Mountebank/Trader interaction

Just FYI in the off chance it's helpful....

The Trader implementation has, of course, the strange property that after you reveal it to take a silver instead of X, you can then reveal it *again* to take silver instead of the *silver*, etc.

The problem with that is just that it trains the player to click "Reveal", "Done"; just like we're trained to click "Moat", "Done" whenever we want to Moat something.

So I just got Mountebanked and I ended up accepting the copper when I could have gotten a silver instead. :-)

And in the game log, it doesn't explain which card the silver you got was gained in place of; it just says that you are about to get a curse and a copper, then it says that you got a silver "instead", but doesn't say instead of what.

Presumably the interface acts in the same way as for the watchtower?

^I think the difference is that it asks you about the curse, then the copper, then the silver, then the other silver, and the OP expected curse, then silver, then copper, then silver.
