Believe it or not this by itself has been posted one other time in the entirety of this thread.

What is difficult to believe, that someone thought of it before Joseph, or that it had only been posted once in 2600 posts?

Why is that really bad?

[Marcory]

Because in order for it to be effective you have to have a terrible deck.

If you've trashed your coppers and estates, then you will have to either name good cards or else have this card be worse than copper. If you have enough coppers and curses in your deck for this card to be effective, then you're probably losing anyway.

I could have just listed Fishing Village, Spice Merchant, Forager, and Warehouse, which I actually think are much better than that thing because they're all non-terminal, but I'm trying to get my Respect/Posts ratio up to at least 1 and I'm SO CLOSE! I can only afford to make posts that are nothing-but-snark at this point.

Anyone wanna help a brah out?

As an aside, I only just noticed, wow my P:R ratio is almost one as well. That's crazy.

It's pretty lame if your P:R ratio is bigger than his R:P ratio, though.

Well it's bad, but not, like, absurdly bad.  If it had a benefit, it would be a weaker junker.  It just seems like it could be tweaked to be a real card.

actually, it also has +2$, i just forgot to add that. it was a card that i designed for my set, but it died during playtesting, that's why i thought it was funny to post it here, even though noone would get it

Ah I see.. I thought it sounded almost like a real card. What made it die during playtesting?  What Marcory brought up?

no. the idea of the card was to reward good deck tracking, and that just didn't work. you would name estate and copper, every time. i should've seen that coming, that's why it was a bad idea. naming one instead of two doesn't solve the problem, it's still less about deck tracking then about having a bad card on top and not a good card.

i considered something like "if it's the first named card, your op. gains a copy, if it's the second, you gain a copy if it's not a victory card" but that's just a jester with penality. not interesting.

Ha, it should be like interactive, each player has to name the next digit going left.  Failure is either an increasing penalty or all other players get an increasing bonus.

Maybe, although this idea might be better for Strip Dominion.
