:It just defines a "starting point" here. Imagine playing 4 player game, players A, B, C, and D. It's now A's turn, in which he plays {{Card|Swindler}}. Player B reveals a {{Cost|5}}-cost card, and for some reason player A chooses IGG for him to gain. There are 2 Curses left. Who's going to get those Curses? Player A (because it's his turn) and player C (because it was B who dealt the Curses, so B '''skips''' getting one by the "each ''other'' player" wording). If the rule was "the player to the left who gained IGG", the two Curses will be gained by players C and D. [[User:M knox|m_knox]] ([[User talk:M knox|talk]]) 05:09, 28 August 2020 (EDT)

This card works well with Bank. --217.84.142.159 18:42, 2 October 2015 (EDT)

Silver/Copper value

This article confuses me, claiming the card is worth the same as a silver and 3 IGG + 2 Copper is enough to buy a province. Needs to be checked for consistency.

  • When you play IGG, you can choose to gain a Copper to hand, which you can play immediately, as long as it's before you start buying cards. So 3 IGGs can give you 3 more Coppers in hand, which, along with 2 Coppers already there, can net you $8 for a Province. Werothegreat (talk) 15:31, 23 March 2016 (EDT)

FAQ question

When gaining IGG, everyone OTHER THAN the player who gained it gets a curse. HOWEVER, the FAQ goes to great lengths to say that, if there are not enough curses left, remaining curses are given out in player order, STARTING WITH THE PLAYER WHO GAINED THE IGG. Please explain the game logic of why the IGG-gaining player is suddenly getting a curse when the card clearly states he doesn't.

†The rulebook erroneously says "starting with the player to the left of the player who gained Ill-Gotten Gains" here.

It just defines a "starting point" here. Imagine playing 4 player game, players A, B, C, and D. It's now A's turn, in which he plays SwindlerSwindler.jpg. Player B reveals a $5-cost card, and for some reason player A chooses IGG for him to gain. There are 2 Curses left. Who's going to get those Curses? Player A (because it's his turn) and player C (because it was B who dealt the Curses, so B skips getting one by the "each other player" wording). If the rule was "the player to the left who gained IGG", the two Curses will be gained by players C and D. m_knox (talk) 05:09, 28 August 2020 (EDT)
