Played ticket to ride for the firsy time in a years. Managed to span my network all the way across europe and get a 20 card. My friend made a network in western europe which branched out to practically every city and won. In hindsight, I think a good strategy would have been to draw ticket cards and when possible only keep ones which were already connected by my network. Instead, at the end I kept an additional card and tried to finish the route. Oh well, maybe next time I'll remember.

I guess the idea is that the "fraudsters" would have to opt out of every attestation, so after many requests, the client can be identified as likely refusing every attestation. I agree with your first point: many sites will do everything they can to get an attestation from the client.
