  • posted a message on [[MTGO]] Festival Of Old Limited Sealed
    Come celebrate April Fools by participating in the Festival Of Old Limited Sealed events in the Scheduled Events Room.

    This is a 4 round swiss phantom sealed tournament, meaning you don't keep the cards you open! But they only cost 6 tix to enter and the prizes are 11xGTC boosters for 4-0 record and 6xGTC boosters to 3-1.

    But wait there's more! Each player opens 10 assorted boosters from different sets of MTG. Some have rumored them to be:
    apocalypse
    planar chaos
    ravnica
    invasion
    lorwyn
    fifth dawn
    onslaught
    odyssey
    legions
    saviors of kamigawa
    Events start at 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00 and 9:00 PM Pacific Time (UTC -7).

    You can find a list of files containing all chat history between you and other accounts. They are ordered (your username)_(their username).
    Quick way to look up credit you have at a specific bot.

    This is also where the client loads chat history if you have that option enabled under settings.

  • posted a message on Momir Vig deck construction
    Make sure that the avatar is in your main deck not the side board.
    And save the deck as a .dec file not a txt file because the are 2 versions of Momir Vig Avatar and when loading text decks the client might choose the version you don't have as the default.

  • posted a message on Regarding Four Horsemen
    Quote from Lordatog
    Another (locked) topic on this forum referenced a deck called Four Horsemen that killed by milling itself into Dread Return, Blasting Station, and Sharuum the Hegemon. My question is, how exactly does this win? If you had two Sharuums, then you could alternate them and kill with the Blasting Station, but the ability targets, so you can't have one recur itself over and over. Right? Or am I missing something else? A quick trawl through the legacy forums turned up nothing about the deck, since it was eviscerated by the rules and no longer really works.


    You start with mesmeric orb and basalt monolith. Every time you tap add 3 then untap for 3 you net 1 card milled to the yard. do this until you have three narcomoeba in play and Sharuum the Hegemon, blasting station and dread return in your yard.

    Sharuum the Hegemon has one job which is to return blasting station to play from your graveyard. You do that by flashback dread return using narcomoeba as the creatures. You then procede to continue milling yourself until you hit emrakul, the aeons torn which will reshuffle your grave to library. Then mill out a narcomoeba into play and sac it to blasting station as many times as needed.

  • posted a message on LFg stuff for BW tokens MTGO
    I don't know if you know what the classifieds are? If you don't you can read this post I wrote a while ago for someone else:
    http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/showthread.php?p=6431389#post6431389

    So I pulled these cards to buy form a chain bot on the classifieds and found the exact total to be around 25-26 tix if you are paying market price for everything. Most of the cost is coming from isolated chapel (market price 2.50 - 2.75, bot price 3+ each) and the vault of the archangel(1.25 each) though which you can easily get a better price for from players or decide to stay out of black as a mono white token deck. The point I am trying to make is that most of these cards cost nickels and dimes and buying from players will not save your "change". But choosing a bot chain will save you your credit for future purchases.

    I am assuming you are new to MTGO so let me point you to some resources you can use.

    http://supernovabots.com/
    In this link under regular rares you can browse the buy/sell price for almost any rare. Its for a chain of bots called supernova that try to actively fluctuate prices with supply and demand. It also lists the names of the bots on the right hand side to show you where and how many you can buy them at the sell price.

    http://www.mtgotraders.com/
    http://marlonmtgo.com/prices.html
    For your uncommon and common needs I would advise a stable reputable bot chain that is well stocked with well priced cards. I simply prefer to use marlonmtgo's search engine if I need to check a price because they are both very competitive. Other honorable mentions would be Cardnexus or MTGOBazaar.

    If I was lazy and in a hurry I would buy that list at a chain for the 26 tix. If I had time and looking for a deal I would post an add on the classifieds to buy 4 isolated chapel 11 and 3 vault of the archangel 3. Buy the rares from supernova. Then check for any credit I am floating to buy the rest of the commons and uncommons. I would save around 2 tix in the end.

  • posted a message on 4/1 Cannot Connect to Server
    I am wondering if this has to do with the beta phishing scam email blast that happened this morning. If this is somehow limited to only beta testers.

    Now I'm really worried about my account security. Is anyone currently logged into mtgo on any account?

  • posted a message on 4/1 Cannot Connect to Server
    No its not something on our end. I was deck building on the server until I got kicked off a few minutes after 2:45 PM PST.

    The problem is the mtgo server indicator says its online so they might not even be aware of the problem.

    It could also be a server overload due to the MTGO Cube coming soon and people wanting to signup for it.

    Anyone else getting this problem?
    I am getting the error code for when new accounts aren't activated which makes searching the forums hell.

    4/2 --Wizards has locked all accounts linked to compromised email addresses and sent out an email advising us to change our email passwords. Still no word on when the accounts will be unlocked.

    Please lock.

    Congregation At Dawn

    I think its the most powerful tutor in Modern and severely underused. I first came across it on MTGO in the tourney practice room while trying 12post. My opponent was using it as a late game saving grace in his naya aggro deck. He grabbed Enlisted Wurm Bloodbraid Elf Meddling Mage off of an EOT search.

    What do you think would be the most busted way to abuse this card?

  • posted a message on [ISD] DailyMTG Previews 9/2: Garruk Relentless, Visual Spoiler update
    The question now becomes can you play him turn 4 with a 1/1 out blast it, transform garruk. Then its a new planeswalker so you can use his transformed abilities same turn right?

  • posted a message on cascade boom bust
    How come when you cascade say violent outburst into Boom/Bust you can cast bust even though it costs more than 3?

    Is this an mtgo bug?

  • posted a message on Laptop monitor removal/disconnect
    The two plastic pieces around the screen are broken and the LCD doesn't come up (comes up blank except at some angles) So what I want to do is separate the keyboard half from the screen and use and external monitor.

  • posted a message on Laptop monitor removal/disconnect
    So long story short the plastic bezel around my 17 inch hp g70 laptop broke and now that I have an external monitor I want to disconnect the screen and keyboard.

    Basically I can see 2 single wires on the right and left. Then 2 groups of wires that connect to the camera and screen the feed into the board on the left under the hinge (broken btw).

    I don't want to just cut these cables but I don't want to destroy the whole thing If I need to open it.
