Black Market question - do you only have it and Base?

I'm curious to see what happens when you only have Black Market and the base game.  I recently played with BM in the kingdom, and it made a deck of 25 cards.  Now, I have all the expansions, but someone with just the base set would not have enough non-Kingdom cards to make a 25 card deck.  I need a volunteer who only has Base and Black Market to find out whether

a) Goko makes a <25 card deck  (edit: wow, for a physics graduate student, I sure can't math.)

or b) Goko nicely gives you a copy of cards you haven't bought

If it's b), that would actually be pretty cool, since it means Black Market not only reaches into other games, but into expansions you don't even have access to normally.  Talk about an underground economy.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's

c) Goko gives you a 25 card deck consisting of all the base game cards, and the Kingdom piles will probably have only 9 cards each too.

My guess is d) Goko makes a < 25 card deck.  It will simply stop adding to the Black Market deck when it has run out of cards.

That's what I meant to put for a).  Fixed.

15 card Black Market deck.

So it works with what you've got - great.  Thanks, Rabid!

it's actually a 16 card BM deck - there are only 9 base kingdom cards because BM takes up a kingdom card spot.

My guess would have been
e) Goko puts copper, silver, gold, estate, duchy, province and curse in the black market deck.

To be perfectly fair to Goko, there are "randomizers" for those cards in the base Dominion set...
