From Game #29975499:
Turn 4 - AJD
A plays a Swamp Hag.
...
Turn 4 - lightbulb
...
l buys an Urchin.
l gains a Curse.
l reacts with a Trader.
l gains a Silver.
l returns a Silver.
l receives a Changeling.
...
Turn 6 - AJD
A plays an Urchin.
A draws a Copper.
A gets +1 Action.
l discards a Curse.
Lightbulb shouldn't have ended up with a Curse in their deck after turn 4, right? But it seems that they did. Is this a bug?

I loaded the game myself and tried it. I figured out what happened--Lightbulb must have messed up. They didn't reveal trader to the curse gaining but did reveal trader to the urchin gaining. Go to decision 25 and try it yourself, and you can replicate the log and the curse gaining.
If you correctly reveal Trader to the curse gaining, then you can gain the silver instead of the curse, and then react again to the silver gaining to get a changeling instead.

The problem is that lightbulb reacted to the wrong gain (namely the Urchin gain). With indents the log looks like this:
Turn 4 - markus
m plays 3 Coppers. (+$3)
m buys an Urchin.
m gains a Curse.
m reacts with a Trader.
m gains a Silver.
m returns a Silver.
m receives a Changeling.
So reacting was not in response to gaining Curse but to buying (and gaining) Urchin. In terms of clicking in the game: they gain the Curse first, but declline Trader; second they gain Urchin and use Trader and then use Changeling's ability.

Thanks!
