Folders for our decks?
General forum
Posted on May 14, 2010, 4:40 p.m. by DeckBuilder345
I have made a few decks, for some of the different competitions and things, and i would like to keep them around but i don't necessarily want them populating my deck list making it harder to find the ones i am currently working on. I also have a deck or two that are just lists of cool cards that i may want to use in the future sort of like a reference guide.
In any event I would like to be able to put these types of decks into say a sub folder of my deck list, which I would reference only when I needed them, thereby moving the more recent decks that I am working on to the top of the list. Is there any way to reasonably do this on the site already that i just haven't found, or must I just suffer through a large list?

As a coder myself, that token system needs work. If yeaGO! is interested in it however, I believe he could do it. All it takes is caffeine

Yea sorry I have very little experience with all the web coding stuff. I would just really like to see this become a thing. XD that picture is great.

my 2 cents is for a 1/1 black zombie no additional traits could = [ [1BZombie] ]a 1/1 black vampire with lifelink = [ [1BVampireLL] ] etc just an idea though being as tokens dont usually have a lot of additional traits on a single token except named tokens which isnt a problem

@yamicannon and VinylScratch: Thing is, you already wrote so much about the token anyway, that it doesn't matter whether you bracket it or not.
How is
[ [ 1BVampireLL ] ] different from 1/1 Vampire with Lifelink, look wise?
Also, making asymmetrical P/T tokens would be just as time-consuming as it is now, and abbreviations of keywords would be a nuissance to remember.

Fair enough was just giving an idea only other idea i could think of is [ [1spiritC13] ] for a Commander 2013 1/1 spirit token w/ flying only thing that would need to be figured out is if there are multiple instances of the same token i.e. theros soldiers which we could rectify w/ [ [1rwsoldierthe] ] true its still a little long but this isnt for every1 its a quick thing for specific people wanting to make horde decks and could be used in forums to talk about art not for people making any other casual or competitive style deck as you wouldnt be adding tokens to your decklist but this is a little more simplistic then typing the whole thing out btw this is just an option not every1 will like it but its a possibility that would be fairly easy to code IF the coder chooses to actually do this if he doesnt this whole discussion is mute.

If we did it i think the best way would be to have a community system where people added tokens to the pages of the cards that made them, and you'd have [ [ ajani, caller of the pride T ] ] or something. For cards that made more than one (very few, but they exist Garruk, Primal Hunter ), then you implement the 1,2 system where it's the order that they appear on the card, but i agree even this sounds quite impractical.

True that is another good system and practicality doesn't really apply here being its a select few(forum users and horde deck makers) so the practicality would be limited to those 2 things and a coder's will to implement so I see 2 possible ways to do this without too much trouble that is if the coder wants to lol

Probably not, but the system you propose for handling tokens is convoluted and unnecessary. We would need to have a streamlined, easy way to implement tokens.
