    Other Games

    these three have particularly taken up a lot of our time at work over the years, especially Dominion and 7 Wonders: 7 Wonders has continually over-performed my expectations for it's replay-ability, and if I had to guess, I've been involved in 250-300 games for 4-7 people. the expansions DON'T...

    got a chance to catch up and it seems like he has it under control. He's using a very different set of technologies than I'm used to, so it's hard to see where there's a _lot_ of room for collaboration, BUT after seeing CT cube-building piece, AND mulling over Jason's request for a better way to...

    Article Channel Cube Cast: Black

    I'd like it if whatever influence you / anyone have accrued with CFB could be directed at getting channel cube cast to fire at least bi-weekly. It's a good show.

    I could have sworn that you took 5: http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Split_cards (there's a note there about Dark Confidant, which I have to assume works the same). Enjoyed the director's cut :)

    I saw cubetutor today and seems pretty sweet. On my to-do list after moving next week is to reach out to cubetutor and see if there's anything worth collaborating on. Cuesbey won't ever be more than a part-time thing for me, but I think he's doing it full time so he's in a better spot to help...

    Cube Tool cuesbey.com - purpose-built site for cube comparison

    three things: - I think if you just straight copy and paste the text file (as you've presented it) into cuesbey cube diff, it *should* ignore the lines that aren't cards and show you the curves (if you want to quickly compare or look at it,) - I think that the desired cube-editing side of things...

    Cube Tool cuesbey.com - purpose-built site for cube comparison

    Well, part of where I want to grow this project is to allowing people to let their list live in cuesbey and then do stuff with it (compare them, draft them, analyze them), so it's definitely in my wheelhouse. What's very important though, is understanding the kinds of things that you want to...

    RipLab Marketing

    those are kind of sad stories :( (people hating/feuding with other people in their local area), I'm sure this happens in DC to but I've fortunately not heard much about it if so. I saw that the riptide account tweeted the cuesbey thread :), that was nice and I appreciate it.

    General latest MTGO changes

    I guess I'm a little confused then, because all I really remember from the last round of changes was that shelldeck isle was taken out. I didn't see it mentioned in the changes so I guess I missed a version somewhere in there :-( edit: blah, I glossed over it, oh well

    alright, took me a lot longer than I wanted, and I'd just like to say, I'm thankful that magic, for how complicated it is, has pretty consistent templating

    these are all victims of an extremely overzealous heuristic: "caring_about_controlling_colored_permanents_affects_color" THANKS Bloodhall Ooze :( uncheck that for now (since in practice, cards that use this are pretty rare) and I'll get a fix in reopened...

    Says it for me I think. I also agree with tone being important, insofar as it's pretty much always worth being deliberate about words you commit to any sort of permanent record with your name attached.

    I got out my way to support Wildfire / Upheaval and to that end I do run a bit more colourless ramp/fixing than I would do otherwise: http://cuesbey.com/#/1dedd8ff-78f2-4efc-9a89-8471c864b9fd Mox Diamond Chrome Mox Everflowing Chalice Coldsteel Heart Grim Monolith Izzet Signet Mind Stone...

    General Momir Vig Cube

    I believe Norbert88 from twitter has a Momir Basic cube and he might have a list up that provides an interesting starting point. As to whether or not an IRL match should have the cards count as tokens or not, I always thought part of the charm of the online version was the way different effects...

    General Opportunities and Ideas

    I appreciated most of what's going on here, but I'd like to specifically mention that I like the idea of distributed testing of cards/packages. As someone who gets around 1 8-man every 6 weeks, it's difficult to get the necessary reps to make intelligent decisions about where to grow my cube...

    General Simulating 8-man decks with 2 players

    I'm in for trying whatever suggestions come out of this thread. As a designer I want to be thinking about what I support in terms of an 8 man draft, but fully 50% of my reps are 1v1, so getting 8 man drafts level of decks in a 2 man is very important for testing and make decisions.

    alright, fixing Eric's suggestion and it's all pushed/updated: caring_about_controlling_colored_permanents_affects_color <- bloodhall ooze and some other corner cases caring_about_spell_colors_affects_color <- shrine of burning rage, sapphire medallion, nightscape familiar, quirion dryad

    General Cube content worth consuming

    I intentionally didn't mention the third power, but I it's really as far to the 'free-form' (read: filled with tangents) end that you could really go, and it's not something I can really stay with. I like that they're making a contribution, and I personally am never going to criticize folks who...
