    You're right, though my original train of thought was a bit different. In any case, my brainstorm right now looks terrible.

    (Warning: The following was inspired by a BTP "post".) Is there any interest for designing cubes with many duplicates? E.g., a cube can only contain ...60(40?) unique cards and must be 360 total cards (with debate as to the limiting of colors included).

    I am happy that this forum doesn't have a mandatory reading comprehension level. Oops! I look forward to the 30th :)

    General going further with computer-assisted drafting

    Sounds like a fun mental exercise if anything! I have thought about a custom solution to draft my fantasy sets to play on MTGO (taking print runs to randomly create packs and then have a draft.wtf-type portal), but I don't have the skill set to implement. I am sure many of the forum users have...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Did the player that used it feel like it did what it was supposed to do? Would they play it again?

    You could limit it by # of players. WARNING: the following is not articulated in MTGlish: After the utility land draft, reveal ~. You may pick an additional X lands from the ULD where X is the number of drafters.

    General MTGO 'Vintage Cube'

    I have been drafting the MTGO Holiday/Power cube some. I am still trying to figure out the best g1 configuration for this Gw "stax" deck: Round 1 saw lots of changes in g2/3: I first took out Smokestack and the Natural Order+Terastadon. Then, I brought stack back in and cut some white...

    Fast, brutal and redundant- some cube where the nonbasic section is appx. 25 Mana Confluence and 10 Wasteland (with maybe 2-4 Ancient Tomb when you need a biting groove to break up the BADABADABADABADABADABADABADABADA). ...I solved the manafixing thread. BRB.

    Can we at least agree on all Riptiders using "artisanal" when tagging their cubes? Jason also might be on to something with sourcing; I cobbled together mine via TCGPlayer (def not locally sourced) which might offend some cubers' finer sensibilities. On a serious note, I am going to...

    @anotak: how does that work? is it choose one and find your cube designing identity? You identify with "The Scuttlemutt Cube". Your penchant for the zany and complicated ensure that your cubes alienate over half of the local FNM while having the level of involvement that precludes the interest...

    General Cubing topics you'd like to see covered in article form

    +1 for working discussions into articles. There are so many great discussions here that would be awesome in article form (and I can even be bothered to read- they just are hard to follow in their current incarnations).

    I think the different frames of reference are valuable and do not want to try to strangle them out of conversation. What I do want are some words to encapsulate paragraphs of framing that I feel they need to include when weighing in with my opinion or asking questions. This could feed into the...

    There is a lot of great discussion here, but due to the highly customizable nature of cube and tendencies to discuss topics in terms of one's own cubing experience, we sometimes are talking apples to oranges. Is there any desire (beyond my own) to develop a 10 or so word glossary of keywords to...

    General Polycubing and packages

    Stupidly was posting in jason's cube thread... Been working with Jason's primary cube and trying to apply this idea to better illustrate it: no noticeable progress yet. I like the idea of the variable slots being bundles of interactive cards, but I am concerned that since the current variable...

    Inspiration courtesy of the manafixing thread! Interested in hearing how it plays. Alternatively (if it sucks), the land could go on top of library instead of hand.

    Has anyone made a ghost quarter/wasteland variant the allows a nonbasic land's controller to search their library for a basic and put into hand after destroying it? If so, how did it play?
