[Drab Emordnilap]

#6 (tie) - Beggar by Drab Emordnilap with 9 points (Raspberry)
$2 - Action
+1 Card
+$1
Each other player may trash a Treasure from his hand. You gain all of these trashed cards; put them into your hand. If no player trashes a treasure this way, +$1.

There's too much going on here. It started out as kind of a "beggars can't be choosers" idea, where you get some random card, and come coppers, and here, have a buck too. But it just got all muddled in tweaking.

What I would submit in hindsight:

Beggar
$2 - Action
Each other player may trash a Treasure from his hand. You gain all of these trashed cards; put them into your hand. If no player trashes a treasure this way, +3 Cards.

If you don't give me some coppers, I'll go look elsewhere! Thoughts?

I like the new version a lot better, but I'm still not sure it has much utility. Maybe it would be useful in Curse slogs / alt VP?

Yeah, I never perceived it would be very useful in a normal Province game. It'd be better in those awful slogs where you're fighting over Estates because that's all you can afford and please god I would love some Copper when will this hell end
