So I drafted a pretty cool mono-white VMA deck. As it goes to the game, my dog decides its a great time to diarrhea all over the carpet. Great use of 25 bucks.

Why is changing everything about an interface, for change's sake, the trendy thing to do? They did it with MTGO, now this. :cripes:

I guess I'm not their target audience anymore so for their sakes I hope this is a gigantic hit with the same crowd of teenage neckbeard captains that Jace and slogans like "HERE I RULE" are/were directed towards.

The Gatherer works as a mobile site and a desktop site by design. This new design for the main site clearly didn't see enough planning/testing.

Trying to filter the Article Archive for instance break it and returns zero results. Filter options show a million things that probably shouldn't be showing up. Reseting the filter completely breaks the page and returns an "Illegal action" message with a note to contact the web admin.

Kind of miffed they don't have a "Next page" at the bottom of the page when scrolling down through a card search on Gatherer. Scrolling back up is annoying.

I actually don't see what everyone is screaming about being so bad about the site redesign. I think it looks fine and intuitive and works for me. But I did find it funny that they had 3 instances of "Worth Wollpert" and 1 "Worth Wollport" in the Archives Author filter.

It's not so much the design itself that's the problem. It's the fact that this site is a buggy pile as is.

If it was working people would be a bit turned around for a while but it'd be fine.

I think that explains why the site is so horrible now. They've decided to do it hands on from Renton, rather than have Hasbro corporate do it for them out of the east coast.

Impeccable work as always, Worth.

I'd be really surprised if midnight Pacific was the update time going forward. I think it's just literally tonight, for the redesign, for some reason. It's like how dailymtg.com doesn't link to the articles directly right now. They're going to fix that.


Right?

Obviously the dog took one look at the beta and felt it was an accurate depiction. Sounds like reasonable grounds for compensation to me.

I'd do it in a swiss I guess but not in an 8-4, no. Unless my deck seemed like it had absolutely zero shot at the 3-0. With regular pack prices / not Vintage Masters I'd probably money draft though, yeah.

It's not even the redesign that I hate so much it's that, like most mobile sites, it runs like loving poo poo. Everything is laggy as hell, especially the menu button that everything useful about the site is hiding behind.

Yeah, you're right. The market is all over the place, I'm seeing sells for it at $15 and buys at $4.

I'm expecting the Power 9 to go down again as VMA continues to be drafted, but I'm not sure now. They did a good job keeping the price high, I guess.
