Not a lot to say about it, just thought this was a silly little game.

Am a little curious if you all agree on the Governor/Chapel opening - I only ended up playing Chapel once.

Definitely Governor-Chapel, it's one of the best openings and I agree with ehunt, your one Chapel play was significant.
Great game log. Thx for sharing.

One of the most interesting elements of this game is using Governor as part of an engine-building strategy rather than going for a Governor megaturn. Using Governor early to remodel an Estate to a Bridge is subtle but really smart.

I feel like it's a sign that you spend too much time on dominion strategy if Governer makes you think of a megaturn rather than more straightforward things like, hey, I can upgrade my estate or draw some cards.

maybe i'm doing it wrong but i go for megaturn like 10x more often than i remodel estates than draw cards.

My point is that there are a few cards with such powerful self synergy that you can get a pretty good strategy going by purchasing virtually nothing else.  Governor, Minion, Ill-Gotten Gains, and Hunting Party are a few examples.  It seems that we've become so accustomed to the respective spamming strats, that to use one of these cards in isolation appears subtle.
