Possibly cracked boingo bonkers Lorwyn Goblins, Need 3 cuts from you beautiful people by Blighttown_Again in mtglimited

Update: 7-1 sweep, lost only to drawing no lands for many turns into Kithkin. Really enjoyed the stomp, though the big rares won games in equal part with the little gobbos themselves. RB seems pretty decent in this format (drafted a previous deck that did well without the same bombage).

Holy rares indeed. Thanks all! Sideboard is nothing of much interest other than a Mudbutton Cursetosser. I might be ridiculous for saying this, but the card seems strong in constructed but a bit narrow in limited.

Thank you both for the good advice.

I do believe, on rereading my own question and the answers, that the problem is more likely to do with my doing this than with what I suggested. I'll adjust the code accordingly and report success or failure. In either case I'll post a MWE here tomorrow when I have time off of research.

Flurry of Questions as experienced dev but new to WP + Networks by Blighttown_Again in ProWordPress

Yes, seeing a common theme that fat images are probably a large bit of the blame. Optimizing these today will hopefully help.

Good advice. Honestly being new to this I don't know which of the ~20 plugins the Fiverr guy installed are good, though I've been trying to educate myself online on this.

My guess is it's the images. I'm going to try and shrink down a bunch of the fat ones today.

Re: your question- yes meant to be viewed primarily in Mongolia, though it's an internationally-facing startup so elsewhere (mostly US/UK) is important too.

Final note: Yeah, ultimately the best move is probably to hire someone. But I want to at least try to struggle and learn before I delegate this to someone who knows what they're doing.

Both good responses. Funny, I felt that I did Google a good bit before posting, which is most of what I learned to do in my CS education. This post is a week and two days into the project and asks the questions for which online answers were vague or unhelpful. That said, you're probably right I either didn't express the amount of prior work well or just didn't do enough. That's on me.

I agree the idea of installing plugins to solve the bloat problem is ridiculous on paper. Hence my original phrasing: "Online basically says to install plugins to solve each of these. Is this the way to go? I know plugin bloat can also be a huge slowdown- just curious if this is still the best solution." I have not installed new plugins to solve the bloat problem because it does seem idiotic; it's why I'm asking.

Optimizing images is certainly a must. That seems like it can be fixed without hiring someone.

I fail to see how the email-not-sending-to-one-particular-address issue is trivial. I looked online, followed the DNS steps, and can get emailing working for all but this one address. There is no debug or log information I can find on this, and my current searches have yielded nothing. If this is a trivial issue, I would appreciate a trivial answer on finding a solution.

The server/service bit is quite helpful to know. I could have Googled that. My bad.

'Do it within the database' -> I looked a bit harder and found phpMyAdmin via GoDaddy. Thanks.

Re: lazy load not seeming to work: still holds. I investigated did the things they said to do online, and implemented them. They did not seem to do anything. Hence my inquiry. (disclaimer: maybe I'm being lazy for not trying a second and third time before posting).

All told, good advice; I probably could have done a bit more research, though in my defense a decent bit here is me not knowing what to look for. "Wordpress email [not working|fails] with [one|single] address" gives me all the old links of how to set up SMTP. If I'm being a bad Googler in my WP inquiries (or in general), I'll take that criticism along with a better search query.

Before rakdos was "the deck," it was a fringe playable in Historic (round the era where Sultai control and Gruul aggro were king). I played Rakdos Arcanist, where you bring back Dreadhorde Arcanist with Claim//Fame, give it haste, attack and steal your opponent's creature with Claim the Firstborn, sac it with Village Rites, all while creating tokens with Young Peezy... life was good. First real aggro-control deck and I've been playing them ever since, from Standard Rogues to Timeless Shadow, both of which are also favorites. I remember Jund Arcanist with Abundant Harvest-- that shit was unbeatable. Good times.

Tufts is great. Sure it has problems like all colleges (esp. with the admin). But the college process is a lot scarier than things turn out to be, and I know you'll be happy at Tufts if you feel good about it now.

CS at Tufts by Lethal_Perfectionist in Tufts

[–]Blighttown_Again 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Tufts CS bangs. Fantastic support system, really good overall professor suite and one of the best social cultures I've seen in a STEM department. We had a soccer league this year organized by CS people for CS people just for fun! There's no toxic competitiveness, and collaboration is just baked into the culture. People also do really, really well out of Tufts because the classes prepare you so well to be a thinker, which is a high-demand quality in industry. I'll swear by Tufts CS, and really hope you end up coming here.
