I wish I had a game log to post where I use that card to make an improbable comeback.
Title: Re: Anagrams
Post by: AJD on February 21, 2012, 12:05:05 am
Alchemist: The Claims
("I can synthesize a universal solvent! I can convert lead into gold! I have discovered the secret to eternal youth!")

Ambassador: Or Amass Bad
(That's what the card does, all right.)

Contraband: Don't Ban Car
("Aw, man! I really wanted to buy a Car!")

Embargo: Go Bar Me
("I dare you. Just put an Embargo token on Car and see what I'll do.")

Familiar: I Am Frail
(All those curses are bad for your health.)

Forge: Gofer
("Hey, you! Go get me something whose cost is exactly the sum of these other costs!")

Gardens: Dangers
(All those geese wandering around the gardens biting people, for example.)

Great Hall: All Gather
(Plenty of space in the hall for everyone.)

Hamlet: Thelma
("Hey hon, what can I do for you? One action and one buy? Sure thing, hon, I'll just need two cards.... Have a nice day, now.")

Harem: Am Her
(...and her, and her, and her...)

Minion: No, I'm In!
(Those four new cards are in a hurry to push out your old hand.)

Native Village: At All I've Given
(...You're going to give it back now, right?)

Saboteur: Beat Sour
(How you feel when your opponent King's Courts it on you.)

Spice Merchant: The Nice Cramps
(What you feel when you draw it with no Coppers.)

Transmute: Turns Meat
(...into Gold? Or maybe into a Duchy?)

Treasure Map: Me, A Trap? Sure!
(Sure!)

Tribute: Rebut It
("I hereby intend to prove that when your opponent plays Tribute it does not, in fact, hurt you.")

Woodcutter: To Crude Two
(They're sawing that tree pretty crudely, anyway.)
Title: Re: Anagrams
Post by: AJD on December 17, 2013, 11:51:04 pm
Candlestick Maker: Sack Terminal Deck
(Build your deck out of these nonterminals instead!)

Cultist: Cut List
(It jumps to the head of the pack of $5 attacks.)

Hermit: The Rim
(He's on the very edge of his sanity.)

Jack of all Trades: Flake Jolts a Card
("Hey, airhead, you trashed this Estate right out of my hand.")

Masterpiece: Meets a Price
(…of $1 per extra Silver.)

Merchant Guild: Lug Them In, Card
(The more you lug in, the more coin tokens I get.)

Noble Brigand: Gold be in Barn
("I'll take you right to it! Just don't hurt me!")

Oracle: O, Clear
("O, clear these cards off the top of my deck, mighty Oracle!")

Procession: Nope, I Cross
(Nothing stands in the way of the king's Procession.)

Rats: Star
(It's Donald X's favorite.)

Sage: Ages
(He's quite old.)

Silk Road: Risk Load
(It's a dangerous journey to make with valuable merchandise.)

Spoils: Is Slop
(No wonder you get it out of your deck as soon as you use it.)

Stonemason: Toss One Man
(…and gain two cheaper men)

Storeroom: More Roots
(So that's what you keep down there.)

Wandering Minstrel: Warm Listening Nerd
(A minstrel's best audience.)

This is somewhat relevant. (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=5385.0)
Also, we already know which is the best Village, don't we? It's pretty easy to prove, too:

I always assumed your name (A Drowned Kernel) was itself an anagram for your real name, but I have no idea what that would be since the anagram engines online don't output proper nouns.

For a bijection, we just need each digit to appear infinitely many times, which I still don't think is known for either number, but the joke works in base 2 at least.
