Your HTML makes me a little sad.
As a general rule, you should nest tags rather than overlap them.
For example,
<p><font color="#FFFFFF" ;font><h3><u>1.What is this deck?</u></h3></font color="#FFFFFF" ;font></p>
is preferable to
<p><font color="#FFFFFF" ;font><h3><u>1.What is this deck?</h3></p></font color="#FFFFFF" ;font></u>
(the latter being your code).
Additionally, three things:
1. You don't use <p> tags if you're using <h> tags. <h3> tags automatically format the header as a unique line.
2. You don't put the attributes in the closing tag.
3. You should use CSS attributes when possible to avoid inserting excess tags.
(Bonus: the "; font" string doesn't do anything.)
So really,
<p><font color="#FFFFFF" ;font><h3><u>1.What is this deck?</u></h3></font color="#FFFFFF" ;font></p>
should be
<h3 style="color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: underline;">1.What is this deck?</h3>
Of course, your code does still work, but there's much greater potential for error, and it shows some HTML proficiency yet to be gained.

So I'm contemplating contacting one of the writers of a b/w token primer on mtgsalvation and discussing our different philosophies of card choices for b/w tokens and why we think each is better. It would be good to hear an opposing viewpoint I think.

@sirbar: Google w3schools and spend some time poking around. HTML is very easy to pick up.

Talking about the Elspeth debate? Each one has its strengths. Personally, I think that Tirel is better for the attrition strategy, but you can't deny that Knight-Errant is superior at being aggressive. Depends on the main goal of the deck.

Anyone else having problems with the card search page? Even without filters it wont display cards..
April 21, 2015 8:53 p.m.
Yeah, that's one thing I would enjoy discussing with him. I hope he responds to my message.
April 21, 2015 8:54 p.m.
Dafuq? I never drew that many cards...
I didn't see that, and klone13 didn't either. Must have been a glitch on your computer... :P

KranonV2 Welcome to a wonderful place. We're nice people. Except for maybe 6tennis.
Anyhoo, I know that feel Ryo. It annoys the living crap out of me.

This isn't the first one either KranonV2. I invite you to grab yourself a bag of popcorn and read through Just Chatting.

Oh, and folks, we are 17 more pages away from the new version. Since the last Just Chatting thread now ends at 200 pages.
April 21, 2015 9:04 p.m.
Oh, cool! Didn't realize that we were that close. I wanna make the next one gold, by not closing the font tag in its description.
Actually, nah. That would be evil.

It's a thread, dammit. A forum is the thing the thread is in.

ONWARD FOR 200!!!!
Dibs on that post BTW. The first one on 200.

Did I say forum? I don't think I did. Did I? GAH. CONFUSION IS CONFUSING ME.

Femme: a migraine is like having a clamp on your temples and it's slowly tightening. Hurts like a bitch. Also, you get really light sensitive and it hurts to focus on words or especially screens. Don't forget the slightest noises will make your head pound.
It is awful.
April 21, 2015 9:21 p.m.
Guess there is no deck worth building for meta call.. -.- Hatebears is all I got..
April 21, 2015 9:22 p.m.
Femme_Fatale says... #23
Soooo ... I get migraines all the time then, but for me they only flare up in response to sexual stimuli?

They make me want to turn off the lights, go to bed, and murder the first person who dares interrupt my slumber.

Yes there is Ryotenchi. It's called CCBB.
Collected Company Bant Bears.

Femme_Fatale says... #27
Like no, they flare up when I'm sexually aroused. Sort of like how yours flare up with light, noise and what not. The more sexually aroused I am the more it hurts, with the peak of the pain being when I'm sexually active as sometimes that's the only method to clear up my sexual arousal.
April 21, 2015 9:29 p.m.
Femme_Fatale Whats the point in having two hatebears? Im talking meta call, as in a 2nd deck..
At this point its.. Build burn and lose to abzan.. build twin.. build abzan.. affinity just seems to weak and all or nothing to even justify..
April 21, 2015 9:31 p.m.
Go rogue. Look into Patrick Chapin's Esper Delve deck. NO, FOR THE LAST TIME, IT'S NOT DELVER. IT'S DELVE. As in Taz and Gurmag Angler. Bunch of 1-mana spells too. Liliana of the Veil + Lingering Souls helped a lot too to fuel the stuffs.
I shit you not, this was at PT FRF.
April 21, 2015 9:33 p.m.
Femme, you might wanna get that checked out. Might be a tumour.

I forgot about this thread.
This thread has gotten about ~7.5 comments per hour for the last ~52 days. That's quite impressive. The last thread only had a rate of about 2.5 comments per hour. On second thought, I don't know if impressive is the correct word, maybe sad.
Also as a side note I HATE bloody noses
April 21, 2015 9:37 p.m.
Every time I try to brew a rogue deck.. it ends in it falling over to tier 1 decks.. I dont care if it loses to them.. but if it cant play the game against them at all.. I cant justify building it..
Its like a game of chess.. only there are no white pieces just black on the other side and you get to sit and watch as you 'mystically' lose the game.

6tennis I agree with you. Try the delve deck, I have 2 copies of Mishra's Bauble that I need to get rid of that no seems to want outside or manaless drege of esper delve.

Huh that's interesting. We all have our triggers, I guess.
April 21, 2015 9:50 p.m.
Femme_Fatale says... #37
No Ohthenoises, as in, the pain will continue if I DON'T try and appease my sexual arousal. The phrase "get it over with now, otherwise you'll just prolong the pain" comes to mind. I hate pain.
There are a lot more users lordoftheshadows. None of the old ones though. No vampirelazarus, no gnarlicide, no fluffybunnypants and no Ohthenoises.
I'm saying Ryotenchi, that Bant Bears IS the meta call. It IS your answer.
April 21, 2015 9:50 p.m.
Idk you are triggering a part of the brain that causes pain. Know that there is no education behind this.

Femme Fluffy said on his page that he's moving. And his wall is pretty much up-to-date, so I think he'll be back shortly.

No vampirelazarus? Im still here, just can't keep up with this thread, so I don't even try after the first one died.

Okay, so I can confirm that it seems to be only on that thread. yeaGO, you might want to check the coding on the T/O forum since that replacement phenomena was only happening there.

Femme_Fatale do you have a guide anywhere for the styling you used to make your page? It looks really cool and I must now do mine.
Also Epochalyptik are css animations discouraged? I just learned about them but I imagine they have horrible loading times.
April 21, 2015 10:16 p.m.
Femme_Fatale says... #47
CSS animations are discouraged by yours truly. If you wait 2 weeks I'll have the tutorial for profile animations up and running lordoftheshadows.

filledelanuit says... #48
Profile animations?????????
I am fairly proficient at web programming but I cannot CSS to save my life. I am horrible at making things pretty. I designed a website for my robotics team and decided to make the color scheme orange and purple, needless to say they weren't pleased.
Also, I took a look at your profile, how to you make your containers transparent but not the text inside of them? Do you use rgba for coloring instead of the opaque attribute?
April 21, 2015 10:21 p.m.
Femme_Fatale says... #50
You can only make the containers transparent as long as you use only colour. The moment you try and use an image you can't make the background transparent. Instead you have to inlay a transparent box underneath the text, but over the image, to produce the effect that allows your text to be more visible.
And yes, I use RGBA.
And no. NEVER use animations. They REALLY fuck people's computers and phones up. I'm even going to spread around a code for everyone to use that disables them when they put it into their deck/profile/thread descriptions.

I don't know what a migraine feels like. I've never had one. At least I don't think I ever did. I can't tell because if any pain in my head occurs I just call it a headache, take some advil and avoid anything sexual.
