As you may have noticed, I updated the Featured Article on the wiki from Duke to Chapel. I figured this would be a fairly non-controversial choice. That said, I'd like to hear from the community what they'd like to be featured next, probably after a month or a couple weeks. With that in mind, I'd like you all to browse the wiki, and nominate the article you think should be featured next in a post in this thread. Obviously, don't nominate an article if it already has been.
From there, the simplest method would just be to +1 your favorite nom(s), and the one with the highest respect after a certain period would be Featured. Of course, that could produce some odd respect inflation, so if people have problems with that, I can make a poll of the submitted choices.
And theory, I realize this may not technically be the right subforum for this thread, but no one ever looks at the wiki subforum. :/ Also, I could argue that the wiki subforum is more for procedural things and wiki-specific things, whereas this is more of a community thing.

Not sure if you mean to exclude the long list of former featuured articles with that, but in that case, for an exhausive list see here (http://wiki.dominionstrategy.com/index.php/Main_Page/Featured_Article/Archive)

Yeah, don't pick any on the exhaustive list of... two.

Contraband (http://wiki.dominionstrategy.com/index.php/Contraband)
For me, it was one of the most instructive articles published.
-
Not sure if it's on the wiki, but I would recommend the Rebuild Mirrors article. If you don't know why, then go read it, it speaks for itself :)

I just added it to the Rebuild article, so maybe nominate the full Rebuild article?
-
I nominate the Scrying Pool article! Very insightful!
-
Who won- who's next- You decide!
I also think that either the Rebuild artice or the Contraband in should be next.
-

+1 for Epic Rap Battles of History!
-
Currently it looks like Contraband is going to be the featured article for November. I'm going to keep this thread up, so you can just keep nominating articles for future months. Rebuild and Scrying Pool have both already been nominated, so do not nominate them again - just +1 the current post if you haven't already.
-
Rebuild has just been put up as December's Featured Article on the wiki.
Articles that have been featured so far:
Tactician
Duke
Chapel
Contraband
Rebuild
If no one objects, Scrying Pool is next, but nothing is up after that. Please nominate which article you'd like to be featured next! If anything gets more than one upvote, it'll go before Scrying Pool (unless that gets more upvotes).
-
I like Procession, and it is also one of the most difficult cards.
-
Updated main page accordingly.

The featured article is now Scrying Pool. There are no more articles left in the lineup! Please nominate more articles!

Marauder for the next one.
-
I nominated Procession a few messages ago and there was no response.
-
Not sure exactly how that works, but I guess I have the right to do this. I'd like to nominate Tribute if has not been already featured.
Really cool card that is sometimes hard to get working.

That's a good decision. Well written article, that Scrying Pool one is. Kudos to that author ;D
-

I apologize! I did not see it. Please plus one the original post if you'd like to nominate Procession.

Yes, quite cool, but have you read the article, and do you think it's worth nominating?
-
So I changed the Featured to Sea Hag, since I thought it was best of the Curser articles and there hadn't been one of those yet, and I put up Prince for the DYK since it's all fresh and shiny and new.
That said, nominate more articles for being Featured!
-
Just changed the Featured Article to Cache, as I felt the article is rather comprehensive. Any thoughts on what should come next?
-
I might be a bit biased because it's my favourite card in the game, but people need to know more about the underestimated, greatly designed (and not as greatly illustrated) gem that Chancellor is.

I actually used Chancellor quite effectively IRL today.
-
As you may have noticed, Chancellor is now the current FA. If no one suggests another one, I'll just start picking ones I like, but I'd prefer to get some community input. :)
-
I vote Market Square.
-
I was actually considering a Market Square article recently. Not necessarily writing one, but just what I'd like to see in it. I think one of the most important things to learn about Market Square is when to stop using the Reaction and start playing it. A lot of players are just lowering their hand size to gain Gold well into the endgame when they'll likely never even see that Gold.
-
yeah, sometimes it's good to get it just for the on-play, and the reaction should rarely be used after around turn 10.
-
Market Square doesn't really have much in the way of an article at present, so I put up Beggar instead, the other Reaction from Dark Ages. My current thought is to feature Adventures once it's released, hopefully in March. That leaves an open spot for February! Feel free to nominate a card article! Bear in mind that you're nominating the *article* because it's well put-together, and not the card because you like it. :)
-

Real life as in "a physical game of Dominion," or real life as in actual real life? Did you effectively discard your hand and if so, why?

Chancellor
+$2
If this is real life, you may put your deck in your discard. Otherwise discard your hand.
-
Nah, RL Chancellor lets you instantly reincarnate.
-
I decided to be "clever" with the combination of this month's Featured Article and DYK.
-
I nominate the underrated Scout.
-
If it means you'll stop bringing it up, I'll write an article titled "X Reasons Why Scout Is Actually Just About As Bad As Everyone Thinks It Is, But Maybe With Apothecary It Can Be Kind Of Helpful To Have One Or Two I Guess".

What are you talking about? Scout is awesome! Just yesterday i bought Messenger, gained a Scout and revealed Watchtower to trash it. Originally i wanted to buy an IGG, but then i saw that combo was even more brutal. Sadly, my opponent rage-quitted after that and now i have to leave the country :'(

There is a Scout article by Powerman already though.

Why not Messenger-gain a Curse if you're just trying to junk your opponent?

Quest is on the board. Curse synergy, man.

The joke was that Scout was worse than Curse. It's not really a situation that happened recently. I made it up to poke fun at Scout. Also, i'm not actually forced to leave the country.

Yup and scout doesn't synergize with quest because normally it reduces handsize.

I mean, I would stop bringing it up for a few days, or maybe a week.

Actually, Scout is constantly rated high by Barons.

Any nominations other than Scout?

We need yet another new Featured Article! Any requests? Preferably one that hasn't been featured yet.

-

I put up Black Market it in the interim, but if you can cook up an awesome card article, it can certainly be featured.
