What not to do with KC, Scheme, and Outpost:

  jtotheonah plays an Outpost.
   jtotheonah plays an Ironworks.
   ... gaining an Estate.
   ... drawing 1 card.
   jtotheonah plays 2 Golds, 3 Silvers, and 3 Coppers.
   jtotheonah buys a Colony.
   jtotheonah buys a Colony.
   jtotheonah buys a Province.
   jtotheonah buys a Province.
   jtotheonah puts a King's Court, a King's Court, a King's Court, a Grand Market, a King's Court, a Grand Market, a Grand Market, a Grand Market, a Festival, and a Swindler back on the deck (first on top).
   (jtotheonah draws: 3 King's Courts.)
   

   — jtotheonah's extra turn (from Outpost) —
   jtotheonah plays a King's Court.
   ... and plays a King's Court.
   ... ... and plays a King's Court.
   ... ... ... but plays no action with it.
   ... ... and plays the King's Court again.
   ... ... ... but plays no action with it.
   ... ... and plays the King's Court a third time.
   ... ... ... but plays no action with it.
   ... and plays the King's Court again.
   ... ... but plays no action with it.
   ... and plays the King's Court a third time.
   ... ... but plays no action with it.
   (jtotheonah draws: 4 Grand Markets and a King's Court.)

I think jo put it back in the order he wanted.  He just kind of forgot about the Outpost or something. :P

Yeah, you do get to pick the order. I'm not sure exactly what brain fart led to that, and it's not as if it actually mattered in the game. I thought it was just sort of a funny thing to share.

Obviously you did it on purpose to be even more of a showboat.

/don't even need this Outpost turn or 3 KC.

Now I understand your username; it's a typo and is supposed to have a "t" after the "j".

I had my own showboating FAIL yesterday (sorry, no log) on an odd set where the relevant cards were:  Bank, Saboteur, Fool's Gold, Hamlet, Cellar -- there was nothing else purchased over 2 value, not even a silver.  I picked up the lone Sab on a lark, since i had 2 cellars. 

anyhow, with duchies and FG piled, and 1 province left, i was five down.  draw: 3x FG, saboteur.  who wants to rub it in that i'd made the right choice by grabbing sab instead of duchy (i had) -- me.  who had one bank left after all (his only +2 value non-green in the deck) ?  he did.  who was going first that game?  me.  a few turns later, estates were piled too :-(
