Hello guys,

Thanks for the error reports, I've fixed The Bleeding Wall and Shaggoth.

I've also uploaded the scans and imported Ream of the Phoenix King.

Still some questions though, as I have spoilers and info and scans from many places, and I'm not sure which information is final and which is playtesting stuff. Can someone clearly confirm that all the image scans are the correct version from the final product? If so I will correct the current mistakes (I assume Pageant of Shrikes is not printed, but instead we have Warhawk Rider. Same for Ratling Gun and Ancient Stegadon. And in Realm of the Phoenix King Chakax is actually Skavenslaves.)

Thank you for your help. Listing of the last 2 editions is: http://deckbox.org/games/whi/cards?p=1&f=4324.23

Hello,

I assume you are trying to add Lance to your sets, and having problems with the dropdown. It's a pretty annoying issue, and maybe we should redo the sorting of that autocompleter dropdown.

In the mean time the solution is just type Lance in the edit box, and press escape when the dropdown appears. Then press enter or click Add (while still having just 'Lance' written in the textbox). It will correctly add it.

Wow, a lot of great suggestions!

On the issue of OpenID, we've considered implementing it from the beginning, but somehow it was always put away. In any case, we would have it in parallel to normal login / email based signup. This is because for people who don't know about how it works, it's a complicated system that puts them off from signing up.

One of the big design flaws of openid imho is that it is appealing if you understand it, but it's confusing and needs research on first look. Smart systems should make sense from the first look to most people, or they're not picked up...

Anyway, coming back to the spam topic, we shall indeed go for a bit of everything . Captcha on the front page i'm not sure about yet, we'll start with the others. A trigger system that marks user accounts for review, like signing up from ips that have been problematic in the past, sending more than x emails in y minutes / hours, report user in email, etc.

Thanks for all the suggestions, let us know if you think of anything else, they are very helpful!

P.S. LootPinata, no OpenId, and we're definitely not going to tell any of your normal friends anything, so you're safe

P.P.S xorius, the scanning for spam solution also sounds interesting but I don't know much about these systems, and I'm a bit afraid it's going to need human tweaking constantly to work. It's been noted as an idea, but i'm leaving it for last. In my naive optimism I still hope simple fast solutions will get rid of this problem quickly

Does someone own the last set and can tell me what the last card's properties are? It's called Camp Pillage or something along those lines.

I need Name, Faction, Type, Cost, Loyalty, Power, HP, Traits, and card text.

Thank you.

Hello,

Distinct means how many different cards you have. So a deck with 5 swamps will have 5 total cards, but 1 distinct, because you only have one card type - the swamp. If you add a Lightning bolt, you would have 6 cards, 2 distinct: swamp and lightning bolt.

It's true that it does not really help to know how many distinct cards there are generally. We might remove it, to get rid of the confusion.

I have got some card data now, that I will try importing today or tomorrow. Still no images though. Anyone got some scans?

P.S I never thought bandwidth would be a problem for the hoster. I'm not too sure how to test if that is the case. Does anyone have suggestions? I'll probably install some  bandwidth / CPU logger thingie. The VPS guys don't provide too good a tool.

Hello,

We do not keep track of token cards anymore. There are a couple of really old ones still in there because they were included in Gatherer at some point, but Wizards is not including them anymore. As we get all our data from the official database, from them, we don't by default import these into the database.

It is a possibility that we will get them from magiccards.info at some point, but they're not a priority.

Hi guys,

I'll try finding a decent source for the card information, at the moment I do not have it. It looks like on the official forums there's only something very sketchy about it: http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_ … idt=554366.

Fantasy Flight Games seem to be even worse at announcing and describing their product than Cryptozoic for WoW. I'm not sure why they think it's a good idea to try selling a product without telling us what it contains. I don't think geeks buy things on impulse out of curiosity without knowing what it is. At least I generally do not .

I'll post back when I have more info. We'll get it up somehow.

I'm not sure I understand what is not working for you? I see you have a bunch of cards marked as japanese in your inventory. Did you not mark them yourself as japanese?

About the dropdown, I just assumed that if you own cards in a language, you know how to spell the language's name . Is this an issue for other people as well? Owning cards in a different language that you do not speak? If so, I could change that.
