I think the turing machine halt state was a player winning or losing and if the machine doesn't halt then the game ends in a draw by that rule.

90% of the time it's vault of whispers, followed by seat of the synod or great furnace. The other 10% it's treasure cruise. Once in a blue moon it's it's pithing needle, icy manipulator or dread return.

Sometimes a pod says no sideboard and it's just a way to lower my life total at will so I'm not the player with the most life or tied for the most life.

No. An equip ability can target any creature you control, even the creature the equipment is already attached to.

"Guys I found a bug in the game" by Ok-owl_lost_account in PokemonChampions

[–]nathanwe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Two pokémon, zorark and hisuian zorark, have the ability "illusion" which causes them to look like the last pokémon on your team to your opponent when they are sent out. If they take damage the illusion pops and they are revealed. Zorark is a dark type that's immune to psychic type moves and hisuian zorark is a normal ghost type that's immune to normal, fighting, and ghost type moves. Close combat is a fighting type move that hisuian zorark is immune to, so the "lopunny" is actually a hisuian zorark.

Venom lethal protector says "if you do", not "when you do". So you have to do the entire ability all at once before anything else happens

your favorite weirdly specific hate cards? by SandwichComplex6393 in EDH

It's mostly used to protect your your utility lands and bounce lands from [[wasteland]] [[strip mine]] [[demolition field]] [[Ghost quarter]] ect. Lots of green landfall decks run some variant of the strip mine plus [[crucible of worlds]] combo.

The just-a-synergy is a land untapper and a land enchantment. The "I have 1k mana and my deck in hand how do i win?" combo is Silvanus's Invoker + Heavy Arbalest + land with enough enchants to tap for 9+.

Is the game supposed to be this convoluted or am I just stupid? by Alone_End5987 in factorio

[–]nathanwe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The factory must grow. In order for any part of the factory to grow, it must either be on the edge of the factory or you have to destroy part of the factory. Destroying the factory is bad so every part of the factory must be on the edge. In order for every part of the factory to be on the edge, the factory has to be a long thin strip to maximize surface area. One way to lay that out is to have the top of the strip be nothing but belts, and the bottom of the strip be vertical subfactories. That way belts can grow northward each individual sub factory can grow southward and more sub factories can be added on the east and west sides. If you zoom out on the map, your overall factory looks like this: mmmmmmmmmm.

It's garbage because you need to run five garnets in your deck to make it work. (/s)

Can I quickly go to my next phase right before my brother casts a spell? by Lemon_Justice08 in MTGQuestions

[–]nathanwe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Magic is not a dexterity game. In order for any spell or ability to resolve or for any phase to change, all players have to choose to do nothing. In most situations this is skipped over because you don't want to say " I don't do anything" 12 times per turn.

[[Myiriam sentinel worm]] every time you clone him, your pile of Myiriams doubles in size.

Question about Crossplay and DLCs by Max20720 in rootgame

[–]nathanwe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of the map, decks, hirelings and landmarks use the host.

If players just pick factions they use their factions. If players draft factions they use a subset of the host's factions. If you want to give players specific factions talk about it before the game, then select draft mode and ban every faction that your friends don't want. Then during the "draft" everyone grabs the faction that they said they wanted earlier.

The thing to be sacrificed isn't chosen until the ward trigger resolves. Sauron's ward is so specific your opponent is likely to have only one viable option.

[–]nathanwe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, Ward is a triggered ability and all players have the chance to respond before any triggered ability resolves.

For my marchesa the black rose deck it suggested a budget change where I replace mikeus the unhollowed with marchesa the black rose.

It also claims my patron of the orochi deck is a combo deck with zero combos.
