I got to $21 and 3 Buys. I'm almost (90-93%) certain you can't win that turn — there might be a little room for improvement in my solution but I doubt it'll be enough.

Hey, that's cool. What did you do?

Update: 23$, 3 buys en 2 curses in the opponents deck. (Which compensates for the 2 estates I sacrificed, but it still wasn't enough.

https://ibb.co/mBBEiv

Basic method:

process on fishing village, gain procession

process, procession, spice merchant, gain soothsayer, soothsayer

use those to gain extra golds, put 2 curses in the opponent's deck

but still only get 23

23/3 again with a slight modifier. Sad.

The main backbone is gaining another procession by processing fising village, which also gains coins, gaining a gold gainer by processing spice merchant and gaining a minion by the second processed procession.

But I can't get to 24.

Sacrificing an Estate gives you +2 VP, so it doesn't matter.

He's talking about sacrificing, not Sacrificing.

Please, keep your fake autism posts to yourself. I almost thought you had something useful to contribute to the puzzle.

Adrian, I am really sorry, but you're wrong. Obviously there was a misunderstanding between you and Theta, where one of you meant "Sacrifice" as a Dominion card and the second meant "sacrifice" as he had to trash estates for a result. Awaclus clearly tried to solve tis misunderstanding.

Sorry again, I just don't like when people are mad at each other though no reason for this exist (in that very case)

I am aware of the misunderstanding, it's the style of his fake personage posting that annoys the hell out of me, so I am kindly asking to refrain from doing it against me. Act like a normal person.

I do not really agree it was "kindly" and I do not agree that "normal" is a term that means the same for every person. But whatever, I hate these dialogues, twas my opinion. Have a good day :)

I don't disagree: maybe he thinks it's normal. But what remains is: I ask him kindly not to respond to me in that fashion. It's an easy request, I think.

Well, geez..

Anyways, I was hoping it was possible to get to $24. Hey, we got to $23. That was pretty close!  ;D
