What you can do is to look over your list of things you have to trade and for the highish-value ones go to the individual card page. There you will see a section that lists which users have that card in their tradelist. You can change this to show people who have it in their wishlist. Then you can click on those users' names and it will show you the intersection of your two trade and wish lists. Check if the user is has set their trade area to be compatible (many folks are local only), see if there's anything the user has that you want, and then propose a trade.

Same process works the other way around if there are specific cards you want, just view the card pages list of users with it in their tradelist and see if the intersection shows anything that user has marked on their wishlist from your set of cards. This way around I occasionally make use of the ability to show the intersection of not just my tradelist but my entire inventory in case they want something that I have, haven't marked as specifically for trade, and wouldn't mind trading.

Good luck.

I can replicate it with IE 9. If you have a different browser installed (or an earlier version of IE even) it should behave properly. It looks like the javascript code was written before IE 9 came out and contains some code branches that do special things for IE (because IE used to require such special cases). They got better with IE 9 which unfortunately means that the special stuff you used to have to do now breaks the correctly-working IE 9.

For the site programmer(s):

The error is INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR (5) in tcg.js line 8346, specifically this part:

/* Element creation */
var createElement = (function() {
...
                var element = document.createElement(tagParts.join(""));  <-- line 8346

IE9 changed the way createElement works so it can no longer take a full html tag with all the params. You have to just give it the base element and then call setAttribute for each attribute. Presumably the code to handle non-IE browsers (lines 8358-8366) should work with IE 9 (or be similar to what will work).

I'm not sure if this was part of Prototype 1.6.1 or is custom code. If it is the former it seems there is a newer version 1.7 of Prototype.

Your link to your entire M:tG inventory is http://deckbox.org/sets/74718 . If you're using that as a list of what's for trade (as opposed to what you own) then that's enough. If you're still entering stuff and eventually plan to make use of this site's tradelist/wishlist functionality (right now they're both empty for you) you'll eventually want to link to just your tradelist at http://deckbox.org/sets/74719 and wishlist at http://deckbox.org/sets/74720 . Filling those out helps facilitate trades on the site itself since it will calculate the intersection of two users' trades/wants.

I've infrequently noticed some exceptionally slow response times. It wasn't following a discernible pattern. I was assuming perhaps the machine hosting the site ran daily maintenance potentially causing slowdowns during odd hours.

I meant any multicolor card regardless of color. I sort my cards by each of the five colors, colorless, multicolor, and land. I have frequently wanted to see all the cards that are exactly X and Y and no other colors (or at least X and Y), as the existing color filter allows. However other times I will just want to see all gold/hybrid cards. Sorting by color was not something I thought to do and actually works pretty well for my purposes. I agree it's not pretty :-) but it basically does what I need it to do.

magiccards.info is also a good resource for seeing all the different versions of a card.

From your profile page, the topmost section on the left should be My Controls with subsections Edit Profile, Friends, Trades. Your link to edit your profile should be http://deckbox.org/users/duster/edit

There are of course favorite utility cards which I'm perpetually buying more of since they find their way into so many of my decks, cards like Darksteel Ingot or Temporal Isolation.

It's probably more interesting to mention cards that jumped out at me and screamed "make a deck with me". Probably my oldest deck that still exists in some form has Varchild's War-Riders. It started as a trample/rampage deck before I eventually condeded that all the trample/rampage cards aren't very good. Then it morphed into a way to take advantage of their cumulative upkeep and defeat the other player through giving them tokens.

The wackiness and randomness of Time Spiral really brought my group of friends back into the game in a big way and one of the cards that spoke to me was Stuffy Doll. It found its way into a "I don't care if you damage my creatures" deck.

I had always had an Enchantress deck of some sort but Yavimaya Enchantress is the one that really made it pop when I added four of them. Ancestral Mask on her along with all the other enchantments that will be out there just start to get a little ridiculous.

There are other cards that I have set aside that are still waiting on that a-ha moment to figure out how to utilize them well: Norin the Wary, Krark's Thumb, Helix Pinnacle, and many others.

I don't think there is a one-click solution, but you can quickly go down the leftmost (green) column representing the inventory count and click each field to type in the number of that particular card you have.

I'm not entirely sure, but prices seem to come from tcgplayer.com. I don't know how the different versions are factored in, but you'll see it go in the other direction too. I have some cards from Anthologies that show up as worth way more than they should be because their other printing is from Legends, etc.

From your inventory, you can click the red arrow to the left of the card name to set the edition. However, this doesn't change any of the price data. That is stored per card name.

I definitely have this same problem.

Users can find a list of all decks that have that card but a list of all *my* decks with that card would be equally useful (if not more).

I think someone mentioned a quirk that you couldn't set the flags (promo, foil, etc.) without also at least setting the edition. Perhaps that might apply to you.
