Interesting Finish to a Unique Game

I just played a game where I achieved something that I have rarely had a chance to do before and certainly not in manner of which I did it.  I won the game where the final turn required me to buy both VP Cards and Curse cards.  And I'll answer the first questions immediately, I did NOT need to get fairgrounds up to another level with the buying of the curse and I was not emptying the Curses with some Goons in play.

The last turn I use Remake to double activate my Cities.  I am then able to draw them.  I am left with $9 to spend and 5 buys.  Both of us are at 0 points having trashed our starting estates.  With 4 Native Villages left, if I buy them out, I have no money left for a VP card.  However, with Curses at 4 due to my opponents Familiars, the other option is.... Province/4xCurse for a 2 point win.

Hello.  Name's Bruce.  It's all right.  I understand.  Why trust a shark, right?

Is quite curious - Who is the mystical "Celestial Chameleon"?

+1 for double City activation

Edit: oh wait, I thought you meant you activated it both levels with one remake...

I'll leave the +1 because it's still pretty cool. :P

Yeah... not quite that cool unfortunately.  But the pile did go from 2 to 0 with that 1 remake on the last turn, so it's still not that shabby.
