Lanz!
I still forget to do this when I haven't played him for a while.
Make sure you time playing your thiefs/other Lanz right, whether putting them in your hq or when campaigning.
If your careful with your timing ( sometimes waiting a few seconds until another thief or Lanz has resolved) you can greatly accelerate the the stats gain rate.

Similar: If your agents are almost recovered in HQ and you cast La Volpe; make sure you cast Volpe out FIRST, BEFORE sending your agents to campaign. This way, when Volpe is fully 'summoned', all current theives on board gets +2.

Most common mistake I make: Playing in the early morning before finishing my coffee.
I am such a bad player if I can't think clearly.

I have had a couple different people bounce my mysterious strangers recently. Silly new players.

That happens to me too. Even when there are better bounce targets.

I would add one that I encounter a lot: "overscoring"
For example, early in the game, you have one low site and 2 weak agents. I see a lot of player sending all their strength in one region, agents scoring in the region you already have one site in. Sometimes to the point of sending an agent with power 3 to a region where there is a site at 1 influence and already 8 points in... Anyway that might be exagerated, but you get the principle

Be cognizant of the timing involved when using actions that have you looking through the archive, your opponent's hand, or your sequence. If you time these effects poorly it can cause you to miss your window to play a site properly, or a discard effect, etc etc.

Blast!

I played a ton of AD and discard etc and part of the fun was making sure the timing was right. Not many beginners have AD, but it's probably still a valid comment for beginners given that other cards open various carousels.

Throwing your weak to medium sites at an opponents strong site, especially San gimignano, particularly if he already has 10 in the region. For example, someone dropping a forli in the same region as my San gimignano, where I already had 10 influence. If I hadn't scored yet, maybe... But he just wasted a potential game winner, for absolutely nothing, I still controlled the region, and I was still even scoring in it. Lean when to write a region off, and when to compete for it...
