| − | {{card|Lich}} has the opposite effect, making you lose a turn. If you play a {{card|Lich}} and earn an extra turn on the same turn, the two effects cancel out; you just skip the extra turn and have your next normal turn as usual.

| − | I put less value on the exotic cases, and more value on the three-turns-in-a-row problem. It would be great to have everything perfect in all respects; this is what I have currently. Playing {{Card|Throne Room|Throne}} on {{Card|Outpost}} is super crazy exotic when the card makes it clear that it won't work. You won't do it! Asking what happens exactly then is just an intellectual exercise, or something important for programmers of the digital versions; it's not something that really happens in games. Whereas when you can take 3 turns in a row, you do it.

| − | It came up; otherwise I wouldn't have been thinking about it. I had multiple games where players could take three turns in a row. It sucked hard. I thought, damn Donald X., fix that. I fixed it. It wasn't just {{Card|Voyage}}; a variety of extra turn cards came up and we had the awful experience. Then {{Set|Allies}} was being reprinted and hey, good time to fix this.

| − | ===General Rule===
| |
| − | It was proposed that instead of changing cards to ban multiple extra turns, the rules could be changed so that you couldn't take more than 2 turns in a row.

| − | Having it just be a rule, no 3rd turns, was proposed, and considered, and wasn't good enough. If it were a new game, with an {{Card|Outpost}} in the main set, then it could be in the rules, even though every such rule is super bad, as players never learn them since they don't come up often enough. In Dominion especially, people expect the cards to tell them the rules. Anyway it's not the main set for a new game; it's these cards, and the way for people to know the rule is to put it on the cards. Then you can say, the cards could have treated it like a rule that they were reminding you of: "(Players can't take 3 turns in a row.)" And I mean that was considered too. I don't want a main set rulebook rule like "you can't take three turns in a row" with no way to take extra turns; that's how it is.

| − | "Cards can't cost less than {{Cost|0}}" is much different, because it's what everyone expects will be the rule if they don't know the rule, and when they don't know the rule it's very clear to them that they don't know it. As soon as they ask, "hey does it go to negative {{Cost}}," they know they don't know and can look it up. They never think "oh it probably goes to negative, la la la, let's not check." They think "of course it won't go negative" or "I don't know." Whereas! You can't tell that you don't know "you can't take 3 turns in a row"; there's no hint for you that a rule is missing. By default you sure think you can.
