    The Music Thread

    I've seen the name before, and I've probably listened to some of their works. I did enjoy Mr. Beast. It's sometimes hard to keep track of the different artists though, a lot of them blend together in my head and it becomes difficult to know what I have and haven't heard before, they're not as...

    General Jumpstart, Historic Horizons spoiler thread

    I don't really expect any of the cards to come out of this to be so mind-blowing amazing that I'd be compelled to find a way to put them into my cube, but if you really feel the need: Seek: Magic obviously has no way to tutor for cards randomly without looking at and having to subsequently...

    The Music Thread

    I'm not really convinced people tend to listen to what gets posted in these threads, but regardless, here are some of the albums that effectively define my music taste. If you want to listen to people sing, you've come to the wrong place. First off is the second album by CLANN, Seelie, which...

    General Dear Hearthstone Players

    I missed a cardback before Un'Goro released and immediately lost all motivation to play afterwards. How identical does it need to be? Arcane Intellect is divination, Holy Smite is shock at sorcery speed, Mind Blast is technically lava axe, for 20% of the cost. Vanish is evacuation, Mind Control...

    Sets (AFR) Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Previews- Dripping with Flavor, and Excess Words!

    I was never going to be excited for the D&D set, but my overall feelings are still those of disappointment. The cards don't represent the world of D&D, it represents a game of D&D. Instead of portraying the fiction, the game pieces end up portraying other game pieces; you view Forgotten Realms...

    Sets (AFR) Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Previews- Dripping with Flavor, and Excess Words!

    D&D isn't a competitive game, it's a social experience. In roleplaying games, you use dice to resolve uncertainty because it helps drive the story in unexpected directions and create memorable experiences. The context is different. It does the same thing in Magic: the Gathering, but when you're...

    I guess I'll do a comprehensive writeup of some of my thoughts in making the cube in case anyone was interested, as the primer was quite short. Do note that I haven't really playtested the cube to any real extent, so there's a lot of uncertainty for me in how games actually end up in practice...

    360/100 Contest Voting

    I'm glad the context clues are doing some work. I guess you have to own the cube to look at the basic land box (or draft a deck) (or look at one of the decks someone else has drafted). In the context of it being a contest it's plausible that I should have written a very comprehensive primer, but...

    General Actual contest: Design a 360 card cube with 100 unique cards

    Too perplex to simply be called a cube, I bring to you a puzzleknot, a place to ponder upon the questions truly not worth asking yourself. A world of wonder, where turtles fix your mana, and hybrid costs present herculean tasks. I invite you to get lost, in The Æther Hub. (The cube puzzleknot is...
