Hi all,

Just wondering, is there a way to batch select and mark all cards that you have 0 of in your inventory?

Id like to do that so my wishlist has cards I don't have and might not even know exist instead of having to manually by name add them.

Anyone?

As far as I know, that's not a feature of decklist, but if you want to add 1 of anything you don't have (tradelist) and aren't already looking for, (wishlist) you can do so outside of deckbox:

1. Export your tradelist and wishlist, combine them, then set the amount of each card to '2' using a replacement effect. Word and excel can each do this.
2. Get a list of every magic card (I recommend a program called gatherer extractor) and set the amount of each card to '1'.
3. Combine the lists from part 1 and 2 (I often use TCGPlayer's mass import as a quick hack for this) then filter by any cards that have an amount of '1' listed.
4. Import the list of cards from part 3 to your deckbox wishlist.

Fair warning - the list will be THOUSANDS of cards long.

Yes I know that would work that way, but if there was a way to add this feature to deckbox (cough) you could do it by name only, not name and edition etc.

Maybe a feature will show up soon ;)

What do you mean by name only, rather than name and edition? If I'm understanding correctly, you can do either of those with the method I suggested, or even add other criteria such as gatherer rating (e.g. must be > 3) or price. (e.g. must be < $5 TCGPlayer minimum)

Given that this sort of thing wouldn't be used frequently, and there's a suitably fast alternative, I doubt it would become a feature of decklist anytime soon.

if I understand your method, it would have an entry for alpha swamp, beta swamp, unlimited swamp... etc etc... doing it that way would have 3 cards and not just 'swamp' which I would want since I don't have that card name.

(example)

did I misread?

I did skim over the details, but if you just want 1 entry per unique card name, (only 1 swamp, regardless of edition) you'd just have to remove the extraneous information (edition) and then combine the lists. To do this, I would take a text list like this and paste it into http://store.tcgplayer.com/list/selectproductmagic.aspx

1 Swamp
1 Swamp
2 Swamp
6 Swamp
1 Forest
1 incorrect name

When you press 'Add to Cart', every identical entry is combined, and the list is sorted alphabetically. You'll get this result

1 Forest
1 incorrect name
10 Swamp

Then, set every amount in the list to '2' and continue with steps 2, 3, and 4. The 'incorrect name' entry is there so that the program doesn't actually add everything to your cart and remove the list. There may be ways to do this in a word processing program, but I've just used this hack since it's so quick.


EDIT: Excel has a button called 'Remove Duplicates' under Data that does this too.
