    catching the cast at work today via twitch; the volume imbalance is no worse than a normal podcast in my opinion. edit: enjoyed your walk down Jason meeting Eric. The first two articles really spoke to me and bothering you on twitter led me to the google group edit2: eh, I think the MTGO cube...

    General What did you buy for your cube today?

    I don't think I have the guts to double up on goblin guide as my players would either stone (rain) me or it would entice others to jump in to "cube fun police" (r/w/boros) role I often trip into

    I'm down to just sword of fire and ice and sword of war and peace after swapping most of the broken equipment with bonesplitters after having a fun MMA experience. UWR seemed to have the highest concentration of tools for fighting swords and after that I basically have no color protection other...

    Card/Deck MCD -- Anthems

    I run glorious anthem but I don't know if I've ever seen it played, much less be good. Honor of the Pure has the benefit of slotting in to a "2 drop that adds 6-8 damage over the course of the game" role (e.g. ankh of mishra for white) which isn't nothing I don't necessarily agree that Pianna...

    General What did you buy for your cube today?

    disagree STRONGLY. Although I was looking at Kamahl recently Somewhat on the original topic (pleasantly surprised at the number of responses), at what threshold will you personally buy a speculative card as part of a larger order vs proxying? Experience has told me my number is 2 dollars for...

    I bought the entire box set for the explicit purpose of loaning out to people, so I certainly think it's a great show. I'm generally pro watching things with loved ones that you wouldn't have watched otherwise anyway

    a bit late, but I never saw weeds and all I can say is that Orange has exceeded our relatively low threshold of "will block out an hour to watch this on netflix once a night after the kid is asleep" That's not nothing, but it's not a show I'd watch on a network schedule

    M14 is on gatherer; get it updated to CT?

    so, super necromancy and I'm sure this isn't 100% new information, but taking a look at magiccards.info, they have everything laid out in a tree like this: ~/scans/<language_abbreviation>/<set_abbreviation>/<collector_number> e.g. http://magiccards.info/scans/en/gtc/215.jpg is Boros Reckoner...

    Tinker 2.0 Release

    If I did it right, that's the goal :) I just did a take on bulk import/export, and I think the general approach is solid, although I need to spend to some time (greatly) improving performance http://rdennis463.github.io/lambic/ inserting a 720 card list in the far-left text area and hit "Make...

    General What did you buy for your cube today?

    I dunno, I don't spend a looot of cash on cards, but when I do, I feel happy. Maybe it makes you happy too. Want to talk about it? This is a big order from CFB that's mostly replacing proxies with real cards, with a few cards in here that are benched for being too good, so if things change (I...

    The actor who portrayed Nico looks so different, and is SUCH A DBAG on Orange is the New Black it MAKES ME ANGRY!

    Card/Deck [M14] Elvish Mystic

    I guess this implies that they had fyndhorn elves tagged for FTV since at least the first MTGO cube

    Card/Deck Green Aggro

    I am of the opinion that a cube is better the more evenly distributed the drafted decks/colors. I think that others think the same, and that some of those people feel the best way to achieve this is to have the color tabs of their spreadsheet have the same numbers.

    Cube Tool How do you want to enter a cube list into a computer?

    Now featuring mouseover tooltips for card images. Certain types of cards (flip / split / certain flashback cards*) don't quite work due to gatherer's irregular data. * did you know that the timeshifted call of the herd is named XXCall of the Herd...

    Cube Tool How do you want to enter a cube list into a computer?

    http://rdennis463.github.io/lambic/app/index.html has what I'd consider a superset of ways to look at a pool, but it proves out the general solution to "I want to see my cube a bunch of different ways" in practice, what panes/tabs you'd see would need to be user configurable

    Cube Tool How do you want to enter a cube list into a computer?

    the semicolon got added as part of the URL, whoops. yeah, the ease of entering a deck and cube pool are both things that are important user stories here

    Cube Tool How do you want to enter a cube list into a computer?

    Thanks :), I'm now more confident that there's a correlation between effort and "betterness" and I'm very happy about that. definitely, this is the kind thing that I had put in http://cuesbey.com (suspend cost acting as mana cost) and each of those checkboxes are examples of heuristics that...
