Platinum. Too easy.

A hint/warning for all: This puzzle is much easier for Americans of a certain age range.

1. Blooki's hint is accurate. I don't expect the puzzle to be do-able if you don't know a certain common reference (common here is with respect to somebody from the US -but I imagine it's a reference you likely know no matter where you are from.)

2. The order of the cards matters. There is at least one substitute that would work just as well for most of the cards on the list and a lot of substitutes for some of them. But there's only one correct answer.

3. You need to know very little about Dominion to get this puzzle.

I find this amusing. This puzzle goes to Colony.

@DStu, yes, that's the reference. @Kuildeous, can you explain the colony joke?

In the movie, "This Is Spinal Tap," there is a scene where one of the band members has his volume knob go beyond 10 and to 11. The emphasis is that the interviewer asks why he can't just have 10 louder, and the guitarist keeps insisting that his amp is louder than all the others because theirs only go to 10, while his goes to 11. Great scene and great movie.

So, now, any time I talk about how great something is, I say that it goes to 11. This time, I can say it goes to Colony.
