Collectible Card Game Headquarters

Describe the Bug:
Another error probably when AI thinks to activate Gauntlets of Chaos.It happened both times the turn after AI had played Gauntlets of Chaos (the turn it played it AI both times didn't have enough mana to activate it),showed this card_instance error:

and then this:

and finally:

and then crashed.
Also Gauntlets of Chaos probably ruins the savegames as it enters as I saved the game as soon as AI played it but the game got corrupted nonetheless.
Which card did behave improperly ?
Gauntlets of Chaos

Which update are you using?(date,name)Which type(Duel,Gauntlet,Sealed Deck)
Jan 01, 2014 : Commanding the revision of Ice Age v2 - DUEL

What exactly should be the correct behavior/interaction ?
Gauntlets of Chaos

Are any other cards possibly affected by this bug ?
-

The bug happens to player,too.At least when I tried to exchange AI's Dong Jhungua 3/3 with my 1/1 insect token.I got this parameters error:

(sorry Korath but I didn't expect a 2nd bad parameters error and didn't save the first dump.dmp and it saves only the last report.
then this parameters error above:

Fixed the crash in 6893d77. It was the result of a design flaw in the engine that we run into more or less continuously, but isn't really fixable. (Cards that have completely left play - like Gauntlets of Chaos after it's been sacrificed - indicate that by setting their id to -1, so we can't tell what they used to be.)

Still needs work; three obvious errors are that it picks your opponent's permanent first; that it always destroys auras, and does so before exchanging control instead of after; that it doesn't actually destroy auras attached to either of the permanents, but anything with subtype 44 (which includes all artifact creatures, but not all auras) which currently has one of them as their first target, or whose first target was most recently one of them.

Fixed the three bugs Korath reported in 34b81c0

Asks for you to target the correct thing you control, then asks for a target opponent controls (could it figure out what you picked first an make the second help text intelligent, so that if you picked a creature it asks for a target creature the second time instead of target creature, artifact or land?). But then it doesn't do anything. Control is not exchanged and auras are not destroyed.

Since almost 20 days have passed after this report, I think this is already fixed, could someone confirm this ?

Rechecked. Help text is still not intelligent, but more importantly,when Gauntlets of Chaos tries to resolve (after targets are chosen) game crashes.

Confirmed crash in mini5, on both side



Also a minor bug is that Mishra's Workshop does not consider Gauntlets of Chaos activation as artifact spell :pnot bug

it shouldn't...

Already fixed, as I mentioned in the other bug report with the same name.

Not sure if it is a problem with Gauntlets of Chaos (which are working just fine apart form this) or something else. But when I used Gauntlets of Chaos to swap lands and one was enchanted by Spreading Algae the legacy card that Spreading Algae uses to return to hand was put in play and remained there until another action was taken (and Spreading Algae remained in the gy until the legacy card went away at which time it returned to hand).

Reported here because Spreading Algae does not exhibit that behavior when destroyed by either Naturalize or a Nevinyrral's Disk.

See attached save for illustration.
