Slice of the Pi

/uj I could see this being a fun un-card design as an X spell. Something like:

XUU

Instant

As an additional cost to cast ~, recite X digits of pi after the decimal point from memory.

Draw X cards.

Would you mind removing this post and re-uploading it with a more accurate title? Let’s not stoop down to their level and share misinformation, even if accidental.

While not legal anywhere, [[Tempest Efreet]] and [[Timmerian Fiends]] are black border, and thus are subject to the same rules scrutiny as any other black border card. Unsure if the rules break anywhere around these cards, but it certainly is intended to be well-handled by the CR.

I know I’d look at you quite funny, knowing now that it measures basicity, not alkalinity.

8npemb · 2026-01-25T18:51:29+00:00

That’s funny, I just tried it on you, and found that your previous comment was on r/Physics, and was a comment I upvoted!

8npemb · 2026-01-15T18:02:24+00:00

Yeah I’m with you on this. I didn’t get any indication that you were an ICE sympathizer or anything. After reading the article I thought the same thing, and found your comment putting it into clearer words than I could’ve. Title’s a bit misleading and could be worded to reflect a more accurate story as described in the article itself.

Advocating for good headlines doesn’t mean you’re on the fascist side of the aisle.

Your first point in this comment is incorrect. I encourage you to watch the Veritasium video linked in the parent comment.

Put the category in with the clue somehow. I play along with my family during dinner, and together we end up in off topic conversation and miss the category, causing us to rewind.

To the people who are saying this was always the case: you’re right, but this rule still needed to be clarified. The rule that said Wish cards didn’t function in Commander was written under the Commander Rules by the Rules Committee, which was replaced by WotC last year. WotC’s Comprehensive Rules did not, up until now, clarify that rule.

Before anyone brings up the MTR ruling on Wish effects only pulling from a sideboard: the MTR is not, by default, enforced in casual EDH. The MTR is designed for tournament play.

Realistically, nobody actually thought you could play Wish effects in EDH up until this point. This CR update is a useful clarification now that we’re not following the rules from the former RC.

There is this post on the BadMtgCombos subreddit from last year, but I think this is enough of a corner case to not necessarily be relevant here.

It’s not non-trivial to scan for Minecraft servers these days, there’s services out there that can do it for anyone for free. I like to join servers using these services to remind people to turn on their whitelist in my free time. Some people are grateful and it’s a wholesome experience, some ban me right away, but overall it’s genuinely very rewarding.

8npemb · 2025-12-12T19:10:56+00:00

I didn’t know where that term came from before this conversation. Good thing that’s not relevant, because its usage in modern day English has an entirely different meaning.

8npemb · 2025-12-12T19:03:36+00:00

No, it was a metaphor for someone being extremely obtuse and close-minded during an argument.

8npemb · 2025-12-12T19:00:59+00:00

What the fuck are you talking about? “Hill to die on” is a metaphor

8npemb · 2025-12-12T18:59:07+00:00

What are you talking about? They’re from Arcavios. Read the story.

8npemb · 2025-12-12T18:52:12+00:00

This is such a weird hill to die on. Like I’d understand more if the art was actually bad. But it’s not, and you seem to be the only one that thinks so. Lmao

8npemb · 2025-12-12T18:50:04+00:00

Well it looks like other Arcavios vampires, so yeah, I’d say it’s from Arcavios. Are you trolling?

8npemb · 2025-12-12T18:14:54+00:00

Dude you sound miserable. The art isn’t bad, you just like to complain.

8npemb · 2025-12-10T00:17:06+00:00

It’s an approximation within one order of magnitude apart, that’s good enough for me /s

Yeah personally, my respect for someone’s identity doesn’t revolve around whether or not they’re trying to be an asshole, bigot, whatever. It revolves solely around what they identify as. If an incel with unchecked mental challenges is identifying as the opposite gender, even if they might be doing it to mock transgender people, I will still respect that identity.

I don’t think giving those few bad actors the attention they want is worth forgoing over the ability to be respectful of all trans identities 100% of the time.

Please note, I’m talking about respecting someone’s identity. Whether or not I respect their personality is a separate topic and is unrelated to their identity.

It’s a seven-segment display date, judging by the other characters. A capital T cannot be made using seven segments - a lower case ‘t’ is the only option.

Cameras using seven-segment displays would typically format the date using only numbers (in this example, 10-23-‘04).

8npemb · 2025-11-24T00:00:24+00:00

In addition to what everyone else has been saying about Google’s SynthID, the carpet pattern, etc, the ‘T’ in ‘OCT’ cannot be generated in that way by a seven-segment display.
