I guess you guys will use all new wordings on the cards? This creates the curious situation where some cards will play differently online than physically, as long as the new versions remain unpublished. ...
Yes, we will use the new wordings wherever we can.
No, I don't expect any confusion to come from that.
Can I ask why not? All sources of rules (like these forums, the rules forums on BGG, my document and, I assume, the wiki, plus of course the actual second edition rulebook implicitly) will state that you now are not allowed to look at the cards when you're drawing. According to Donald, new wordings on unpublished cards are not in effect yet and should not be followed (not even "leaked"). But nevertheless the new online Dominion platform will work differently for Stash. I mean, I guess people are used to bugs, so maybe you're saying that people will just chalk it up as another bug. That's hardly the same as "not
any confusion" though.
Actually I'm a little confused as to why it's okay for the new platform to use new wordings before (maybe months or years before) they are published, but it's not okay to refer to them as official rules. I mean, is it okay to refer to them as official rules after the new platform goes live, or not even then..?
Edit: Maybe what I'm not seeing, is that using them online is in fact publishing them? So that they will be officially published at that point?
