Apples are probably too rare, relative to the number of cards that will be drawn; and information requests are probably too expensive. The game seems to be about balancing access to information with raw card supply, and crafting accordingly, but the cheapest way to request information costs 3 apples (thus, effectively, 6 cards). It seems unlikely that that trade will be worthwhile. I also can't see a strong reason not to wait until the last moment to do crafting (once you know most of the scoring rules because they've become public). The only reason to craft would be to gain hints about how refined currencies affect the scoring, but that information will mostly become public in time anyway. -- ais523
