    Article ChannelFireball: Declassified Information

    so the one thing I've taken away from this article when I first read it, is that the most helpful view of a cube on a computer is (for example): "what can I use in this pack with only White mana" ? <see all the white cards, including hybrids> "what can I use in this pack with only Green mana" ...

    Rob's ~450 unpowered list; with primer

    I mean, there's a resource denial sub-theme, but yeah, I felt a bit sheepish about that. I'm going to put my next revision on cube tutor so that's a visual spoiler in the future. http://cuesbey.com/#/5573b050-9a6e-4207-ae88-5aa692daf5cd This is my cube at cuesbey, and it is layed out and you...

    Rob's ~450 unpowered list; with primer

    http://www.cubetutor.com/cubeblog/161 ----- Everything is now moved to cubetutor and I do owe a new primer. Huge, from-scratch rewrite of the cube, and of note, no longer respecting singleton. I have high hopes for it. ----- Here's the tappedout description of this cube, based on a cube primer...

    I feel like the next time I re-sleeve I need to get sleeves where the card orientation is obvious when face down (e.g.asymmetrical design on the back). Because I'm both worried about splitting sleeves when shuffling, and I have some sort of tic about making sure a pack is all arranged the same...

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

    so, the latest demo code will be continually updated at: http://rdennis463.github.io/lambic Currently just the barest essentials of lay outs and getting some hardcoded interactive elements (e.g. tab bar does work, but there's just static content there)

    Getting the % of cubes and tags would be simple if something like cube tutor took on exposing an API and doing the tags.

    Nominate someone who cares about cubing. It's your civic duty. http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/feature/251b I nominated unnamed member or members of our fair Administration team (Unnamed because no one likes a kiss ass). Seriously though, I think people do pay...

    I think we know where that landed. Heh. So my friend/co-worker is one of the founders of magfest.org (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAGFest) and since he's my main cube playgroup-compatriot, he's suggested that I chair a panel about cube. Something aimed at folks who draft a lot, maybe play...

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

    Eric; tags, for all the reasons you mentioned, was the natural extension of the heuristics that I started with on http://cuesbey.com and where the cube classification part of that user story was going to grow. Tags are a great way to go about making suggestions, which is where I could see...

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

    Vince, you need one of those "Buy Me A Beer" links. That is some nice mock-upping, and there's a lot of good stuff going on there. :)

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

    This (and Vince's) perspective is the kind of thing I really do want to hear about. At this point, I'm too insider-info about cube building, and I'm definitely an "alright, what are some black 4 drop flyers that I haven't seen before?" kind of guy, so I have a hard time getting away from the...

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

    Eric, I laughed a lot, but come on gimme something to work with :p And Vince, I'm using balsamiq and exporting to png. It is a paid app, but it's one of those things where you can do a free trial. You're definitely right that I'm front-loading organization, because my hope was that a novice...

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

    So, this is a hard problem, and not because it's a technical challenge, but because it's about human interaction design and usability. Too often, you're looking at entering a bunch of card names into a text area (or text file) and bulk upload, or perhaps in a text entry box and you'll get some...
