Hmm, I'm unfortunately not confident who is the best contact but I cam try to find that out (also sorry for slow reply)

I don't think I realized how jetlagged I was until I passed out for 14hrs lol

Hmm can investigate

Yeah intended

Got something logged for that. Seems like it isn't force quitting due to inaction atm

Well it is 50/50 who goes first (assuming equal board size) but they also trigger down the line left to right, so depending on positioning they could be favored to trigger first

Hmm it's *technically* not a bug since faceless becomes an exact copy and the minion you copied already gave its spellcraft spell. But it definitely feels bad so could be worth changing

What were the quests?

Yeah this isn't the mid-season update, just a big balance patch. More coming soon™️

It is technically correct that it doesn't scale with reborn

Did a pretty good job reading this year! Averaged more than a book per week. Also 20 of those books were The Dresden Files lmao.

Already have my next few books lined up, so excited for next year!

So far I've been rate limited 3 times and had to call my bank to remove a hold cause I looked like suspicious activity lol

I suffer this same problem every year 😪

So begins the annual tradition of "trying to gift people things on Steam and getting a combination of 1) rate limited; and 2) having to struggle to figure out which games can be sent across regions; resulting in a multi-day process."

Happy holidays folks 🎄

A collection of games and swag collected while at PAX Unplugged, including Slay the Spire, Lorcana, Orichalcum, Lord of the Rings Trick Taking Game, and a mug from Hugs Ceramics.

So I unfortunately caught the con plague but I did manage to get quite the haul while at PAX Unplugged!

You mean like before/after kind of stuff right, not the current pool?

Hmm I thought we'd added handspace protection to tickatus. Will investigate.

Boy I sure do love spilling my full drink on the stack of important documents on my desk. Yay.

Yeah it is definitely a bit weird but technically not a bug

Thanks for the report!

It's something we've talked about a few times, but don't have any current plans to add discard/sell from hand atm. It's the kind of change that can have a lot of unintended technical and gameplay implications so we'd want to do it very carefully if at all

Unintentional sounds like a bug

Do you have a clip?

Can you elaborate on why you feel it's worse?

Logged!

Yup we have a fix coming very soon
