Here are some guidelines on the kind of feedback I'm looking for:
1. Try to keep it short & concise
2. Try to describe your own personal wishes, not what you think is best for others.
3. Please make actual points in these posts (instead of refering to earlier posts making points)

Here are some features we have on our wishlist; please let me know if you would appreciate/use them:
1. An offline client, allowing you to play campaigns against bots - Campaign style play is less interesting to me than simply being able to generate a game against good bots. Whether that is off-line or not is also not that important to me
2. A bot with a setting for different play styles - I would love to have more sophisticated bot play styles. One of the few things I miss from the older versions is bots who have different strategies to play against
3. A strong bot. Yes, bots that make better plays would be good, even just the proper playing of things like "bank" where they often play it first instead of last, or "gladiator" where they don't reveal cards and so give you a free +1 coin anytime you play them are needed fixes
4. Options for timed games - Since I tend to either play against bots or against people I know, timed games are not important to me
5. Options for undo settings - I have really appreciated the existing undo option since it is amazing how often I misclick either because I am going to fast or forget the prompt order on things. A way to speed up undos in a game might be nice for friendly games
6. Online mini-tournaments; the option to easily create one for you & your friends. - This is not something I see myself using anytime soon
7. Option to invite specific players to your table - this would be nice since what I really want to do is create a private table and invite my friends to it and not have to worry about a random person sitting down thinking I am creating a game for anyone. Even while online it is nice to feel like I am just playing in my home with my friends and not at a game store with lots of other people around.
8. More translations (to what language?) - Not a need for me since English is my first langauge
9. Better animations when cards are gained/bought/played/... - I think what you have now is fine, but maybe I just don't realize how much better better would be
10. Better visualization of split piles, Archive/Crypt contents, Prince targets, ... YES, being able to see bottom cards in split piles is really important and improving how that works would be great
10. Option to hide the log - if that is the case it would be good to move some of the prompts out of the log, such as the reaction buttons which often get overlooked
11. Android app (or just improved compatibility?) - I tend to only play on my desktop but as an Android user I would potentially download an app if it existed but I would not put a high value on it
12. iPhone app (or just improved compatibility?) - Don't have an iphone
13. Downloadable game logs - Not something I would see myself using
14. Improved moderation (dealing with chat abuse, slowplayers, ...) - Since I play only against bots or my friends this is not an issue for me personally, but if I was to venture out and play against others I would certainly like it to be in a nice friendly space
15. Tutorial on how to play Dominion - It seems like a smart marketing option and I want you guys to succeed by bringing new people into the game, but I feel I have a strong grasp of the game and so would not need it
16. Tutorial on how to play dominion online. - Same as above

Thanks for asking for our feedback
