Good point. 40 card decks should be marked as drafted.

And Tiny leaders at 50! (Could also add the other conditions: Legacy, Singleton, CMC <=3 only, at least one Legendary creature - would be cool to be able to denote a card as the Commander to enforce the commander colours rule)

Deck Building is probably the best place for this.

Tasigur, the Golden Fang can replace Tarmogoyf to some degree. Some downsides of this are that you won't likely be able to play Tasigur as early and you can only run two or three. The upside is that it's harder to remove and his ability could be relevant.

Did you type "Emblem: ..."?

e.g. "Emblem: Sarkhan, the Dragonspeaker"

Added more!

Yes, makes sense. And, I've found the "+" button to be slow for reasons I mentioned in a different thread. It disappears after you click it, and you have to move the mouse to reactivate it. Also, you have to pause for a beat for the data to update.

I have now deployed a fix for this, should be no more flickering, you can quickly press the "+" button multiple times in a row.

Should be better, right?

This is excellent, thanks!

See my FRF cards here!

The functionality to add a specific card from your inventory to a deck is achieved by the Tagging system that will come for Premium only.

It sends an email to the address associated with their account. It includes your message and some extra text saying that it's from Deckbox. You can also try messaging the trader in the chat of the relevant trade.

I think it's an interesting idea. Once the tagging system is implemented - if it were also implemented for the card database - it would be possible to crowdsource these sorts of tags. I don't see this being very high priority though.

Far too slow for competitive unless you turn it into a control deck. See the popular control decks in Modern for ideas  including permission (counterspells). Also take a look at Gifts decks.

Competitive or kitchen table?
61 cards?:P
I'd go 3x Dig and 4x Path.
You have some tough casting costs so fetches would help a lot.
This is very "all-in" on using and reusing Ashen Rider's triggered ability. Maybe add an alt-win con or two.
You will need to add permission or this will fold to most combo decks.

Just my 2 cents cool

+1 for keeping the + button up if the pointer stays on it

Direct numerical entry would be nice! If the focus would move to the same column of the next card when I hit enter/tab that would be fast.

I would suggest adding a separate location for adding tokens to a deck, similarly to how sideboards (and scratchpads) are incorporated

This is part of the functionality of the Scratchpad ("Another deck section besides your sideboard. Use it to keep in mind cards related to your deck, possible replacements and additions.")

i love that you are doing this. however i would like to make a small suggestion as you implement this. This has been suggested in some of the forums and i think it is a great idea. Would you make the feedback private until both parties have submitted it. I currrently have a trade where i am not willing to submit feedback for fear of the user giving me bad feedback in retaliation. this user sent me the wrong card twice and then shrugged it off saying "the prices will stabilize in a few months". this is not acceptible to me but i didnt want to raise a big fuss about it except by leaving negative feedback.

Keep up the good work!

I think this is a good idea.  When you give neutral feedback first the person you are trading with may sometimes not give positive in retaliation.

Further to this, I suggest that a default positive score be automatically entered after some time (maybe one month after trade completion - as long as there is no outstanding BTR) to break standoffs.

This will also allow people to build their user score when their trade partners are negligent in leaving feedback. This is especially important since there are no feedback reminders (see https://deckbox.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=23811).

Attempting to sign up for the Premium, for some reason it isn't allowing me to select my address. It's listed, I select it but it's still showing blank and won't accept the Purchase.

I'm also seeing this and it's blocking me (and everyone else?) purchasing premium...

Right now "Public and private notes for each card" is per unique card in a deck, as opposed to per card in my inventory, which is what I was hoping for. Will this change when the tagging system is implemented? Also, any idea when Premium users will see the tagging system? I know you may not be able to provide a date, but is it close? i.e. Deckbox 4.1 or Deckbox 5.0?

When this came up before I got the impression that it would not be fixed until the long-awaited tagging system is implemented. Since it looks like tagging will be a premium feature this may never be fixed for free users.

As a frequent user and supporter, I have spent time providing feedback on the site and I have enjoyed quick responses and even quick bug fixes. But recently I feel that my feedback has not received any attention - so I stopped giving feedback. That being said, here's some now: wink

As a seller, I feel that selling desperately needs improvements... and none have been made in months!

  • What is the state of the Deckbox pricing algorithm?

  • I would likely pay for Premium if it allowed me to set dynamic prices.

  • I can't set static prices based on a filter. [https://deckbox.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=22334]

  • I can't enforce a minimum order size (# cards or $). [https://deckbox.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=22333]

  • I can't automatically apply a discount. [https://deckbox.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=22333]

  • I can't set it to require my approval before an order goes through.

  • I can't enforce a rule for buyers to choose certain shipping options, i.e. forcing them to pay for tracking under certain conditions.

  • I can't give feedback on buyers so we can weed out the bad ones as a community.

  • It's hard to fill large orders since I can't sort the card list (my cards are not sorted as one giant alphabetical list (same goes for filling trades).

  • It's really difficult to determine if the buyer has left feedback or not.

  • I can't see the tracking # I gave the buyer.

  • Shipping options gets difficult to maintain the more you have.

  • Since you haven't improved the Marketplace or asked your community what you can do to fix it, it seems like it's dead/dying.

On building the Deckbox brand...

  • Another idea for making money: sell Deckbox-branded merchandise, e.g. t-shirts, sleeves, playmats, DECKBOXES, scorepads, pens. Maybe only the strongest supporters will buy it, but it will also help get the Deckbox name out there to players at LGSs and kitchen tables.

  • Give some sort of bonuses for building up user scores. People love "leveling-up"! This could mean free Premium, exclusive subforums, etc.

  • Communicate better. You don't have the time, so get volunteers to do this for you. Send out the missing newsletter and have a presence on Facebook and the like - especially Reddit!

+1, can reproduce

I think the difference here is whether it's searching with the edition set or not. The former method searches without edition (even though it appears to have the edition set... this should be fixed) and the latter searches with the edition set so only finds traders that have set the edition for that card on their list. This makes sense as you may only want to search on that specific edition. It would be nice if it ignores the edition if there's only one edition of that specific card.

Personally I always search WITHOUT the edition set.

It's a corner case, but needs fixing nevertheless:

Enter "1" => $1.00
Enter "1.1" => $1.10
Enter "1." => $0.01
Enter "11." => $0.11
Enter "111." => $1.11

+1 - still hoping for this
