I won this game, but...it was frustrating. Most notably because of this (my thoughts in quotes):

"So I think I'll build a Fool's Gold stack, with a Loan and a Bishop for trashing."

wildaboutmn: turn 8
wildaboutmn   plays 2 Copper, 1 Fool's Gold
wildaboutmn   buys Noble Brigand

"Wha.... why are you buying Noble Brigand?! It will do nothing against me!"

mail-mi   reveals: Fool's Gold, Bishop
mail-mi   discards: Fool's Gold, Bishop

"Dang, he discarded my bishop."

wildaboutmn: turn 10
wildaboutmn   plays 3 Copper, 1 Fool's Gold
wildaboutmn   buys Noble Brigand
mail-mi   reveals: Fool's Gold, Bishop
mail-mi   discards: Fool's Gold, Bishop

"Okay, that's annoying. I'll grab another bishop if he's just going to keep discarding them."

wildaboutmn: turn 12
wildaboutmn   plays Noble Brigand
mail-mi   reveals: Bishop, Bishop
mail-mi   discards: Bishop, Bishop
mail-mi   gains Copper

My thoughts here can only be expressed accurately like this:


Also, my loan only hit a copper once, then hit fool's golds for the rest of the game.

Looks frustrating indeed, it always sucks if your opponent doesn't know what he's doing and still manages to hurt you with it. It seems like he thought Noble Brigand could steal Fool's Gold somehow, although he doesn't seem to learn from the fact that it didn't work first time. Odd.

Frankly, though, I'd have skipped Bishop and would have gone for Count as my trasher, or maybe Altar if you can hit $6, since it's the only way to possibly get two FG's in a turn.

This reminds me of the time where my opponent replaced my Chapel with Estate via Swindler 4 times in the same game.  Obviously I had to keep re-buying it and it kept getting replaced.

And at the other end of the spectrum, there was one time I was forced to gain 9 out of the 10 available Chapels, because my opponent kept hitting my Chapels with his Jester. Frustrating. (Fortunately, the game ended in a tie.)

Can I pass you a Chapel under the table, shark_bait?

I changed the thread title. This'll be fun.

That's blatant click bait!
