[Cave-o-sapien]

I recently played a game against someone who deserved to win and could have won with a 3-pile ending, but refused to take it. I won the next turn. I was stunned. This was not merely a case of not seeing the 3-pile. I asked about it in chat, and they suggested that they don't do 3-pile endings.

Is that a thing? Is there some subset of players who consider that a lesser victory?

If players really do hate 3-pile endings, they'll blacklist you after the game, and you can blacklist them.  Take the win.

That is such a weird way to play, especially given that for some kingdoms (e.g. Beggar-Gardens) it would be incredibly painful to try to empty the Provinces with such rubbish decks.

(I noticed something while reading that ancient thread, and I don't want to bump it, so I'll just post this stupid conspiracy theory joke here):


Can this be a coincidence...?

If there were an attack card that gave someone a curse every time they bought something during their turn, I would be satisfied.

... or did he leave after finally being satisfied that there was a way to properly defend against premature three-piling?

But then there's the horrible realisation that Swamp Hag also helps you 3-pile.

He probably left after realizing that he was still banned.
