    One thing I really miss here is having a box separating the deck content from the rest of the post. Having some soft tint like the code boxes would be super neat! Oozes 1 Scavenging Ooze 2 Mitotic Slime 3 Acidic Slime 4 Mirror Entity #in your face, consumerist society! 5 Predator Ooze (is...

    Forum Aesthetics and Usability

    Personally, I was fonder of the "Other Green" option that maintained the original color for the banner, but mostly because it seems that everywhere on the internet websites are turning into a shade of blue. Nothing against the current one though (There is no mountain dew here so I can't even...

    Oh no, you just have to go into each one and copy it somewhere else. I've just put up the link to the album so I wouldn't have to paste each image directly and clog up the post, so the ones you see when you go through my link are actually just thumbnails. Here is an exemple of one of the...

    Since you guys loved the blue one so much, there you go! Also made a couple ones with a light gradient background for the main page so there are visible bounds to the header image. I included the design-ey helvetica placeholder logo if you guys feel like using it for anything until there is...

    Forum Aesthetics and Usability

    A couple more suggestions: • A table with milestones and priorities for planned site/forum features so we know what is baking. No need to estabilish delivery dates. Would probably be better if we had a site-specific section to have this, but the original post in this thread might be a good...

    Card/Deck [MCD] Cards that create Subgames!

    Yeah, I've been sitting on some notes about an article on protection cards and ideas for handling them in a positive manner inside a cube environment but haven't solidified it yet. I'll see if I get to work on it as soon as I get some paperwork solved this week. Back to other minigame cards...

    Card/Deck [MCD] Cards that create Subgames!

    Sarcomancy is an interesting subgame card when it is on the other side of the board. Also, I believe it is one of the coolest drawbacks ever made, as it doesn't punish you for doing something, it merely helps your opponent if he plays around it while having an interesting effect by itself...

    Article [Top 8] Missed Design Opportunities: Multicolor Edition

    Hmm...but isn't the coolest thing about building Cubes that we can tailor the environment the way we want? What exactly do we gain by dismissing cards "because commander"? Deckbuilding and playtesting for EDH in pretty much a focus exercise that helps you learn about new cards, mechanics and...

    General Fun Budget Cube Cards

    Grafted Wargear ~ 1 dolar Absurd money cost to effectiveness ratio. Trading Post ~ 50 cents Does a million things, including Goats. Renegade Krasis ~ 60 cents If you have a +1/+1 counters theme going, this guy is pretty fun to play with. There is also a huge amount of standard-legal fringe...

    Article [Top 8] Missed Design Opportunities: Multicolor Edition

    I disagree with all but Rakdos Augermage and Vanish into Memory here (and partially with Cloven Casting because 5 or 6 would be a good casting cost). I disagree mostly because I play these cards in other formats than on their cube evaluations and in their respective formats they are very well...

    The Grave Cube (360 cards, thematic cube)

    Hmm...those are all great suggestions. I have some of those up already and I'll see what I can get into my list. Just wished more grave-oriented red cards were costed 2 instead of 3. I don't really want more than two copies of Burning Vengeance right now. It is a good build-around card and any...

    Right now, this is pretty much one of the best forum softwares I have ever used. Notifications are amazing as they are and using them in junction with watch/unwatch threads function is very satisfying. Text editor is also wonderful and the integration with the Quote/Reply button makes multiquote...

    Site News [Forum] Card tooltips

    Major thread necromancy here to ask for a couple features: 1. Is it possible to bind functionality from the card tag button to CTRL+SPACE or similar keyboard shortcut? 2. Would it be possible to make the card tag reference a string passed as a parameter to the tag? Example: I dislike thefree...

    The Grave Cube (360 cards, thematic cube)

    All suggestions are pretty neat. I'm particularly interested in Primal Command and Tortured Existence (feels like Survival of the Fittest in this cube :D). Not sure what to take out, though. Seems like I forgot that I had Cremate in already. Either way, I've switched it to Vile Rebirth as it...

    The Grave Cube (360 cards, thematic cube)

    Hmm, I'm not very sure I want Nether Traitor in. He's much harder to cast and abuse than Reassembling Skeleton. Plus he can't block profitably, and from what I've seen in my CubeTutor drafts so far, the Grave Cube might be much faster than expected, so having a card that plays better in control...
