Theory's Law: As a thread on f.DS gets longer, the probability of it derailing into Goko-bashing and pining for isotropic Dominion approaches 1.

[Marcory]

So you're comparing Goko to Hitler? There's so much meta going on that I don't know where to begin 

[Awaclus]

Comparing Goko to Hitler is a little bit too offensive...

Hitler would totally be offended by that.

Isotropic is going down?

Potentially some information about when the promo will appear.

[Emeric]

Is this cards will be available on goko immediatly ?

[Donald X.]

Is this cards will be available on goko immediatly ?

I suspect they will not have it up as soon as the physical version is available (due to when they get given it or how quickly they get to it), but I do expect they will add it, and will prioritize adding it.

That being said, I wouldn't expect it to be implemented quickly, assuming it's more on the order of Black Market and Stash (rather than Envoy, Walled Village, and Governor). Basically, if it needs a new interface to do its thing, I expect it to take awhile.

Here's a secret about the promo that perhaps it's time to reveal:

LastFootnote playtested the promo.

Sorry if I was being too obvious about that.

Anyway, now that the secret's out, I will just say that I expect that it will take quite a while to correctly implement the promo on Dominion Online. Unless MakingFun's programmers are way better than Goko's were.

Also, I will say that the new promo is lots of fun and easily my favorite promo card thus far!

[jsh357]

Based on my experience, I would say the new card adds even more variety to Dominion.

How did you get to be a playtester?

Who, me or jsh357?

[SirPeebles]

When we look at final compilation of Dominion lore, he may be the LastFootnote.

[SirPeebles]

The thing about promo cards is that they are designed as promotional tools.  I don't know the history on the existing promos, but wasn't Stash published to commemorate Dominion winning the SdJ?  And Governor and Walled Village for anniversaries of Puerto Rico and Carcassonne?

What is happening this year that would prompt a promo?  My guess is that this will be the online-only promo intended to promote Goko.

No, that's separate. I believe it's been made clear that this is a physical promo.

When/where was this?  The only info I have is from that BGG thread.

Huh, you may be right that it wasn't made clear. Perhaps I misremembered. Sorry about that. I think he would have specified if he meant online-only promo, though. Otherwise people will be upset when they expected a physical one. Someone can ask Donald to confirm.

This exchange makes more sense now.  Sorry if it made you uncomfortable.

It did not, and it wouldn't be your fault if it did. I'm just glad I didn't actually let anything slip!

You, and also jsh if that comment was an implied "I was also a playtester".  Which I suppose it really was, though it could have been facetious for all I know.

Well sure.  But you know, your statement true for me too.   There aren't really any cues which way you meant it.

How did you get to be a playtester?

My old online Dominion playtesters are mostly gone to the four winds (Jeff Wolfe is still playtesting stuff for me, and Wei-Hwa discussed the card wording with me). I wanted another outside playtester, in particular just as another data point on how fun the card was. I looked at some posters here and on BGG. LastFootnote was especially active and was still playing. So I offered up playtesting the promo and he went for it.

I play at public game nights with whoever shows up wanting to play, so that's a good way to be a playtester. Someone eHunt knows played with the promo that way.

[SirPeebles]

So where did you play test it if Goko didn't implement it?  Did you meet up with Donald in person?  Did you play on iso?

[Ozle]

I was asked to be a play tester but i turned it down because im too cool
