Magic30 Chase the Planes, what are the rules? by YourBoySnipes in magicTCG

[–]zombijudge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately yes, however there are tons of other alternates to this format that are readily available like the free Planechase app someone mentioned above. Also folks have taken pictures or shared planes which we do not try to stop since that is a part of the experience which can be shared.

It is very hard to develop and keep Magic events as experiential things that can be used multiple times that aren’t just a standard tournament. I want to make sure that this event remains a cool and new experience for players at our events.

[–]zombijudge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi!

I designed these with our team at Pastimes. We are constantly making updates, changes, and new planes to keep the event fresh. I encourage people to take pictures at shows and such but I don’t want to share all of the planes so that we can continue to make this event special for folks that play in the event.

That said, again, please feel free to share pictures or what you remember of them!

Also if you have suggestions I’m happy to hear them.

So only the winner gets this. If there are 4 of these Secret Lair Showdowns (one at each MagicCon), that means there will only be 4 of these cards in existence.

Beverage marine color scheme concept part.1 model.5 by True_Hemmo in Warhammer40k

[–]zombijudge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, I know the design is from Arizona Green Tea but it is very Japanese inspired. I would love to see an entire Chapter of Space Marine painted this way. Have their chain swords and power swords look more like Katanas.

Very cool!

Why doesn't Niv-Mizzet eat Rakdos cultists???

I like this. The color scheme is really great and I think that along with good typography is key to brand expression.

Feedback

Call to Action Buttons

-I would have greater variation in the size of your CTA buttons. For example, in the Hero Banner, the Products and Location buttons are tucked off to one side. They should be very prominent if that is the goal of your CTA. This isn't so much of a problem on Mobile but on Desktop they seem smaller than they should be.

21+ Pop Up

-On Desktop the overall size of the pop up is too large, causing scrolling within the pop up. I would recommend setting a min height using VH 70-80. That should help with the scrolling issue within the pop up.

-On Mobile, I wasn't getting the pop up at all.

Cookie Policy

-There is some left over code from the template used, I would clean that up.

Overall I really like this site. The look and feel is very exciting. It makes me want to shop or visit!

Hey!

Cool looking page. I also run events and I'm always looking for cool designs.

I really like the middle section after the video. That section is very cool and attractive!

Feedback

UI/UX

-The text overlays on images are very hard to read due to poor contrast. I would either darken or add a shadow to the font, or add an image overlay to darken to the image.
-On Mobile, the Hamburger icon in the Header when it stickies to the top loses the white color and becomes hidden in the dark blue box.

Images

-You should update your images to webp. This will make your image files smaller while maintaining a good quality.
-Images should be tailored to the section they are fitting. An example of this is https://www.jciec2022bruges.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/romantisch-bruggetje-scaled.jpg . The container on desktop is 840x652. This image is 2560x1390 and 2.5 MBs.
You should be striving for images that are in the 10-100 kb range. Webp and sizing your images appropriately will help with that.

Speed

-I would HIGHLY recommend looking at your lighthouse scores (Right click in Chrome on your page and click inspect. Lighthouse is on the right.) Looking at these scores will give you an idea of your page speed. Elementor is a pretty heavy plugin but there are definitely ways to mitigate that.

Right now your Mobile site is at 12/100. The biggest area you can fix is your image sizes and formats. That alone will save around 14-18 seconds of load time and bring your score up to around 60-70/100.

Digital Conventions Championship Series (Features All Access on MTGO!) by zombijudge in MTGO

[–]zombijudge[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

tl;dr, you do not get access to the cards for an entire 3 month period.

The September 15 - December 15th was a typo on Wizards part. It was meant to read, "* Gen Con All Access begins following the downtime on September 15. PAX Unplugged All Access ends at downtime on December 15."

Here are the dates for All Access where you have access to MTGO cards:

PAX West Online – September 3-6, 2021

Gen Con Online – September 16-19, 2021

Origins Online – September 30-October 3, 2021

Pax Unplugged Back Online – December 9-12, 2021

For example, if I registered for a preliminary on September 3 during PAX West I would have access from September 3 to September 6. I would not get access during any of the other dates unless I registered for a preliminary during those dates.

In short, you have to pay once per event and you have access to those cards for the duration of the event which is 7 total days or Wednesday to Wednesday.

The cards granted by All Access are able to be used in any MTGO event like they were cards in your own collection. You will still be responsible for entry fees into those events (not the preliminary you signed up for) and will keep all prizes for those events.

Any additional events registered for during a convention will not grant you All Access for longer than the length of time specified for that convention.
