I just trashed a Fool's Gold to my Spice Merchant... so that I'd have a +buy to use with the other 5 Fool's Golds in my hand... so that I could double-Province to end the game.

Just played a game where I spent $12 on a curse to end the game.

And who ever said Colonies were strictly better than Curses?

Yeah, I really want for there to have been one Colony left in the supply and Morgrim decided to buy the curse instead.

Just lost a game because I tried to Ambassador the last Province while ahead... only to realise he had a Lighthouse out. Sad times.

But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

I lost a game where I Ambassador'd the last Province because I miscounted how many points we each had.

... So all that happened was you wasted your Action, and he was far enough behind that just getting the last Province wouldn't win, and yet he won on his turn anyway? Had he been slowly building up a megaturn deck in spite of your Ambassadoring or something?

I think he bought a Province and something else. I had 1 coin, BTW, so couldn't even buy an Estate.

I passed a Treasury with Masquerade, because I needed $1 more for a Colony and knew my opponent would pass me a Copper.

I also accidentally passed a Colony, but it got passed back to me on a later turn.

I lost that game, but I didn't feel bad about losing it at all.

Couldn't you have just played the Treasury for the +$1?

A few weeks ago, I was playing IRL, and my opponent revealed a hand of five curses. That feels so good!

Yeah, I drew it dead.

Just Feasted a Feast into a Feast, which I then drew after triggering a reshuffle on my turn. Feasted it into a Feast to get a three-pile.

Now I want to see someone three-pile by playing TR-TR-Feast for two Feasts, then Golem to turn those Feasts into two more Feasts and those Feasts into the last two Feasts.

Gluttony!

Earlier in the turn I played a Young Witch with my action.  I just don't know how to copy paste from the prettified log, and didn't want to type the entire turn.

I don't know if this count, but I recently pulled off a FV+FV+3Goons a few times in my last game. Coincidentally, the score was 100 to 35 to 18, with me on top.

My brother has one where he discards copper to discarding attacks then uses counting house though.
