I've played a game where we replaced two starting Estates with Adventurer and Page before.  It was an adventure.

I've opened double Curse and won before

So I'm pretty sure you screwed up here. Towards the end, on one turn you had Remodel, Horse Traders, a couple Provinces, and some money in hand. You remodeled a Silver into a Duchy, then bought a Province. Instead, you could have played Horse Traders, discarded the Provinces, and had $13 and 2 buys, to buy a Province and a Duchy. Same result except you have 1 more Silver in your deck, which you really could have used in the turns after that.

That, and I'm not sure your opening was optimal.

Playing remodel is strictly better than playing horse traders because, as has been discussed in the past, horse traders is a boring card.

Also, this is the memes thread.

Point iguana. Not that points really matter with a result, but still.

Because alligator is commonly shortened to "gator" anyway. :P

Man. I had four strips of bacon yesterday. Was one automatically undercooked, one automatically overcooked? No, let's put a stop to that right here, all four strips were excellent.

haha, nope

also spent maybe 3 minutes arguing with self about how to play your board. i think opening ambassador/potion, picking up saboteurs if opponent tries speed strategies with wharf and just trying to be smarter if opponent mirrors (what else can you do)?

I only did because of the comment on the other thread about replacing Urchin with Urchins; made me double-check. Is there a reason that you changed that one (and not any other ones)?

Because from an Otter's point of view, they are a feast.  He probably just didn't have ideas for changing the mechanics of the others.

No ideas worth the extra effort, at least.

I think each instance of the word "Action" should be replaced with "Otter" (on all the Otter cards, I mean).
