I too wish the re-order would work on android devices. Very frustrating when you can't re-order cards on some boards.

Thanks to Ingix this now works on dev, so it will be in the next release.

Hi, for some reason I have only been given max Province and Base set games since New
Year's Eve. Frequently had Colony games and all other expansions prior to that. I've checked my familiar cards and everything is still selected. Has something changed? How can I correct this? Thanks!

At the start of this year the "free year of subscription" we gave to all old MF-users has ended. Because of that you personally only had a subscription to Alchemy, but it probably was more easy to find opponents with Prosperity too before the new year.

Your options now are to play with base only, select 'wait for expansions', or buy a subscription yourself.

yes thanks for reporting... this is a lot worse then I realized and I fixed it today (so it will be in the next release).

I'm not sure if this is a regression or if I missed it intially.

it was regression, and will be fixed again in the next release.

On discord there are also reports of the subscription ending some hours early. I've put the topic in the known interface issues list, I assume that we will here more of it, since the first 1 year subs will runs out.

The subscriptions don't end early, but there is a bit of a "miscommunication" about the end date/time.

When we first made the store I thought mentioning an end time and/or a timezone for subscriptions would be confusing more people then actually helping them. Now I'm not so sure. The fact that JunkDealers subscriptions were mentioned in two groups even though they ended on the same day implies they have different end times.

Yes it looks like 1.3.9 solved these problems, although I'm not 100% confident yet.

[Version 1.3.9]

Version 1.3.9

The game has started lagging recently. This release the servers will log more extensively in order to be able to investigate further, and it will also balance the games over the three gameservers differently. Apart from that there should be no functional differences with 1.3.8

It seems to be fixed now.

No, unfortunately it's not. I haven't found the problem yet, and until I do it comes and goes.

Sorry I'm a bit late responding here, but yes I can help you with this.
For now it isn't really a feature to buy gifts but you can use this trick:

1. Create a new account but don't use it to play.
2. Buy a subscription on this new account for however long you want.
3. Send me a message containing the name of this new account, the name of the account you want to give it to, and possibly the date you want me to move the subscription over.

[Version 1.3.8]

Version 1.3.8

• Games getting stuck
• Internal Error on load old game with Obelisk

In the previous version when someone reconnected to a gameserver without closing previous connections, the gameserver failed to do a proper cleanup and this could get the game stuck, only solvable by executing an undo. "without properly closing" is most likely the result of genuine connection trouble on the client side. This bug was much more prominent in spectated games, as those have people reconnecting all the time.

All games featuring Obelisk were unloadable, and now you can load those.
It's possible there are more reasons for games not to load but I'm not aware of any; if you still encounter Internal Error on loading a recent game please do post the game number here

I was having intermittent problems for a while and now it's been out for 10 minutes or so...

I don't know what you mean exactly here. But the servers are up, I was just playing a game.

sorry it was down everyone... please try again now.

The people who can fix this are asleep (I'm guessing).  This has happened before.  If anybody can wake them up, that would be awesome!

they woke up and fixed it :)

Sorry it as down.

Sorry, indeed it was down for everyone, for approximately the past 4 hours.

Fortunately I just fixed the problem and I expect everyone to be able to play again now.

The log also says all the time that your opponen has left the table which is not correct. I was playing with a friend and when I got this message I was irritated that he had left without notice. Fortunately is wasn't true. Player has left message should only be displayed when he has really left and not as default.

I'd noticed this and considered reporting a bug but I think it actually working as designed but with poor wording.

My guess is that the message appears as soon as they click the "ok" button on the "game has ended" pop up. This certainly could be worded better however.

You're right on both ends.
