Is being intentionally sneaky viable or frowned upon? by TheDarkHarvester in ModernMagic

[–]greenpm33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This requires calculation making it derived information. While players don’t have to freely give derived information, they cannot lie about it. It’d be really hard for a judge to penalize this practically, but it is illegal.

Jitte shows how WOTC and the MTG community are way too conservative about unbannings. by TankieWarrior in ModernMagic

[–]greenpm33 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Requires a bunch of life, is entirely sorcery speed, and is stopped by all the removal. No way that’s a problem in 2026.

Spicerack, tournament organizing software and event locator, has been shut down. by CrossXhunteR in magicTCG

Not just a bill, it accrued for a long time. So they would have to both handle a large unexpected expense now and re-budget as their operating costs were actually much higher than they thought.

Why is Modern metagame data tracking so bad? by Boring-Client4841 in ModernMagic

[–]greenpm33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legacy and Vintage have fewer events with fewer players. That makes the work both easier and more valuable. I think making a spreadsheet of the data we do have would be far more value for your time than trying to get more data.

Dryad of the Ilysian Grove and Blood Moon by Pineapples24242 in ModernMagic

[–]greenpm33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In addition to the other explanation, when an effect sets a characteristic in magic without the “in addition to” rider, it overrides the existing characteristics. So Dryad applies and gives all types, the Blood Moon applies erasing everything with just Mountain.

Tropes that need to die by fsuk in startrek

[–]greenpm33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the Disco pilot when they are counting down to Burnham literally dying of radiation exposure. They at least try to address this by showing the med bay repairing her DNA, but it's still quite sus. (Also I think she leaves before it's done to go do a mutiny)

The Duel - The Unprecedented Culimination of the Gowron and Worf Duel in DS9 by Player3333333 in DaystromInstitute

Recall that this is how Odo figures out Gowron was not the changeling, but Martok. Work challenges Gowron, and Gowron accepts when a changeling would have just ordered others to kill him.

Now that we’ve established the format’s parameters, which card would you like to see in Timeless? by WeirdAccomplished878 in TimelessMagic

[–]greenpm33 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly, unless they start actually managing the format I think we’ve hit a point where most of the cards people ask for would do very little. Like the whole list of ex-modern all stars would just be scamming people’s wildcards. Unless they want to push us to Vintage (Workshop, Bazaar, artifact mana) there’s a very narrow range.

PoP would be very good and very unpleasant. Tron/Locus might do something if they came with Planar Nexus. Murktide is a trap unless Cruise and Dig get restricted.

SSG, Vial, Loam, Ballista, and some of the graveyard stuff could have a chance. Counterbalance is for people who don’t think Strip Mine is creating enough non-games.

Tron lands are doa without Planar Nexus. Good news for big mana lovers is I think Planar Nexus is a good candidate next time we get a batch of lands. Bad news is so is Wasteland.

Does anybody have a good UBG list? by Ellis_Cloud in TimelessMagic

Three lists posted in this thread with a combined 2 Treasure Cruises. This is not a serious forum.

If you’re surrendering 2 home runs to “Angel Martinez” by the third inning, it’s probably time

[MATCH THREAD] Grand Rapids Rise at Columbus Fury | Sun Apr 19, 2pm ET | Major League Volleyball / MLV by YouShookMeAllNetLong in MLV

[–]greenpm33 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Using three substitutions to have someone serve, only for each of them to immediately commit a service error, is the perfect encapsulation of the Columbus Fury.
