I Need Friends For Online Play! (YouTube)
Social forum
Posted on Sept. 6, 2015, 9:41 p.m. by TeeKayBee
I have a YouTube gaming channel and I just got started back. We will be playing on Untap.in. The only requirements for playing with me is:
- Have Skype and a decent microphone.
- Not a generally shy person. You have to keep up conversation.
- Have a Standard or Modern deck.
I have been wanting to play magic on there for a while but playing it without an actively chatting opponent is boring in my eyes. Plus I can't keep up conversation with the viewers if I'm typing in chat.

What is your end goal for the videa if you don't mind my asking? Like are you doing deck techs, entertainment, play by play advice?

Well, my end goal is to have fun. I love playing magic and I want to play it on my channel. I'm sure I'll have to describe the different abilities and game mechanics. It's not going to be a MTG channel. I just want to play MTG on my gaming channel.
Nice question by the way. Thanks for asking! :D

Eh, sure why not. Sounds like it could be fun. My untap name is the same as on here, and my skype name is eric.irish2

There's a Facebook group here which is useful because it has a document with everyones untap names etc on.

Why does everyone like untap.in so much? It's so horrible compared to Cockatrice.

It's the easiest for everybody. Cockatrice is difficult to understand and requires downloading. Untap in online.

How is Cockatrice more difficult to understand? The only "downside" is that it requires downloading, but the installation and set download has been streamline and improved a lot recently. And the interface is a lot more intuitive than untap in my opinion. Double click to tap/untap, right click for all other actions, CTRL+D to draw a card, CTRL+U to untap, CTRL+Enter to pass turn. On untap you first have to figure out what all the weird icons mean.
Also I always have to cringe when I read "pivot" and "unpivot". I mean come on, even the site is called untap...

Well to give an example, I can't seem to download Cockatrice. Every time I get to the Oracle, I can't get any further. Untap.in requires no download, so it's a lot more initial user friendly. If I could use Cockatrice, I would be using it, but I can't, so I use untap.in.
