I think for RC/CotR what there needs to be is just a little button: "Call a Reserve card."  It hovers in the spot currently taken by "End Actions".  The only reason you should ever be asked if you want to call RC (this does not apply to CotR in the least, we can make assumptions like there are for Moat) should be when you involve Throne Room et al.  Golem and Herald in particular will need this.

Definitely read RC as rat catcher.  I thought having the button there all of the time grayed out would be awful and that you were trolling

Well, I read a post somewhere where they said 7 cards were already coded. I'm guessing it was the super easy cards like Port.

But... but how are they going to change the number of cards in the pile!?!?!?!?!? :O

They did it for Rats. And, VP cards change from 8 to 12 depending on the amount of players playing. That seems a pretty easy thing for them to do.

On a scrying pool engine my opponent opened Potion/Silver and I went for Potion/Pawn. Apparently my opponent was very impressed with my Pawn buy, because on turn 3 with $4P in play he also bought a Pawn.

Surely at least this one isn't MF's fault.  Unless you're criticizing their automatch functionality?

I believe he's doing exactly that.  No one should be matched with Stef who would buy Pawn with $4P on a Pool board.

Luckily nobody would ever make a mouseslip.

One of the exceptionally few things that Goko had better than Isotropic is that it's really hard to misclick with the little plus signs.

Maybe it's 7 of the 12 ports?

Also, is everything really fuzzy for anyone else?

Well, it looks like there is no web build yet, so I believe MF just announced my hiatus from dominion. Sad day.

Telling paying customers they can no longer play seems like a really huge problem to me.

Why can't iguanaiguana continue to play?

It appears to be available only on PC, Mac, and Linux.  He (and several others, I believe) have stated they only play on mobile.  The old web version was usable on mobile.  The new version isn't.

They've said they're going to start beta testing an Android version.  iguanaiguana, you should definitely sign up for it.

True for me. I do my home computing on an iPad.

No iPad app & no browser version = no dominion for me.

[iguanaiguana]

I typically play on a chromebook, so I need a web build but I'm not mobile. I do have an android, but I'm not keen on signing up for a closed beta I guess? I don't really want to report bugs. I just want to be a paying customer of dominion?

[Elanchana]

Tried the browser version today.



Um.

Prolly buy moat, that's their new "curse" attack.

FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, THESE CARDS HAVE BEEN REDACTED.

[Gveoniz]

Are they Moats?

I've played a bunch of games today too. Very similar experiences all the time.
People buying coppers because the have buys to spare (goons not included), people building up their fairgrounds score even though it's not on the board.
Players not answering at all when you chat to them.
It was sort of fun for a day, but it won't stay fun very long.

I had a Bishop-Fortress-Scheme-Rabble game against an opponent who bought Coppers on spare buys, starting on turn 2, and who didn't resign until I had over 110 points.

I guess it took him a while to find the resign button

They've stopped transmitting the card images to cut down on the thousands of dollars a month server costs.

I just found out they implemented a reconnect feature in the new client.

* just like the last version, it claimed I reconnected out of the blue. My internet connection never actually died.
* just like last version, I could just see the game at the point where I supposedly got stuck.
* just like last version, I could still chat with my opponent, but all other functionality in the game was frozen.
* unlike last version, I could still resign the game

yay, progress.

I downloaded the new version today.  Tried to play the online web browser version, it never loaded.  Downloaded the windows version.  Opened it and it popped up in full screen.  I tried to change the display and open it again but now it doesn't even open.

Really didn't want to spend time trying to make it work because I primary play on my work laptop at lunch (hence the reason I didn't want full screen) and when I'm home.  Downloading it was something I wasn't sure I was going to do but I wanted to play at lunch really bad today.

Anyways it seems like the new version has a lot of things wrong with it and I don't feel like downloading a patch.  I am really not a computer person at all.  Websites are easy to use, everything else is like Chinese to me.

So goko going off line will probably prevent me from playing in the up coming dominion league.  I really consider myself an above average player but I still do it very casually so trying to figure this out and make this new version work on my computer doesn't seem worth it.  Which is sad.

Or I could just be lazy.  What do you think?  Maybe I'll start playing again if they ever release Adventures.

Got paired with someone who used Horn of Plenty to gain an Estate.

If I were implementing Dominion, I'd actually do the opposite and start with the hard cards. The reason is that if you try to implement a card like Band of Misfits and realize that you need to redesign your rules engine as a result, it takes less effort to implement the redesign if you don't already have a ton of cards implemented with the old design.
