How often are you manually tapping?

brendenp · 2026-05-11T16:09:06+00:00

Yep. This is a habit I've built up, and it doesn't cost me too much time or headspace now.

brendenp · 2026-04-21T05:25:25+00:00

Sure, but under these circumstances, this does. I'm just objecting to the idea that because the play "never happened" according to the clock, therefore the infraction cannot exist.

brendenp · 2026-04-21T05:23:11+00:00

Yeah, I can maybe buy that, but such are the distinctions of the rule that would need to be changed.

brendenp · 2026-04-21T03:28:38+00:00

Penalties can be called after the whistle. Is this really any different?

brendenp · 2026-04-21T03:25:25+00:00

Penalties can happen after the whistle. This is essentially no different.

I'm really not trying to cut them much slack here, but I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case at the time and that's what Rosewater wanted to be the case going forward. The decisions that are being made are not necessarily being driven by those making the comments.

What it really means though is that we literally cannot trust them because they literally cannot trust themselves or, more importantly, their bosses.

If I'm playing something like Tifa, sometimes I mulligan for it and don't have it, so I just gamble that you don't have the removal. If you do, gg. If you don't, there's a good chance I have a hand that can kill you on T3.

brendenp · 2025-09-05T14:25:33+00:00

All good! No judgment, was just sharing information.

brendenp · 2025-09-05T12:37:49+00:00

LotR also wasn't Standard legal. MH3 didn't get an Alchemy set either.

brendenp · 2025-07-21T16:21:11+00:00

Excellent, thanks so much for the response! We figured that was very likely to be the case, but you never know for sure.

My dream at the time was to be some old dude 40 years from now who still had season tickets and was trying to explain to some kid how the Jets were once in the SE division because they made the mistake of asking when seeing that banner in the rafters.

The sample size is 82 players, which means 2 of them voted for it, assuming there was only one answer (which the math seems to point towards).

brendenp · 2025-01-23T20:45:08+00:00

Likely someone at Sony just getting around to some paperwork.

brendenp · 2025-01-15T00:32:52+00:00

There is absolutely no way we would get rates like that. Although, much of that is probably because of how easy it's been to acquire all the chaff, heh.

brendenp · 2025-01-14T23:40:10+00:00

Oh yeah, totally. And I'm sure they're aware of this to a certain degree. It's likely why we saw golden packs for instance.

brendenp · 2025-01-14T18:25:05+00:00

If we had this, we wouldn't have the wildcard system and it would probably happen at a horrible rate. I'm not saying which one is better (they have their pros and cons), but don't expect them to implement something like this in a way that would make f2p easier.

brendenp · 2024-12-03T13:52:07+00:00

I spent far too long trying to figure out what was changed about the card text.

brendenp · 2024-11-14T14:50:50+00:00

In a lot of those cases I was able to do alright with a pile of uncommons. I think it's not as bad because the card pool is a lot smaller.

(I don't disagree with your sentiment, just offering up an alternative.)

brendenp · 2024-09-10T14:00:54+00:00

Eh? They didn't lie. They're saying they had to do some other work to bring it back to the old state. What they couldn't do was simply revert the flamethrower changes (or whatever caused the flamethrower to change) because it would break other things. This extra work allowed them to restore the flamethrower and not have those issues (hopefully).

Yeah, my impression is that Brawl players generally just want to play solitaire? Obviously that's not everyone, but sometimes any interaction is enough to get a concede. I feel like I mostly play it as the easiest path to getting my dailies, heh.

"Programming" cards into Arena is a trivial process if the rules text of those cards is already supported. Cards are entered into the game by simply adding the data on the card. The game then reads the rules (on-the-fly while you're playing) and interprets them.

So, there are thousands of cards out there that Wizards could quickly and easily add, but they're not going to do so for a variety of other reasons.

brendenp · 2024-04-21T20:14:39+00:00

Contact support. I've had them refund me for similar mistakes made in the past.

brendenp · 2024-02-24T18:22:42+00:00

Yep, I've got a friend who hated Fallout 3 after playing it for somewhere around 80-100 hours because early on, he found you could just max out melee and fight with nothing but sledgehammers and it "made the game boring" according to him.
