(s), and they have no obligation (legal or ethical) to the players who played Making Fun's Dominion online, but they did allow a free year to people who had bought the cards on Making Fun. They did this to be nice (and for good PR obviously). They also did foresee that some people would have the angry response given by the OP and others in this thread, but Goko/Making Fun are the ones who broke their promise, not ShuffleIt.

And ShuffleIt is doing a very good job producing Dominion online compared to Making Fun, especially considering ShuffleIt is only one person. It's unfortunate the ShuffleIt gets all the angry responses that should be directed at Making Fun.

And BTW, Donald X doesn't deserve any of the blame for this either. It's not like different companies are competing to be the ones to make Dominion Online. IIRC, Donald said that probably if ShuffleIt didn't get the rights to Dominion Online, then no one would have them and we would have no legal online Dominion implementation. And this is because ShuffleIt was the only entity who wanted the rights to make Dominion Online and demonstrated that they were able to.

Tell people, 'I wish we could honor all the past commitments under prior ownership.  But we can't.  We cannot afford to do this, and have, frankly, our most loyal and die-hard Dominion players not contributing.  If you great players got the game for free, forever, we'd have to charge new players double, and that will drive away those new players, which will drive us from running Dominion online.  We are not happy about the need to do this, we know that you are even less happy about this.  But we ask for your understanding.  This is the only way the business model will work.  And we want to make Dominion online an incredible success for years and years...[blah, blah, blah; normal PR statements.[/i]]"

ShuffleIt actually did give a message to this effect when they started their Dominion online.

The add friend option on the site is a way to make your own personal nice people league.

related to my other request:
While creating a table and putting together a custom kingdom, we need a button to toggle "This game is <ready/not ready> for other players to join".

Is it frowned upon to bump this?  Am I the only one who wants this?

Allow someone to create a table (maybe choosing no VP counter and 1-2 specific cards with the rest random or randomly chosen from specific sets), and then click a button that says "Automatch someone to this table".

Someone else would be on the matching screen, and be searching for a unrated game. They would be matched to the created table and be able to see the chosen options at the table including any specific cards, and get a question "Join this game?"

Also, the ability to save the settings for a created table.

This has been mentioned in a thread before somewhere, but I thought it deserved its own thread.
