Hey gang! I just made a Sporcle Quiz for Dominion! There are already a couple of quizzes which are just naming the cards. This quiz asks you to name specific cards based on the card's characteristics i.e. "Name a card that only trashes treasure" or "name a treasure card that can be worth $10 or more". This quiz is the first of its kind on Sporcle. Enjoy!

Pretty cool!

I'm sad I missed 'spy'

You missed a few things too though, I think, though maybe some of these are rules technicalities that I don't get.

Mint can let you trash more than 4 cards.
Pirate Ship, Noble Brigand, and Thief all trash the opponent's treasure. (None of them were included in the 'only trash treasure', and Thief wasn't included in the attack cards that attack opponent's treasure.)
Scrying pool for drawing more than 6 cards.
Trade Route and Pirate Ship have mats.

Cool, great idea! I love Sporcle. I noticed some omissions too, in addition to ftl's:

Inn has only 3 letters in its name

"Action card costing more than $2 that changes the number of cards it gives conditionally" is perhaps poorly worded, but things like Scout, Apothecary, Cellar, Library came to mind. And even Hunting Party gives +1 or +2 cards depending on whether you have non-duplicates still in your deck. Or Tournament depending on whether the other person has a Province. Also, Menagerie.

HiveMindEmulator · « **Reply #3 on:** February 07, 2012, 10:16:04 pm »

Also:
-Diadem can also be worth >$10
-Any curser can put a curse before the reshuffle if they open mandarin.

I agree the worst clue was "Action card costing more than $2 that changes the number of cards it gives conditionally". I had no idea what that meant when I read it.

Nice quiz, a few answers are missing though

For Card that can put 6 or more cards into your hand: Crossroads, native village, and counting house are also valid answers

For treasure worth 10 or more: whether venture should count is a matter of opinion but I think it should

ftl · « **Reply #5 on:** February 07, 2012, 10:17:34 pm »

Venture does not count there. Venture gives exactly $1; it also lets you play a second card, and that second card gives some arbitrary amount. But Venture is only giving $1.

A few issues, as have been pointed out, but very nice for the first of its kind. I managed to get them all in the end, except for one card set. I was racking my brains trying to think of what I had missed, I counted all the sets off in many different ways, and I was sure I had them all. I even tried The Guilds and Dark Ages. But it was Promos. :S

Scrying pool for drawing more than 6 cards.

Apprentice was also missing.

Quote

Trade Route and Pirate Ship have mats.

Technically, so do Bishop/Goons/Monument.

Also:

Any action can reduce the price of Peddler
Scrying Pool can change number of cards drawn conditionally
"Promo" is not a set

Aren't those called Victory Point mats or something like that? The others are specifically referred to by card name - Trade Route mat, Pirate Ship mat, Native Village mat, Island mat. But the VP mat isn't called by the card names, is it? Maybe I'm not remembering the rule phrasing clearly, 'tis possible, I don't have the rulebook on me right now.

DG · « **Reply #9 on:** February 07, 2012, 10:34:08 pm »

Quarry can reduce prices. There is a pirate ship mat. The thief attacks the opponent's treasures.

petrie911 · « **Reply #10 on:** February 07, 2012, 11:28:59 pm »

Philosopher's stone can also give +$0.

Liked the quiz. 3-letter card and $0 cost treasure held me up the longest.

dnkywin · « **Reply #11 on:** February 07, 2012, 11:53:50 pm »

Inn works for the 3-letter card as well.
Also Chapel allows you to trash exactly 2 cards

I only count two letters in "Inn". ; ]

You got ALL 40 answers correct! Woo woo!

There were some omissions indeed and "Card that trashes another card only when you acquire it?" could fit Watchtower as well as the intended answer.

I Sporcled quite a bit in my days, getting like 99% of all capital cities right, which is just insane. Maybe I'll see if there are more new ones I like.

Wolphmaniac · « **Reply #14 on:** February 08, 2012, 08:50:39 am »

Thanks for all of the feedback everyone! I spent a lot of time on it but I knew I would probably have a few errors to fix. I am making adjustments to the quiz now. Believe me, I agonized over the wording of some of these questions for quite a while. There are obviously a good deal of nuances that need to be accounted for in wording. Keep the feedback coming and enjoy!

Treasure Map can also trash 2 cards.

For some reason typing in Mint gave me the Forge answer for free.

Was stuck for a long time on the Treasure that cost 0, but got it for free when I answered diadem to the $10 question.

Pirate Ship took me a while to come up with.

Here are some questions:

Set with the most attacks: Base
Card that references "player to your right": Smugglers
Card that gains from the trash: Thief

Wolphmaniac · « **Reply #16 on:** February 08, 2012, 09:34:47 am »

OK...I have accounted for ALL of the suggestions up to this point, either by changing the answer(s) or rewording the question. I have also EXPANDED ; ) the quiz from 40 to 50 questions. Try it again and enjoy!

Davio · « **Reply #17 on:** February 08, 2012, 09:41:30 am »

Card that reference the player to your left. Answers: Masquerade, Tribute, Possession, Contraband, Envoy
Card that reference the player to your right. Answer: Smugglers

GendoIkari · « **Reply #18 on:** February 08, 2012, 09:46:19 am »

Did anyone else have trouble thinking of "Promo"? I didn't get that one. I don't think that should count as a card set; each Promo card was released separately; not part of a set. But if most people got it, then never mind.

I did, but it was the only one left.

Very nice, thanks ! 48/50, I only missed the two questions "according to councilroom.com".

jotheonah · « **Reply #21 on:** February 08, 2012, 11:40:17 am »

Nice quiz!

Native Village can put 7 or more cards into your hand.

Envoy requires your opponent to name a card. Well, to choose one. Maybe not technically a right answer.

I got 45, but only cause I ran out of time. Sporcle quizzes and Netbook-shaped browsers are not friends.

Good points, thanks! And yeah, Sporcle has a major problem with smaller screens.

Cool, new version!

Typing 'pawn' gave me 'trusty steed' for 'card with 4 options'. Everything else behaved as expected, I think...

Not to mention those cards actually both give you 6 options...
