When I hit the button that normally makes MWS connect to servers it gives me a box similar to the one for solo play, and then says all my decks are in the wrong format when I try to load a deck. Anyone know whats up?

The only safe lotus variant: White Lotus0

Sacrifice White Lotus, Q: Add three mana of any one color to your mana pool. Answering a simple puzzle to unleash legendary power
I was wondering if anyone would be willing to play a few games with a noobie player on MWS? I played VS. online for about 3 years and think I understand the basics of Magic but have never actually played a game. I don't think I will be too much trouble and plan on becoming a pretty active player once I get the hang of the basics. I would appreciate it greatly, thanks a lot.
I've got a custom set that i'm building and i'm hoping to figure out how to upload my personally built cards Via MSE, into MWS... Any help please?

It's easy really, go to File in MSE, click export ->Workstation, then you will have the set in text form, open Workstation, click the add/remove/analyze set option, Add your set and save, the next time you open workstation it should be there.
thanks for the help Post, I'm disappointed it wont upload the Arts nor handle my custom Rules, nor does it recognise Hybrid mana. (likely because i didn't buy it, nor want to) So.. Uninstalled... Sorry to MWS creators.. But i want something that's "Worth" that option. MSE is godly and i can do everything with it. so Thx Pichi.

It doesn't handle your custom rules? Strange, all my keyword's reminder texts appear in the cards I transfered for MSE to Workstation (they appear during play only though)

You're welcome, but the problems you mentioned are likely with MSE. The hybrid mana especially is known to be our mistake. No, I can't fix it and don't know when it will be fixed.
It is my understanding that all you lose by buying MWS are the advertisements.
It's been a while and still no answer: does anyone know why my Inventory files keep crashing after just a few hundred cards being added and how I can stop it? I really don't want to have to resort to a spreadsheet like Excel to monitor my collection.

If I make a templating or grammar error, let me know.
The franchise MtG most resembles is Battlestar Galactica. Why? Its players exist in, at most, a dozen different models at any given point in time, with perhaps up to 3% variation, 5% if you're lucky.
Would some user who has MWS installed consider doing me (and lots of MSE users) a favor, and taking a nice large screenshot of the MWS icon on their desktop against a solid white wallpaper? I would appreciate it very much, and its for a good cause. Thanks!
Can someone list all of the hotkeys? I know most of them, but the one I can't figure out is how to stack damage on creatures. Basically, I see opponents sometimes putting tiny red numbers on creatures to count the damage already done to it that turn. What is the keyboard command for this?

You want to [ctrl]+click the cards to increase the numbers, [ctrl]+rightclick to decrease.
I had a quick problem with it I can't figure out. So I downloaded the patch, added it to the base of cards, and changed my deck around to what I want to test. I then tried to go to the server to play a game, and it said "deck invalid", or something like that (not really sure exactly what it said). I try it a few times, and then decide to restart mws. When I open it up again, it says "following cards not found" and the entire M10 set is no longer in the library...

I have most of the full card art in MWS. If I were to run MWS Picture Assistant, would it scan for missing art and only add the missing artwork or would it attempt to overwrite the existing card artwork?
When I ran it, it looked like it was trying to overwrite, but maybe it wasn't...I'm unsure.
Why does my mws only load up to morningtide. It's really weird, I downloaded the one off of the site, that didnt work. So I had my friend send me his masterbase, still only loads up to morningtide. Did this 3 or four different times
getting the new base form different places, still only loads up to morningtide.
I also replaced the old masterbase with the new one each time. Anyone got an answer?

Problem... Every card I double click on a card in my base says "cannot be found on disk." I think I may have done something wrong. This happens on every single card including the things I clicked before the M10 update. Apparently, all my old decks work still on the game. If I try to add a card from M10, it keeps giving me the "invalid file format" error.
Sorry if this has been answered before. I looked around and couldn't find one.

Am I the only one who enjoys beating someone with Mindslaver? And by "beat" I mean animating Mindslaver and whacking the opponent with him?
I have a few questions for anyone who is familiar with it. First, how difficult is it to get MWS to work on Windows Vista? Second, is anyone familiar with Windows Seven? And if so, is it anymore difficult to get MWS to work on Windows 7 than it is to get it working on Windows Vista or XP?

Does anyone know why, when I add the text spoiler to the list of sets, it won't let me analyze the set or generate a sealed deck out of boosters from M10?
Every guide i have seen has broken links, lacks explanation or instructions, or ends with 10ED, Lorwyn, or some earlier set.
I found a perfect guide that includes exactly what i need, but the download including ALL the stuff you need... is a broken link.
i am just fed up with trying to piece together install guides, forum posts, etc etc
any help is appreciated. thanks.
