who keeps pming you?

I cant make it work.

If you type someones name it sort of alerts the programme

Siberius · « **Reply #501 on:** July 19, 2012, 10:39:40 PM »

I think you do it like this

Rufus: hello

As an example but you have to get the name exactly right. And I think the : is vital. We should experimemt when 3 of us are in there to see who can see what.

If you include someone's name in a sentence that usually pops up in their little box at the bottom too, but not just to them.

I got it installed, built my first deck, and it's nice! Takes a bit to wrap your head around the fact that you have to do everything yourself (no counting mana by the program or anything like that), and then it's awesome.

Ah, that's what I keep getting!

Aldaris · « **Reply #504 on:** July 19, 2012, 10:49:37 PM »

and I didn't include her into my deck because really, that's fucking ridiculous.

Finlay · « **Reply #505 on:** July 19, 2012, 10:57:21 PM »

Ah, siberius has used that against me before.

right. I guess it would be quite a complex programme to have all the rules and stuff in. It's still awesome though

He has? Oh. Then I'll include it of course.

Finlay · « **Reply #507 on:** July 19, 2012, 11:09:33 PM »

Are you done for the night? You're still on the programme!

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #508 on:** July 19, 2012, 11:13:48 PM »

Tired rufus is grumpy. Sorry Finlay!

Finlay · « **Reply #509 on:** July 19, 2012, 11:32:27 PM »

rules question!

Elesh norn is in play (-2/-2 to opposition)

fiend hunter is cast, exiles her.

thankfully fiend hunter is 1/3 so he doesnt die from the ability, but if the fiend hunter was 1/2, would he come on, get -2/-2'd before he could exile her? or come on, exilve her and not get -2/-2'd?

Don't be sorry, but I dont see why you'd come on if you werent going to enjoy it that night! It will just make you crosser and then think you hate magic.
Which is impossible because it's amazing.

Now I feel bad.

Is my deck too nasty?

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #511 on:** July 19, 2012, 11:36:18 PM »

No I'm just in a bad mood. Shouldn't have played magic at all!

My fault.

Aldaris · « **Reply #512 on:** July 19, 2012, 11:37:34 PM »

Just look at it this way: you just gave me 10 dollars. You are an altruist! You should feel good about yourself.

Finlay · « **Reply #513 on:** July 19, 2012, 11:39:30 PM »

now you have more than enough money for sealed decks aldaris.

You can start to learn the new sets!

Aldaris · « **Reply #514 on:** July 19, 2012, 11:42:31 PM »

Nice! I just looked at a couple so far. Basically, I was looking for ridiculously large/expensive/highly rated creatures to reanimate, but that was about it. And some spells I stumbled upon while browsing through the deck builder, such as killing wave.

Finlay · « **Reply #515 on:** July 19, 2012, 11:48:16 PM »

I find mtg salvation the clearest website layout of sets.

Wizard's own interface, Gatherer (just google MTG gatherer) has an awesome search engine. It's what I use to build decks, usually. Using its advanced search option, you can search by Power/Toughness, casting cost, set, format, and anything else, in any combination. And it has all the art for the card, too, for every version ever printed of that card. Great resource.

Siberius · « **Reply #517 on:** July 20, 2012, 01:32:15 AM »

I admit I use that angel, but if you give me enough time to get it out it's your own fault.

I don't often get her on the field, so I don't feel too bad, plus I only have the one in that deck.

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #518 on:** July 20, 2012, 08:28:04 AM »

I wish I hadn't deleted my cow deck! Stupid anger.

Siberius · « **Reply #519 on:** July 20, 2012, 10:06:19 AM »

Why on earth would you do that?

Also, dunno if it is any help but I have beem calling my decks names that start with a little thing to differenciate my standaed decks from my others. Eg:

*werewolf

It is pretty effective as it keeps them seperate too as all the * ones are at the top of my list.

Finlay · « **Reply #520 on:** July 20, 2012, 10:10:54 AM »

Because they got pecked to death, then goblined to death.
Never mind the fact they trampled me to death I think three times the night before!

Imagine if you just burned your real cards if your decks lost twice in a row.

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #521 on:** July 20, 2012, 10:23:40 AM »

I know, I'm an idiot!

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #522 on:** July 20, 2012, 10:50:32 AM »

Haha! I just made a vampire deck! Yeah!

No more cheating humans for me. That stupid champion of the parish is no fun at all.

My version of standard by the way is the inistrad block + magic 2013!

Remade the cow deck too, though I can't remember everything that was in it.

I think I want this:

Drat! That's what I wanted to do next.

Oh well. Enough cool themes left to do. Perhaps I need to look at making a REALLY annoying blue one.

Finlay · « **Reply #524 on:** July 20, 2012, 11:57:34 AM »

Good card, but perhaps you overpay because the cows have trample anyway?

Rufus, wont you just have a cheating vampire deck instead of a cheating human one now? :p

No one wants to play an annoying blue deck Aldaris, it’ll be annoying.

I would say I could play at lunch today, but my laptop takes ages to turn on.
