The small set thing is the biggest reason why I don't think those are legit. Although, and I made the same point on Tumblr, both BFZ and Oath aren't exactly paragons of complete design so who knows?

Balon posted:If the numbering on Mirrorpool is any indicator there's at least 11 lands in the set? Does that seem like too many to be real? Don't small sets have two of each basic land? That's 10 right there already. VV: Magiccards.info has basics for Mirrodin Besieged and New Phyrexia, as well as Fate Reforged so I kinda went off of that.

Can't they find 2-3 folks who aren't going to forget their Splinter Twin sequence or something?

From what I've heard on Tumblr, Liliana is pretty terrible to Jace, and a lot of folks who are interested in shipping (yes, they exist) are against that relationship for that reason. As to why I know this...  is all I can say.

And it can be a tough and emotional thing for couples to go through, speaking from personal experience. And I know that it's often much harder on the woman than on the man. However, I also know that it doesn't necessarily turn you into a sad, depressed sack of tears for the rest of your life. People can move past it, and heal. It's a joke based on this infamous comic:

One suggestion: If Redbubble allows, you could do the logo on the right front of the t-shirt, I think that'd look a lot like an actual company t-shirt. Also, is Gitaxian Investments & Securities going to be available as a playmat later? Or does all the blue make it doubtful? VV: Yeah that seems like an issue with thin text. I was thinking of the kinds of shirts that workers wear, with Big Al's as an obvious example. Shame abut Gitaxian too. Serperoth fucked around with this message at 12:00 on Dec 6, 2015 |

I'm always antsy about Judge Conference deadlines, and it annoys me. The deadline for the Winter one in my region is coming up in ~1 week, and I can't decide to go or not, mostly because I have a hard time parting with cards. But at the same time, the promos are crazy (Ravages of War, Wasteland, Damnation, and more), and I figure that the Ravages alone is the whole trip. I think it's just me being bad with cards and time, but it keeps happening and it's annoying, it's not like it'd be a ludicrous cost or anything (plane is 100 euro, and I think I can go by train to the location for an extra 4 euro or so)

Drafts and stuff in the evenings. I've been wanting to get back in the Judging groove when I get home and it seems like a good opportunity to get a start. "Hey I haven't been around a lot, how do I get started?" etc.

Zoness posted:I thought it was brain damage in the same vein as people wanting to use D&D for non D&D game things. Well Space the Convergence was already a Wizards thing, so it's not much of a stretch that people would expand on that. But Star Wars is more of a stretch I think. StC is still a cool idea though, especially seeing the divergence that would have happened if it were real

So some Tumblr news about {C} Yes, the mana symbol for producing colourless will change. Sol Ring reprints will have "T: Add CC to your mana pool", and not "T: Add 2 to your mana pool". I know people (incl. myself) were wondering about that, even though it's not an actual functional change.

4UU Sorcery Surge 3UU (You may cast this spell for its surge cost if you or a teammate has cast another spell this turn) Return all nonland permanents to their owners' hands. If Crush of Tentacles's surge cost was paid, put an 8/8 blue Octopus creature token onto the battlefield. I like the Surge thing. Hopefully we'll get something cool and pushed for Eternal, and not just "you get a one mana discount woo" Serperoth fucked around with this message at 13:43 on Dec 12, 2015 |

Myriad Truths posted:I don't know for certain that the new rules are that Wastes produce {C} because basic lands without a land type just automatically produce {C}. However, if they are, then Urborg does shut it off. Wastes doesn't have a type or any text at all, so just making it a Swamp means it no longer qualifies as a basic land without a land type and cannot tap for {C}. That isn't the rule. Waste is just a Basic Land, without a type, and the text "T: Add C to your mana pool." No new rule about basic lands without a type. If you have Urborg, it just has "T: Add C to your mana pool." and "T: Add B to your mana pool." (or just "T: Add C or B to your mana pool.")

Nehru the Damaja posted:The existence of a new mana symbol and rules surrounding it. It's only really a problem if they just use it as a dumb Eldrazi flavor gimmick and then abandon it. Then you're left with another piece of rules baggage like Banding, Flanking, Rampage, or old bad templating -- stuff that won't affect the day to day but will creep into someone's EDH game, have to be known for the sake of a single card if it becomes legacy playable, etc. Good, cause that's what it will be. Colourless mana (the kind that Sol Ring makes) will now be C. They won't use "has to be colourless" mana in costs in every block, just like with Hybrid and so on.

Sigma-X posted:using generic mana in a colorless spell versus using colored mana as generic. a) You don't USE generic mana. Generic mana appears only in mana costs. You can use coloured mana to pay for a generic mana cost. b) MaRo has literally said that colourless as a cost is a deciduous mechanic, like Hybrid VV: Woop yeah you're right.

Those are some stupid arguments. I mean, yeah, leaks are bad (for Wizards) cause they throw a wrench in their plan for how to reveal stuff and how they get to spin the reveals etc, and you can just say "They're also bad because they lack the context of their planned reveal so blah blah". But nope, "it's stealing guise, cmon, don't just serve ur egos". I don't even know the name of any leaker, the closest thing I know is Mythicspoiler which just aggregates them.

tgijsola posted:they'll take MTGO seriously Be realistic. If anyone from Wizards is reading this: I'd drop money on your online product during this coming holiday season, if its reputation and your apparent attention to it weren't such as they are now. SoftNum posted:Isn't their standard diatribe on this sort of thing about how magic players can't possibly understand how complicated mtgo is and how we should all just shut up and be happy with what we have? Would be a valid point if other programs weren't doing the same thing without being MUCH worse. Yes, XMage doesn't have all the cards (hell I've never even used it), but I don't think it's ever had "You can no longer get these previously-functioning cards in booster packs because something went wrong.", which is just embarrassing. Or even if Wizards was a small up-and-coming company, or if Magic had exploded overnight and they were playing catch-up.
