My job ruined Minecraft for me. Way too many children obsess over it

VampireArmy I have an xbone... reserved for my massive and crippling addiction to destiny.
November 9, 2015 10:07 p.m.
... and also I don't want to buy other games for it. Magic takes up too much money already.

Pro_Noob what's you GT? I play A LOT of Destiny.
Anyway guys, Long time no see! How is everyone?
I come here to ask everyone's help on a new format the better players at my store are trying out, Not particularly new but whatever. Its called $10 Dollar magic, Basically you have to contruct a 60 card deck that costs no more than $10...The format uses the vintage ban list in addition to all cards on the restricted being banned as well. Basic lands DO NOT count towards the $10.
Anyone want to build me a deck?
My apologies if this Thread has become even less Magic oriented than last time here and if so direct me to an appropriate forum.

All of the above. Level 312 with 90% of the exotics has its perks...

Git gud scrub. I predominantly play PvP but am still 315 light.
I'll be playing Fallout 4 once I get my 50 in Rumble.

Has anyone seen "Narcos"? It's about Paublo Escabar and the cocaine trade in Columbia, and the formation of the Medellin cartel. I'm on episode three, and the show is absolutely fascinating. Completely brutal, they've gone so far as to hang a fucking cat, but absolutely fascinating.

I personally like to use TV as a mental test. I turn on a kid's show, and watch until I feel like I am being eaten by a Brain Maggot

The only kids programming I really watch nowadays is Lazy Town, which is a surprisingly engaging show with some unintentionally creepy character models.

Well today was registration day for the spring semester, which is usually a disaster here. I was one of the later times and managed to get the classes I wanted but not at the best times. Today was a pretty good day.

Why does everybody care so much about points
November 11, 2015 11:21 p.m.
i don't really care but i was making sure it wasn't a bug or something..

The database or code or something is being all wonky so the site is suffering a bit but I think yeago is working on it
November 11, 2015 11:54 p.m.
If anyone is interested in awesome documentaries, Secrets of Scotland Yard is very interesting. It's on Netflix.

Meanwhile I'm just waiting for Jessica Jones. Has anyone ever been so bored they wrote an essay for the hell of it? Because that's me. It was due a few days ago so I probably should have gotten around to it before now regardless.
November 12, 2015 5:48 a.m.
What's with this point glitch? I was at rank 16, and now I'm 710...
November 12, 2015 2:01 p.m.
Femme_Fatale says... #32
There was a database wipe across the whole site xzzane. A lot of information was lost. Points, top draft picks, notifications, recent threads, comment streams ... all that stuff and most likely a lot more was lost.
November 12, 2015 4:51 p.m.
Femme_Fatale says... #35
Probably pertaining to the few crashes that occurred and reset notifcations a while back? I actually think it started when yeago had to dredge up all of my submissions that were rejected when they shouldn't have been. The crashes occurred right after that, and then all these other issues started popping up. The notifications were first, then the forum threads and comment streams, then the top draft picks data, and finally the points.

Still 178, but the points of people who are in the top 100 are... >eird. o-o

It's the fault of whatever rejected my submissions.

You know, I get the feeling my rank is actually bugged or something. It hasn't really changed in well over a year, with really only a fifteen point or so swing from 130-145. Even the site having its latest seizure didn't do anything to it.
November 12, 2015 7:57 p.m.
Femme_Fatale says... #41
Generally if you don't have something that is putting you higher in rank than someone else, you'll be on the same level as numerous people who are also contributing the same amount to this site as you are. We have a lot more people than we used to, so to actually advance you have to be contributing a lot more than normal. Hence why the requirement to change your title was lowered.
I can attest that the rank system was certainly not bugged, as I've been watching the people who contribute to the card database and they go up higher than others when they do. As for right now, I cannot say. It appears a certain requirement must be met for your points to reset.
November 12, 2015 8:44 p.m.
canterlotguardian says... #42
What is that requirement? I only dropped 4 points but I would very much like those points back.
November 12, 2015 8:50 p.m.
Femme_Fatale says... #43
I think it is whenever you perform a deck cycle.
November 12, 2015 10:29 p.m.
VampireArmy says... #44
Yep. Deckcycling wipes your rank out. Good ridance though. Let others have at my spot ha ha. If i can get through one day without someone getting Roasted for no reason on here I'll call it a good day
November 12, 2015 10:34 p.m.
Femme_Fatale says... #45
I actually quite like that. It will limit the amount of deck cycles going in once people realize this happens and will let those that just want to use this site to get help on their decks to actually get help. The majority of people don't want to spend money on feature tokens just to get help on a deck.
November 12, 2015 10:40 p.m.
ThisIsBullshit says... #46
Limit the amount of deck cycles? Lol I think very few of the people who deckcycle give two shits about their rank.
All it does is screw the upgraded users whose points get nerfed every time they deckcycle - which is more often.
Also I don't give a fuck about rank I just want to be able to change my title at will
November 12, 2015 11:16 p.m.
elpokitolama says... #47
That's really weird indeed... It is to encourage us to use tokens instead of cycling?
I completely agree with on everything you said Tibs'
November 13, 2015 9:49 a.m.
I'm just tryna get advice on my convoluted, weird modern decks so the deckcycle thing I wouldn't care much about although I agree with lama in agreeing with tibs
November 13, 2015 9:51 a.m.
Ohthenoises says... #49
@Femme_Fatale no, that can't be the only way because I haven't cycled in approximately 4 months.
I lost mine too, not like IGAF but...

That Delver vs Lands Legacy match was as impressive as it was brutal. What a hideously strong anti-creature deck!!
