Ability: Pay 2, discard agent, choose agent in archive. Put in your hand.
If I launch the ability when there is no agent, then the game crashed.

You mean no agent in your hand or archive or when? I don't even have a single one this i particularly remember it well cos I remember thinking it was some kind of secret card

When all conditions are in play (agent in hand and in the archive) it works OK.
Without an agent in the archive you get the agent back you discarded as part of the ability. So that's OK as well, but...
Without an agent to discard. I get a black screen with message "Unable to Discard", press confirm. ABBA got unresponsive (unable to double tap it, unable to target it with Slow Study, unable to play replace ABBA with another site and I got a ghost ABBA in my hand (empty card slot) as if it returned to my hand empty. It was scoring 1 point per day though.
So the game didn't crash (on my iPad 3), but it is bugged!

Should this be shifted to confirmed? Roebi seems to have confirmed it.

Confirmed, I get the same problem when I activate the ability with no agents in hand

I'm actually seeing a different, far worse bug with this card.
I've seen 3 or more people now who play this site, then somehow use its surprise ability to destroy one of my sites or agents - repeatedly. It's like having a permanent court order on the board, except it only costs 2 to use and can neutralize memories that are already in play.
I don't think anyone has used it to counter a launching memory yet, but once the opponent has this card down he can basically destroy 2 of my existing memories per day.
It's kind of sad that people are using this, but I've come to expect nothing more from some online gamers.

That's not a bug, it's a genuine combo with Maria Thorpe. You discard Maria, kill opponent's highest cost site/agent, and pick up Maria Thorpe again. It's evil and I don't like playing it, but it's genuine

I'm curious: How often do you guys still see this combo played? I haven't encountered it for, like 50 games or so...

Apparently cheesy combos are not that popular here. :]

Only against non forum goers. The people here would never be allowed to live it down.

I haven't played the combo. I wish I had thought of it before reading about it here, THEN I'd play it.
Maybe I should play it just vs Pete, though.

It's evil and I don't like playing it, but it's genuine Ah, that explains why I could never figure out how they were doing that, since I'd never see Maria Thorpe come into play. I also see that there is a discussion thread for this very combination, so I'll head over there instead. Thank you.
