* Better sorting of cards in the trade autocompleter. Cards starting with the keyword typed come first now (e.g. Lightning Bolt is before Ball Lightning when you type Lightning)

This might be completely unrelated but I noticed there is a page for http://deckbox.org/mtg/Pain as well as http://deckbox.org/mtg/Pain%20//%20Suffering. Looks like the former should be removed. Haven't noticed any others. Thank you sebi!

Rough // Tumble may need to be looked at. It should have a Commander 2013 edition, correct?

Before I pull the trigger on buying the rest of the cards needed to finish an Innistrad Cube, I thought I'd ask the group to look for any possible trades here. I didn't bother adding big cards I'll no doubt need to buy (Liliana of the Veil, Geist of Saint Traft, etc.) - Just cheap cards I'd like to trade cheap cards for.

Need one of each of the following:

1 Mindshrieker
1 Stony Silence
1 Kruin Outlaw
1 Grimoire of the Dead
1 Sever the Bloodline
1 Tree of Redemption
1 Curse of Death's Hold
1 Grimgrin, Corpse-Born
1 Gutter Grime
1 Kessig Cagebreakers
1 Back from the Brink
1 Reaper from the Abyss
1 Balefire Dragon
1 Army of the Damned

I'm hoping to trade for the following (In priority order):

Casual
3x Copperhoof Vorrac
4x Extract
4x Psychogenic Probe
4x Lantern of Insight
Thundersong Trumpeter
Distortion Strike
Super Casual
Sentinels of Glen Elendra
Barbtooth Wurm
Dakmor Bat
Woodlurker Mimic
Anurid Barkripper
Elder Pine of Jukai
Gravebane Zombie



Here are some ~$1.00 haves on the tradelist I'd like to get rid of

Angelic Overseer
Jace's Phantasm
Phyrexian Negator
Nephalia Drownyard
Thespian's Stage
Golgari Grave-Troll
Increasing Savagery
Exotic Orchard
Slumbering Dragon
Augur of Bolas
Vampire Nighthawk

Or take a look at my inventory if these don't work.

Today I wrote a Planechase app for your computer (Maybe your phones too; I think you can put the files on your phone and then view them with your browser?). I will not be hosting it because I don't want to get in trouble. I think it's bad for me to say that I wrote this too so for all instances of the word "I" in this post, I mean "someone else." Except when I wrote the previous sentence. And when I wrote that one. And that one.

The difference between Planerift and mine is that it includes next/previous buttons so that you can cycle through the deck and reference cards in the future or past as needed. It also includes all the Planechase cards; The planes, the schemes, and it doesn't limit you to the original printing or 2012. I can add filters in the future as needed. The other problem with mine is that it requires you to have all the images saved on your computer. Actually; it doesn't have to. If you have an internet connection, I can make it pull the image files from Deckbox.org or Gatherer. I'm going to do that tonight...

If you want a copy, send me a message and I'll send you a zip file with everything you need later this week.

Upon loading, the images are shuffled and the game begins. If you hit a scheme first, I think you just need to hit the next button and the scheme will be added to the bottom of the deck. Refreshing the page restarts the game as does navigating away so be careful about clicking away.

Please leave your feedback here.

OK, I wrapped up the first attempt of this program and added all the information in the top of the page. This is some of the ugliest code I have ever written but it seems to work so ... meh.

Here are some thoughts and notes:

  • The draft selection only executes once and as soon as you choose the appropriate file. Refresh the page to redo.

  • It is possible to get duplicate cards if you have duplicates of varying edition, condition, etc. (e.g. an M13 Oblivion Ring and an M12 Oblivion Ring could be chosen but two M13 Oblivion Ring is not possible)

  • The generated page is volatile! If you close the page, use the back button, or navigate away from what was generated in any fashion, the information will be lost forever. Save a copy of the page if you like what was generated.

  • Special rarity cards are not included (e.g. Timeshifted)

  • Cards from Planechase and Vanguard could be included. I don't have them in my inventory so I didn't even think about it.

  • Mythics are chosen 12.5% of the time.

  • There is no error handling. If you use incorrect input, the page just becomes unresponsive. You can use Chrome's debugger (right-click Inspect) to see what's up or just tell me about it here.

  • Each card links to Deckbox and opens in a new tab/window.

  • The statistics that are generated at the top of the page tell you how many unique copies of cards are in your collection.

Also have Bonfire; Jace, Memory Adept; Hinterland Harbor; Primordial Hydra; Thragtusk that I would like to trade for Shocks.

Thank you for looking!

When is a good time for everyone? Thurs/Fri night?

If you're willing to help, I need a CSV file of your inventory.

  • Click inventory, hover over View and Hit Export

http://i.imgur.com/jaUBCQt.png

  • Make sure you select Rarity and Image URL options

http://i.imgur.com/AiGo1WO.png

  • Email the file to me gwc6518[AT]rit[DOT]edu, and I will send back an HTML file with a visual spoiler with links to the cards to be provided.

I would provide the program instead but it can only be run from a command prompt and needs Java to be added to your Environment Variables and etc. etc. too complicated...

I can't wait to see what we get from Paul and skyth's pools. At 103,095 cards and 33,151 cards in inventory, there are sure to be some wacky interactions.

If you don't want to pull from inventory, you can do the same steps above with your tradelist.

I would like to give this a try this week. The amount of work is a bit steep though. I would want my cards sleeved and that's 45 cards per person to pull out of storage, sleeve, and then return to storage post game. Would it be too much to ask each player bring 45 random cards for their packs as chosen by this program? I can provide different colored sleeves for each person so that your cards will be appropriately returned at the conclusion of the draft. If the program chooses a card you do not want to bring (beta Timewalk), I can also provide a proxy or you can give the selection a re-spin.

During the draft, you would end up with a rainbow of different colored sleeves so, maybe that gives you an unfair advantage (marked cards) but so does everyone else. Please let me know your thoughts. If no one is willing to make some "packs" I can make them all (but I won't like it!)

Bumping with hopes of finding 7 cards today. Thank you for looking!

Thank you Doctor N. Looking for 3 Omniscience.

Sounds like MTGO is not the product for fairportmagic! smile

skyth, How long does it take to play out a sealed event or a draft on MTGO? It sounds/looks like a lot of fun.

We can ante cards or I could increase the price a little bit and include some packs. I'd prefer the former since prize packs limits the amount of drafts I can host. I would also be willing to offer something ridiculous and unrelated as a prize such as a fake trophy or perhaps a growler.

Based on the feedback I gathered today, we're going for a Ravnica block draft this Thursday. I'll host sealed next week.

fairportmagic wrote:

sealed would be cool, how much would sealed be?

$15.50

I want to host some limited this week/weekend. I have a MMA updated pauper cube and a lot of boxes. I'd like to do something Ravnica block with those boxes. Either sealed (2 of each RTR, GTC, DGM) or a draft (1 each). Another option being an inventory draft thing that I mentioned in the other thread. Let me know what you want to do and when you want to get together.
