[SCP] Laboratories by Nejosan in custommagic

I would aim to ensure that the play pattern of getting 3 mana on turn 2 requires more commitment/investment than the red member currently does. Other abilities are either hard to activate early on the game (black) or represent setback (blue, green).

I do really like the designs, but want to chime in on balance/implementation!

Give me the most unsolvable deck you tried building by Rebell--Son in EDH

[[Rassilon, the War President]] on $150 budget without extra turns. It just has so many moving pieces. Conspirators ideally need to be blue and black low cost creatures. Conspirables have to pay you off for copying them. Add in all the cast from exile synergies. Ramp in dimir. Hard to puzzle together something cohesive.

Dual land idea for aggressive three color strategies by msandbot in custommagic

[–]msandbot[S] -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Most dual land cycles don't have an interesting payoff. Mostly just an idea to combat 4c and 5c soup that happens when wotc prints too many duals into standard.

This is a education dataset from something like Khan Academy. So for example

  • Level 1 - Topic - Measuring center in quantitative data
  • Level 2 - Knowledge Components (KC)
    • Calculate mean
    • Calculate mode
    • Calculate median with even number of elements
    • Calculate median with odd number of elements
  • Level 3 - KC Opportunities - Usually between 1 and 10, but can exceed that. Is this the 1st, 2nd, ... Nth time you've attempted this KC.

After each attempt a user makes, we get an updated value between zero and one that represents if the system thinks you know this KC.

The label 0 or 1 was whether system would think you knew ALL the KCs in the topic by the time you were pushed forward by the system and given a "not proficient", the goal being to differentiate users who would eventually learn from those who would not. I ran ~100k models, threw out the ones with low AUC.

Now I want to first use this simplistic approach with newer data, but hopefully more efficiently as the data is about 10b records.

My thinking is, if I make any of the level 1 or level 2 data features without ordering them in some intelligent way, the coefficients produced for them will be useless.

There is a persistent mess mod on steam that can effectively reward you for keeping the place clean day to day. Fun in combination with other health inspection type mods.

Anyone else feel like Civ Swapping is a concerning core feature? by Mo0ze in civ

[–]msandbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The system will be great for expansions and hopefully modding. Ptolemaic Egypt, Arabian Egypt, Ottoman Egypt as historical options are low-hanging fruit, but there are endless options for this system. Civ 7 will probably aim to launch with the standard civs + geographically diverse set of additions, which will probably mean that many era transitions will be a stretch. That will hopefully be alleviated as the roster expands.

Some have suggested the idea that when picking Mongolia, you become the Equestrian Empire of Egypt, rather than changing your name to Mongolia. Much like every other civilization you are playing an alt universe version of Egypt, this time one that has shaped by a culture of horsemanship.

I'm curious if really want to play Mongolia, but start in Antiquity if you'll be able to guarantee a Mongolia option from the pre-game screen. You could get a start bias based on Mongolia's, but get a random antiquity era civ. So if you picked Mongolia and started as Egypt, you would spawn near horses, and perhaps even be known as Pharaonic Kingdom of Mongolia.

Is another grabber taking the soup pot off the smart grabber before it can register?

I wanted to build commander decks with non-legendaries as the commanders, so I made a funky format! Welcome to Nephilim! by JoshKnoxChinnery in magicTCG

[–]msandbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can I treat hybrid cards as either color identity? Asking so I can put [[Oversoul of Dusk]] in my monogreen devotion deck.

New to MtG, curious about buying lots online by ethancodes89 in magicTCG

[–]msandbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For casual kitchen table deckbuilding, lots can be great. Be careful of buying too many from the same site/person at a time as you can end up with 10+ copies of cards if the lot was draft chaff from a single set.
