Opponent did this, but it was still interesting:

j plays a King's Court.
j plays a Band of Misfits.
j plays a Farmers' Market.
j gets +1 Buy.
j adds 1 VP to the Farmers' Market pile.
j gets +$4.
j plays a Farmers' Market again.
j gets +1 Buy.
j takes 4 VP from the Farmers' Market pile.
j trashes a Farmers' Market.
j plays a Band of Misfits a third time.
j plays a Swindler.
j gets +$2.

I assume Band of Misfits could change into something else because it left play.

Yeah it’s the classic BoM + Throne Room + Feast question basically. If you Throne Room a BoM normally, then Throne Room plays the BoM a second time except it’s not a BoM anymore, so you can’t choose a new card; you’re just playing that card. But if you use it on a one-shot, then when you play it again it’s back to being a BoM again, so you choose a new card when you play BoM.

This is obsolete because errata, right?
Now you can just pick a different thing each time with Band of Misfits.

The day before yesterday, after the second shuffle in turn 5, I held the cards in hand I had bought through turns 1 to 4.

Were they 4 stewards?

Yes, this situation is no longer semi-interesting.

I ended a game with a deck of 7 Coppers (and nothing else).

The game was a tie 17-17, ending on turn 8.

How did this happen? I'm guessing it involved some combination of Donate + Tomb, but I have no idea why you would be left with 7 coppers...maybe Banquet or something.

Salt the Earth + Tomb. I bought 2 Razes, trashed my 3 estates and the two razes, and bought 6 Salt the Earths.

My opponent bought 2 provinces and trashed 2 non-estate cards with razes.

I had a very bizarre game. I had inherited Ironworks and put the +1 Card token on Ironworks from Pathfinding. First I gained all 8 Estates, then I gained 9 Ironworks. The following turn I played them all and ended the game on a 4-pile. There was no draw besides Enchantress (but no village).

This was intentional, but I played a game IRL with Capitalism, and the only kingdom cards were cards that were affected by Capitalism. It felt weird not to have to worry about villages.

IRL, I play with a modded version of Wild Hunt. But I just played an online game with Wild Hunt with no villages and only two non-terminal actions, but it also had the Peasant line. So I put the +action token on Wild Hunt and destroyed my opponent.
(A big reason I don't like Wild Hunt and Farmer's Market is they heavily favor the person who's already ahead. First person to be able to play a few Wild Hunts in one turn has a huge advantage.)

On another note, it's hard to find an even match online. That game I destroyed my opponent. The game before that I got completely crushed. It's seems to go one way or the other most of the time.

I don't know if you know this, but you can click on "Advanced Options" to adjust the min and max rating of your opponent. The default is +10 and -10; I set it to +5 and -5, and I feel like I usually get pretty good opponents that way. There is of course still some variance in how good people are who have a given rating.

I just lost to pirate ship big money... on a board with chapel, university, outpost, envoy, royal blacksmith, farmer's market, crossroads, and one of those VP landmarks that give points for actions. My strategy could have been better, but man, engines are pretty bad if you dud 10 times in a row.

Pirate Ship is pretty strong on boards that are short of non-money +Coin.

Played two Skulks.  First Skulk, there was only one hex left in the pile, and it was Misery, the first of the game, so my opponent took Miserable.  Second Skulk, hex pile gets reshuffled.  After reshuffling, the top hex was ... Misery!  So, now my opponent has Twice Miserable!  -4VP in a single turn!

Game I just played with my brother: I had a Treasure Map, a Tracker, a Gold, a Copper, and a Ghost in my hand.  He played Ghost Ship.  So, I top-decked my Treasure Map and Ghost.  Then, on my turn, I played Tracker, and then bought another Treasure Map, using the Tracker to topdeck it, so my next had I had two Treasure Maps, which, of course, I immediately played (and obviously did not play the Ghost)  Then, it turned out that the top card on the deck before the Treasure Maps was the Pouch, so my next hand was 4 Golds + 1 Pouch = $13 with 2 buys.  It was a rather interesting irony that his Ghost Ship happened to benefit me

In an IRL game, I bid 40 for Mountain Pass. I then proceeded to Smuggle 2 Provinces (I played two Bridges first) and use gainers to cause a 3-pile and win.
