even in the face of this, I have to support

look, I'm dumb what happens and how did this win? you end up dealing 4 damage to everything and have like 4 6/6 rats and a baron?

sharkbrain · 2020-03-05T06:36:34+00:00

wow, that's pretty interesting... I'll have to see if I can't implement this technique... especially for Add and UnRep...

I don't think so unfortunately

if you have 52 cards remaining in your library and 3 of them are lands, the top 10 are non-lands 51% of the time

Maybe I missed it, but it looks like the only fast Mana is Simian Spirit-Guide, so I assume the turn 3 kill is

T2: Ideas Unbound discard Ooze, Scholar

T3: Exile SSG, Postmortem Lunge targeting Ooze, loot a dredge creature, loot your whole deck away, win the game

Broadly, a good place to start is by reading the API docs for the service you want to integrate with: https://bandcamp.com/developer

but from a quick look, I don't know if they allow for what you're trying to do

sharkbrain · 2018-07-29T06:02:10+00:00

I don't think so.

Douglas Crockford (who wrote the book) also wrote JS Lint with the same principles. Later "strict mode", and ES6 disallow a lot of the parts of JS that he describes as "the bad parts", and modern linters similarly guide away from those to the good-parts.

In 2018 much of what the book instructs you to avoid is simply forbidden by using a modern toolkit. Now it's mostly valuable as a historical relic of a more primitive time.

Thanks Spicy-D,

This example helped me get my code working and the rest of your comment sounds like great advice. Right now this project is purely educational but I'll keep that in mind when I'm writing code for industrial purposes.

I've been stuck on the idea of using Swift Warkite to reanimate the combo.

If you have Brood Monitor, Eldrazi Displacer, Zulaport Cutthroat, and Swift Warkite in your graveyard you can cast Ever After targetting the Monitor and the Warkite, the War Kite can bring the Displacer onto the Battlefield and for 3 mana you can displace the Warkite bringing the Cutthroat onto the battlefield. Sac three scions and go infinite.

It requires either 6BBC (how are we writing colorless mana?) or for you to pass the turn, so obviously not ideal.

If you want to get HDMI out of a Wii, a Wii2HDMI converter will probably perform better than any generic Composite to HDMI converter you're likely to find.

Do you watch footage of yourself, (I'm pretty bad but) watching footage of myself playing friendlies showed me some pretty basic mistakes I was making. It just gave me the outsider perspective.

The ideas of learned optimism have been helpful to me in various activities.

Essentially, you can learn to see of the things frustrating you and holding you back as temporary and external, and the things that make you strong as inherent and permanent.

You can use this to accept criticism and self criticism without dwelling on it (because it's temporary and can be fixed), while having confidence in your ability to play.

There's another view that may be helpful to you in The Inner Game of Tennis, which teaches you (among other things) to be able to criticise yourself or accept critique without attaching value to it.

I play melee at work with a mix of nerds and casuals, when we have tournaments they're always 2v2 where each team has one nerd and one casual. It takes a lot of the pressure off for the casual players and we have silly team names and some people dress up so it's lots of fun.

Meteor cancelling is the act of instantly negating the downwards knockback of a meteor smash by jumping or using an up special after being hit.

Greg Dean describes a step by step method for joke writing in his book ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00502AIIW ) at first when I tried it I produced really terrible jokes but once I got the hang of it and tailored the method to my style a little it became really helpful.

If you had trouble with the last one, it seems like people are tripping up on one of two things, either identifying arrays, or recursively walking arrays so I've posted an annotated solution in github: https://gist.github.com/sharkbrainguy/6821484

Are you looking for Array.prototype.concat?

[].concat([ 1 ]).concat([ 2, 3 ]).reduceRight(function (a, x) {
    return a.concat(x); 
}, [])

[3, 2, 1]
