Blood Artist only triggers for its death when the opponent casts Damnation.

AI keeps activating Frenetic Sliver's ability for no reason.

Going through my decks again to check current state (as advised in How to Provide a Useful Bug Report point 5

• Possibility Storm:
  Possibility Storm is on the battlefield (played by me, fwiw). Casting an Instant (say, Searing Spear). Possibility Storm resolves and finds and offers to play Infernal Plunge, which is a Sorcery. Reverse as well: Infernal Plunge is cast, Possibility Storm offers to play Warleader's Helix.
  both directions still present in svn (r22131)
  
• 2 Possibility Storms:
  Both triggered abilities are put on the stack. the first resolves almost as expected (see above). The second reveals a lot of cards (possibly the whole library, but I did not count), but does not offer to play any spell, not even a second copy of the original spell that is listed.
  still present in svn (r22131). This time I did count, and it is indeed the whole library. btw:why is the list of revealed cards not resizable?
  
• Mind Grind:
  After paying UB, forge asks to "Pay X Mana Cost for Mind Grind \n 0 Paid so fas. X Can't [sic] be 0.". In accordance to the last part, "OK" is greyed out and only "Cancel" is clickable. Paying Mana does change the dialog, but does not reactivate the "OK" button. Clicking "Cancel" cancels the spell, as it should.
  fixed in svn (r22131)
  
• Nightveil Spetre:
  Lands that are exiled by Nightveil Spetre's triggered ability are listed after clicking the Flash button, but can's be played (even as only land for the turn and with dev mode "play many lands per Turn" enabled).
  still present in svn (r22131)
  
• Chromatic Lantern:
  The option of adding one Mana of any colour that is awarded to all lands seems to confuse the usually very intelligent handling of colourless mana.
  still present in svn (r22131)
  
• Illusionists Bracers with Mercurial Chemister
  Mercurial Chemister in play, equipped with Illusionist's Bracers. Activated the Chemister's second ability. Chose a card with non-zero CMC, and the ability put on the stack with correct damage amount. Bracers trigger and a copy is put on the stack, but the copy has 0 as damage amount.
  still present in svn (r22131)
  
• (more UI problem than bug) Lazav, Dimir Mastermind:
  Is there any way to see what creature triggered his copy ability while milling? The ability works perfectly, but it's impossible to make an informed choice whether you want Lazav to copy if you can't see what card triggered him.
  still present in svn (r22131)
  I just noticed that is seems possible to look at the opponent's graveyard while the copy ability is on the stack and before it resolves. This is akward, but at least workable if one remembers not to let it resolve before peeking Still unsure whether the order of cards in the graveyard and the order of triggers on the stack matchdes when multiple creatures are milled at once, though.

EDIT: Does Forge have a bugtracker, or is nagging in every release thread the prefered method ? I'm afraid I'm getting on your nerves here... Also, please do let me know if there is any additional information needed for one of the issues.

Rechecked with current svn (r22131), compiled witth java 1.7 and my own Magic Album picture patch (which changes src/main/java/forge/ImageLoader.java and src/main/java/forge/gui/download/GuiDownloadSetPicturesLQ.java).

Well ... Infernal Plunge was an Instant.

Yes, we have a bug tracker, but most users post here, so we devs don't check it very often. Your post was excellent.

In multiplayer, if I lose, the AI keeps on playing, and I get towach them finish the game and see who wins. Great. My problem with it is that it does this no matter what your reason for losing was.

Specifically, if you concede, it still just makes you lose and continues the game. If I concede (that is, press the X in Forge's window bar) I expect for it to just leave the game right then, and not watch the AI play it out.

I block AI's Dreg Reaver with my Grave Bramble, both die. Grave Bramble should stay on the battlefield, isn't it ?

Text for Sigil Blessing when it's on the stack is "[Creature] gains +2/+2 until end of turn."

This was the second Sigil Blessing the AI cast on the same creature in the same DB phase. I didn't notice whether the first instance had a different text.

Yea I think the text is just wrong because of how the card is scripted. IIRC, the scripted card gives +2/+2 to the Targeted, and +1/+1 to each creature you control. (Which is the same as +3/+3 and +1/+1 to each other creature you control, but easier to script )

Additional info of the triggering card will now be granted in each prompt.

Fixed! Thanks Grim Rowe.

Will now show +3/+3. Thanks gos.

Hindering Light can't target Vengeful Rebirth.

Text for Rout says "destroy permanent" instead of "destroy creatures".

When I recast Karn Liberated after it got bounced, the cards previously exiled still are remembered by Karn Liberated.

Facedown morph creatures don't get revealed if they are destroyed. Checking the graveyard only tells you "Face down (card number)" but not what the card is.

Mind Grind - I can't get this card to cast, a lot of other spells with X in their casting cost work fine, but the OK button is grayed out and the Cancel button just sends it back to my hand without casting. The cancel button does work when I'm using cards with multikickers or X's, just not this one.

It's already fixed in svn. You might want to check the newest snapshot build or just wait for the next beta.

Air Walker quest deck. Computer activates Angel's Herald, a single Sphinx's Herald ends up in the graveyard and a splendid Empyrial Archangel pops up in the battlefield. Not a bad deal I say

I think it's correct. A card in your graveyard is not a permanent you control.
