I thought of secret hideaway and from there tried secret cave.
How the hell did anybody manage to guess Secret Cave and Sacred Grove?
Am I right in assuming that the hand during the buy phase only consists of left over VP cards like non-Inherited Estates and dead action cards?
Putting back dead action cards can be actually helpful, putting back VP cards isn't.
Is there really no one else who does a separate row for each cost? Like this:
CSGT
EDPU
$2's
$3's
$4's
$5's
$6's
Usually there won't be more than five rows, but if there are you can combine $6's and $7's or $1's and $2's if you really need to. I haven't played Adventures yet but with this method you can just put Events into the appropriate cost row. No one really agrees on where potion cost cards should go. When we play in space we just have them float above the appropriate row to represent that it costs more than that row, but neither more than nor less than the next row.
You are saying that a card which is in the trash can't be played. Where is your justification for that? So are you saying that a card "Choose a card from your hand. Play it. Play it." can't play it the second time if you choose Feast? Because I am saying that that card is functionally equivalent to Throne Room. Now do you see?
You say "When you play it, it becomes a Feast, and you play the Feast twice".
But you're totally ignoring how triggering works in Dominion. You think that you can play a card twice before actually resolving what that card does. You can't. You have to wait until you've resolved it once before you can play it again. It seems even clearer to me now.
What no one does, but should do, is to have a deck that is just like the randomizers, but with one of each regular-backed card. When drawing a random ten for kingdom, use this pile and then add the other 9 (or 7 or 11 depending on number of players) to the pile to make the standard ten. Then, use the remaining cards as the Black Market deck. If you buy a card from Black Market, all you need to do is put it in your discard - no fishing for the regular-backed version from the box. At the end of the game, just return one of each regular-backed card to your Black Market deck and put the other nine in their proper spots in their boxes.
