Yeah but why would she keep paying for something she doesn't use.

Whatever, the worst thing that can happen is we have to go to the wizards forum wait GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Honestly I have no idea, it's there by default so I assumed someone found it useful. Since we now have one person saying it's pointless clutter and zero disagreeing, it's gone -- if someone asks 'where'd that go?!' we can reconsider.


That would be me.


It does now! It maybe even works. Don't code while half-asleep, folks.

Also I found a bizarre bug I will have to come back and figure out when i'm not exhausted. If you go to the search page, click "Search" (to get all cards ever", and click the link for either "Next" or "2" (to get the 2nd page of results). Or just card_search.php?start=10 .

For some reason, that value of the 'start' parameter (and, as far as I can tell, no other) takes you to the page for Brightspear. It's weird.

Yay go welder for paying for us all!

yay! go complaining!

wait really? that's awesome of you. is there any thought to putting together some crowdfunding for it? I don't know how much I can personally throw in as I am, as the kids say, unemployed at the moment, but given that I spend about 30 hours a day here I'd be happy to chip in a little and I'm sure others would too. obviously should be optional, and probably shouldn't be super-advertised so people don't feel like they have to if they can't/don't want to, but might help spread the burden out a little bit.

there's no smilie for crying tears of joy why is that

Would it be possible to have custom, on-the-fly NGA autocard tags? So we could add some parameters to a tag which would generate a card link that looks like a NGA autocard?

Something like:

[newcard=Black Lotus, 0, Artifact, T, Sacrifice Black Lotus: Add three mana of any one colour to your mana pool.]Black Lotus[/newcard]

Hm, this reminds me, at some point we should probably talk about making it possible to just embed NGAC cards in the wiki... it'll make the work I did creating a card template for the wiki pointless but I think in time my broken heart will mend.

I'm just bumping this, because I expect it got lost in another discussion. I'd imagine something like:

Not entirely sure on the tag. Avatar/image source/credit?

Could we get a twenty-mana mana symbol, as seen on Spawnsire of Ulamog?

Can we get an NGA Constructed tag similar to [Standard]?

Done.

or .


Ah, sorry for missing this. URLs (or any other non-plain-text things) aren't supported natively in custom profile fields and I haven't looked at what it would take to make that work, but I suppose I could. Alternatively, URL profile fields are apparently included with the latest version of phpbb, so it's probably better to look into getting us actually up-to-date.


It shouldn't be too bad... view_card.php?name=<name>&view=render spits out html for the (admittedly-simplistic) render of <name>, so that's easily available. Not sure how the wiki side of things works though.


This is a thing that could happen, sure. It'll have to be somewhat limited, though -- in particular, I don't know how cards with multiple lines of rules text would work. (Amusingly, this means Warp World would be easier to do than Ainok Tracker.)

it's a little hard to tell but this guy is actually pretty happy:


It's surprisingly cheap to fund this place, and I have a reasonably well-paying job. But I appreciate the thought!

Thank you.

I just wanted to bring up multiquotes again. any chance those are possible?

Could we get a smiley that looks like it just got a really good idea? Maybe one with a lightbulb floating by its head?

Is not good enough for you?

Well, I guess you could use then.

strikes me as more "run for your life!"

was there all along wasn't it? I swear guys, I really do try and check for these things before making a request.

Huh, it's spelled as lightbuilb on the Smilie viewer. New request: Somebody fix that.

The input form on the NGA Card Search really, really needs to search when you hit enter, or I might go insane.

Yes it does hAhAhAhAhA!
Although it still beats this software that my university uses that treats enter like tab.

I love you welder

Could we also maybe be able to choose to organize the search results by converted mana cast?
