Throne Room/Lighthouse bug, or "I want my $2!"

I do have a screenshot of this, if anyone's interested, but I played Throne room/Lighthouse and it did not give me $2 during the turn, and I also did not get anything from Lighthouse on the following turn.  It seemed like a bug.  Really, it was $3 that went missing.  Three dollars, a province, and possibly the game, but you never know.  I'm still a level 0 because I always almost win.

I strongly suspect you're mistaken about what happened. Let's see that screenshot? and the gamelog, too.

okay, gotta see if I remember how to login to photobucket.  Oh, you're right, it says I had played the Lighthouse with a Throne room.  Sorry, I'm just senile.

p.s.  It looks like game logs are not available same day?  Well, one good thing to come of this is I know how to use council room now.

The wording may be a bit awkard, because the effects are not summed up.

If you KC a Wharf, you don't see: You draw 6 Cards and get 3 Buys

You see: You draw 2 Cards and get 1 Buy
You KC'd
You draw 2 Cards and get 1 Buy
You draw 2 Cards and get 1 Buy

The gamelog's available on isotropic as soon as the game's over. If you don't grab the link before leaving the page, yeah, you'll have to wait for CR.com to scrape it and then look it up there the next day.

But anyway, the screenshot is clear. Nothing to see here.

From the screenshot it seems like your turn 16 starts with
"You get +1$ from your Lighthouse
You had played the Lighthouse with a Throne Room
You get +1$ from your Lighthouse"

These 3 lines indicate that you got the on-your-next-turn benefit from your Lighthouse at the start of turn 16 so you must have played the Lighthouse with the Throne Room on turn 15.
Since you hadn't played any Lighthouse (they were only "in play" because they are Durations from the previous turn),
you won't get any Duration benefit on your Turn 17 and therefore no Province.

PS: Duration cards work only 2 turns: The turn they are played (upper part of the text) and the next turn (part under the line). At the cleanup of the 2nd turn they are discarded and stop giving bonuses on your turns until they are played again.

I hope this explains it.

Sorry for this wall of text, as it seems like in your second post you saw your mistake.
