What are some of the best rules mess ups you have never seen?

Here are a couple of my favorites:

 - thinking that you can trash Silver with Moneylender
 - trying to count the cards in your hand when playing Philosopher's Stone

[Chris is me]

I've actually never seen anyone attempt to play a single action four times with multiple Throne Rooms.

Everyone I play with irl has never forgotten about duration cards and discarded them on the first turn they played them. I'm super impressed by that. I thought it was gonna be a huge problem.

I have heard about someone playing Trading Post once and gaining two Silver in hand.

For me, that's because I tell them three times what actually happens before they're allowed to play with the card

I've never seen anyone take their discard pile and flip it upside down to form their draw deck without shuffling it.

That's a pretty classic unseen rules mess up.

[Jimmmmm]

I've never seen someone reveal Trader on an Ironworksed Great Hall expecting to still get +1 Card/+1 Action.

I've never seen someone try to buy a Province by selling a 5$ action to the bank for 5$ and adding 3$ worth of treasure to it.

[J Reggie]

I've never seen someone misread a card and think it was telling them to eat it.

[GendoIkari]

I have heard about someone playing Trading Post once and gaining two Silver in hand.

Wow what an idiot.

[ackmondual]

When you've been Militia-ed again (before it gets to your turn), you need to discard 2 more cards... down to 1 in hand.

[Witherweaver]

I've never seen someone neglect to starve to death in a stalemate. 

[AJD]

I've never seen someone neglect to starve to death in a stalemate.

That's a correct rule observance you haven't seen, not a mess-up.

No, they're supposed to starve to death.  I haven't seen someone mess up and not do it.

Multiple negation being hard to parse strikes again!

[Dingan]

I have never seen someone forget about Island stuff

[Awaclus]

Here's a rules mess up that I didn't see in a game I just played:

 - Parsing Noble Brigand's text as "trashes (a revealed Silver) or (a Gold you choose)"

[Jeebus]

I've never seen anyone take their discard pile and flip it upside down to form their draw deck without shuffling it.

I've come pretty close to seeing that. Some people are awful at shuffling.

[Marcory]

I have never seen someone who gets up and tap dances with their discard pile instead of turning the cards face-down and randomly rearranging the order in which they are stacked.

[singletee]

I haven't seen someone spill a drink on the rulebook.

[Tombolo]

I haven't seen anybody intentionally manipulate their discards in order to influence their reshuffle

[ThetaSigma12]

I've never seemed someone whip out a drawing pad and start sketching the dominion card back when they were told to draw a card.

Suddenly I have visions of Amelia Bedelia dancing through my head...
