did nobody get my rsp joke
I played a game where this was a key card. Settlers/Bustling Village was in the game, and Obelisk was on Forum. I had a turn where I got $37 and 4 buys through Fortune and just bought 4 Provinces, then lost the game by a point. Lesson: you should probably always buy Forum/Something more expensive over something more expensive/nothing.$37 after doubling seems odd.

I'm guessing (http://wiki.dominionstrategy.com/images/thumb/8/81/Debt.png/18px-Debt.png) was involved.

It was actually $42 but I had <5>.

Has anyone else observed something similar to a village idiot with Forum?
I have seen this a couple of times with some of the more casual players at my gaming club. The thought process appears to be "Great, buy lots of Forums and I can draw my deck, discard my rubbish cards and play my good ones". I think they mistake Forum as draw as they don't realise that +3 cards and discard 2 is only maintaining your hand size, not increasing it. They play several Forums along with a few other actions that don't draw and when it comes to playing their treasures they only have a couple in hand and they struggle to have more than 4 or 5 to spend per turn. If they do hit 5 they will often buy another Forum.
Forum is functionally pretty close to a one-off of "trash 3 cards" for most games.Surely you mean 2 cards? Forum draws one card to replace itself, and sifts only 2 cards.
Well, it seems my memory was faulty; you are indeed correct.Forum is functionally pretty close to a one-off of "trash 3 cards" for most games.Surely you mean 2 cards? Forum draws one card to replace itself, and sifts only 2 cards.
