FAQ
Official FAQ
- You draw cards even if you did not trash a card.
- One way to keep count of the number of cards trashed is to put them on the trash sideways.
Other Rules clarifications
- This counts the number of trashing events, not necessarily the number of actual cards trashed. For example, if the person to your right trashed a single copy of Fortress multiple times, you would get +1 Card for each trashing[1]

I tried to make an interactive trasher that cared about the trash. At first it counted copies of itself in the trash, to determine how many times you could trash a card or gain a Silver. Then it counted Actions in the trash, and divided the count by 2. A bunch of versions followed, trying to zero in on the good parts of the card. Some versions gained a card that varied in cost with the trash; at first it could get Province. Some had a threshold rather than scaling with the trash. And well then I tried to think of what other way a trasher could be interactive, and came up with Goatherd and hooray, it was better. At first it counted all trashes, then it shifted to only ones you personally trashed, at Matt's suggestion.
