It's okay, PhyreMynd. I actually hadn't noticed Menarch's carried over line of text there. So I'm sorry as well.
Here's the thing - I've watched the MWS spoiler thing get absolutely ridiculous the last few seasons. It used to be just Memnarch alone. Then it was a bunch of people posting mulitple threads about it, and there was lots of confusion. Then I forced them all into one thread, and there was still lots of confusion. This time around, we actually tried making a small group of past editors to edit the spoiler on a google wave. As one might guess, it didn't exactly pan out. (although I'm still convinced at this one being a step in the right direction)
I'm still interested in ideas on how to make this process better. So if anyone has ideas, I'm all ears.
Yes, indeed. And as I said above, I'm interested in ideas.
Is there an actual colorless frame in the MWS theme? I'm sure there's a colorless land frame, but a plain colorless frame? That's never seen print, so I wouldn't expect MWS to mess with it.
Well on Goblinhero's patch he uses artifact for Ghostfire, so I'm gonna guess there isn't one.
I tried to use MWS Play but apparently it keeps saying that I have an Invalid File Format. This is after I added the worldwake cards to one deck. Every other deck without WWK is fine though.
Having this same issue. Attempted multiple installs with WWK and restarts of MWS each time. Still getting errors.
Okay I've done some searching on the forums and the MWS thread as well. I've searched google and every time someone asks how to do something on anything they just get complaints about it being in the wrong forum (which I understand why that's important) or, like the post above, they get a reply saying "use search". The search hasn't helped me figure out why when I add WWK to my MWS I can't use those cards in a deck. The question gets asked but never answered. If I've missed it, I'm sorry, but I have looked. I don't really have all day to look.
So could someone refer me a link or use the search and prove me wrong and make me look dumb (I know that's important)? I really don't give a @^% but I'd really just like to know how to do it, even if I get labeled a nub (*gasp*).
Also, not all this animosity is in reference to the members of this forum.

So watch the bombs explode.
I more meant that this is not the right thread to ask it in, as there's one just a few pixels away labeled "MWS Help Thread" (or something, I'm not looking at it right now).
This thread is for discussing the WWK spoiler and errors it may contain, such as typos, images, how to improve the software forum spoilers, etc. NOT to discuss errors that MWS throws at you for puting the patch into effect. Pichoro even says this in the second post of this thread, immediately below Memnarch's spoiler.
That being said, yes I have looked in the MWS thread, and there are some answers there. If you have tried those, then I see that your question is valid. I understand that a number of people have problems with MWS, but please realize that the people using this forum did NOT develop the program, and as stated in the MWS thread, it was never finished, and that is the reason for the numerous problems. Not everyone has the answers to these questions, as most of the time it just appears to be guess-and-check work to find the solution.
Anyways, please direct your attention to that thread now, because I will post my thoughts about your problems there, since this is not the thread to discuss it.
EDIT 2: Additionally, feel free to PM me with questions or comments regarding the MSE exported images I have put up, as well as how to install them, etc, if you do not want to use this thread to do so.
EDIT: Perhaps this is backseat moderating, but I have reported several things to no avail :(, and I would venture a guess that what I have posted is valid.
CXA, I've not responded to your reported posts because I don't think they need action. In particular, let's talk about the ones in this thread. I realize they are not pointing out errors in the spoilers - but they are asking about how to use them.
Please be nice, and please don't backseat mod. Do freel free to report posts to me, but if I don't take action, don't get offended. A reported post does not require my action, it merely is to draw my attention.
Everyone else needs to calm down too. And if you're going to swear, just bloody do it, because trying to evade the censor is against the rules and makes me want to do bad things to you.
Well, thanks for the civility of your replies, guys. I do appreciate that. I was fairly afraid I was going to get a backlash of forum elitism. Never had that happen to me personally, but I've seen it , and it gets ugly.
Anyway, the main reason why I posted my problems in this thread was because it was regarding implementing/installing this particular patch. The problem I'm having also turns up whenever I create cards, so I thought maybe someone could give me a one-shot as to why it happens. I will redirect my concerns to the help thread. Either that or I guess I'll just wait for the official masterbase update or whatever. Thanks again and sorry for taking up thread real-estate.

My reasoning for wanting to direct attention to the MWS help thread is this:
Lets say you have a question. According to all we have already, your question has not been answered/your problem has never come up or solved before. Next rumor season, this thread is going to be dead basically. After that happens, you'll have to search the entire forum for posts relating to the answer for that question. If your answer is posted in the MWS thread, you only have to search that thread. Additionally, at some later point, the first post can be updated with possible solutions/tested solutions for that question, making them easily accessible for future users.
I'm not trying to be an *word that doesn't get censored apparently...?* or something, but this clearly presents a better situation, so that next rumor season we don't get a bunch of people new to MTGS or using MWS asking the same questions in that rumor thread. As I posted previously, I'm not adverse to answering your question directly rather than pointing to a link, just using this thread for it.
One thing I noticed is that the card Aether Tradewinds in the spoiler needs to be changed to AEther Tradewinds (note the difference in capitalisation). I don't know why, but MWS won't like it otherwise if you save it in a deck and try to open it, MWS will be unable to find it. For anyone that's already added the set via this spoiler, just edit the record in MWS, save the master base and reload MWS.
Thanks again!
I might be able to run with the Æ symbol, but I've got class in 10 minutes, so I'll probably tackle that at home.

And yet, at the same time, if this question is every correctly answered (to my knowledge, it never has been), it could also go in Memnarch's information spoiler that he copies and pastes every season, "making [it] easily accessible for future users."

Yes, but then if a user looks for it in the MWS thread, they will not find it, and repeat the question there, wouldn't they? I was meaning more of a hypothetical situation for a question which had not been asked before.

So it can't be in two places? What I'm trying to say is next time, if you know the answer, just answer the question. Help them instead of agitating them. Let me worry about what belongs where and forum rules and such.
Any idea when we will get the Database file instead of the txt file? I like the db file because I can keep a backup in case something goes wrong like it always does with MWS.
Quest for Renewal is marked as a common when it is uncommon.
Quicksand is marked as an uncommon when it is common.
Only matters for sealed generation really.
MWS isn't generally used for drafting, as the Mythic Rarity was not taken into account (among other things). I'd suggest another method; Not sure what that would be, but if you draft with MWS, you'd actually not be getting an accurate card pool.

Yeah I'm aware of that, it's just for basic playtesting and deck building, nothing serious obviously.
Okay, slight trouble: I added this new set with great success, but when I tried to put it in a deck, it just shows it as the back of a card. Just for the WWK cards, by the way. Any takers?

Taken care of. I really need to review card-name changes.
I might be able to run with the Æ symbol, but I've got class in 10 minutes, so I'll probably tackle that at home.
Whoops. Again, I'll tackle that at home.
Thanks for the error-checks so far, guys.

Enjoy!!
Yeah I'm aware of that, it's just for basic playtesting and deck building, nothing serious obviously.
My point is that due to the introduction of Mythic Rarity, it will be impossible to "practice" with drafting using MWS =/.
EDIT: Makes me think though, MSE could probably help you with this...
No problem! I'll be expanding the coverage on some of this stuff as well as updating some of the things I got wrong with followup videos.
