Okay, logs as promised - and in a place where nobody will see them.
Game 1:
http://www.gokosalvager.com/static/logprettifier.html?http://dominion-game-logs.s3.amazonaws.com/game_logs/20160712/log.0.1468349551364.txtI go for trashing first and heralds second while Lekkit goes for heralds first, but is able to get to trashing quickly enough. I decide at some point to buy Gold over a Conspirator, but it does not come back to haunt me as we each decide to take the sure tie rather than mess with our somewhat delicate decks.
Game 2:
http://www.gokosalvager.com/static/logprettifier.html?http://dominion-game-logs.s3.amazonaws.com/game_logs/20160712/log.0.1468350032991.txtI open Jack because it is Jack and Lekkit opens Miser, at which point I see the half-engine and prepare to lose. Then I get this awesome draw the second shuffle and decide that Jack + HP should work as a money strategy (it does, but not very well). It ends up being quick enough that Lekkit decides they needs to start catching up in points, and miscounts their way to a one point loss, although it is questionable whether delaying a turn would have made a difference.
Game 3:

Lekkit ends up with a 5/2, which is a bit unfortunate, but not not losing. We both go for approximately the same money strategy, and I win with a province after they bet against me being able to reach it.
Game 4:
http://www.gokosalvager.com/static/logprettifier.html?http://dominion-game-logs.s3.amazonaws.com/game_logs/20160712/log.0.1468351117646.txtIt was my turn to try an engine and come up short, although noticing that bank existed would have helped me both in not making that decision and may have helped me quite a bit even after making it. Lekkit goes Wharf/Bank and although I am able to keep pace with it for a little bit, my Apothecary engine, like most others, stalls hard on green and they run away with the victory.
Game 5:
http://www.gokosalvager.com/static/logprettifier.html?http://dominion-game-logs.s3.amazonaws.com/game_logs/20160712/log.0.1468352160365.txtI had this dream of playing a bunch of Minions with Grand Markets followed by a bunch of Soldiers and going out in a blaze of green glory buying all the provinces in one turn. Losing the Minion split did not help at all with that plan, but I pulled it together just enough for two turns to obtain a lead that was fairly insurmountable without me hitting a few duds and Lekkit building up. A person looking at the log will not appreciate how I carefully played my copper even when I did not need to in order to put chains over the Grand Market pile and prevent Lekkit from seeing how low it was getting, a trick which allowed me to whimper the game to an end.
Game 6:
http://www.gokosalvager.com/static/logprettifier.html?http://dominion-game-logs.s3.amazonaws.com/game_logs/20160712/log.0.1468352887540.txtA super ugly game with Haunted Woods as the only draw. We split the curses but Lekkit having more Haunted Woodses allowed them to line up provinces with tournament while I was unable to do so. Lekkit got to over 50% VP and with our decks as miserable as they were I resigned to save time.
Game 7:
http://www.gokosalvager.com/static/logprettifier.html?http://dominion-game-logs.s3.amazonaws.com/game_logs/20160712/log.0.1468353651406.txtA Sea Hag war gave into building back up through trashing. I decided to go super-thin and try something elaborate but lost too much time doing so as Lekkit smartly began to buy provinces. I put a final nail in my coffin by playing a haggler instead of butchering it and the resulting junk prevented me from having any chance of taking advantage of two piles being empty.
Game 8:
http://www.gokosalvager.com/static/logprettifier.html?http://dominion-game-logs.s3.amazonaws.com/game_logs/20160712/log.0.1468354130016.txtHey, we ignored peasant! I was tempted to try to do a megaturn with Miser, but decided I would be better off keeping it simple. My version of money involved thinning a little and getting lots of Fool's Gold whereas Lekkit's was Bandit Camp with Baron. The game ended up loser than I thought it would, and the speed with which I was able to nearly single-handedly empty the Provinces killed any thought that there may have been a fancy strategy that actually worked well enough to pursue.
