    Since when do non-premium members have an accepted countries filter? We don't. Whatever's happening to that is only relevant to premium members.


    I have had the accepted countries filter since i signed up (non premium) a couple days ago. It seems like a big waste of time not to have it.

    I asked admin@pucatrade about why my haves list kept getting incorrectly imported. Here was their response:

    ... We're aware the importer isn't working as smoothly as we'd like. It's one of our top four priorities right now. As improvements go live for the importer, we'll update the community.

    In the meantime I'd try copying the text from the columns into the text importer. It's not currently supporting foil or language. The categories you'll need are quantity / name / set. ...


    I haven't had time to fool around with it yet, and to be honest, I don't think I will bother adding my haves line by line. Hope this helps[/quote]

    Thank you!! This tells me what I needed to stop wasting my time!

    Quick question:

    Did the guidelines for .csv layout change since the migration to Future Site? Since the migration, whenever I try to import my haves list, there are what feel like innumerable errors: item in wrong language, wrong edition, promo duplicates of items, etc. I am essentially unable to trade until this gets fixed / I figure out the new .csv guidelines. It's driving me mad: Here's an example of what I've been using:

    Count___Name____________Foil__Edition________________Condition________Language
    1_______Llanowar Elves__________Battle Royale Box Set____Near Mint_________English
    2_______Mogg Fanatic_____foil___Eternal Masters_________Slightly Played_____German

    Where am I messing up?


    I am trying to move a .csv I exported from MTGGoldfish over to Pucatrade. I have spent hours shifting fields, changing titles, etc... and I cannot get it to convert correctly, it literally says my formatting is bad. Sometimes it will import the cards but in the wrong sets or they'll be listed as promos etc...I also can't find a thread or good help via a standard google search or here. If anyone has any input or a link to this info I would be very grateful. Also, reading this thread makes me a bit hesitant to send out any more cards, I just started Pucatrade and I sent out about $50usd in cards, hopefully it works out.

    I was just sorting some draft tailings. Found this fierce invocation (common) with a rare stamp.

    So this set has a cycle of mythic dual land.


    No it doesn't. There's 2 RARE dual man-lands, and there's 5 RARE dual lands, but no mythic dual lands.


    I apologize the spoiler i looked at first had them as extended art mythic rares.

    It's years later and I'm still bitter over mythic rare. It's when i stopped playing constructed tournaments.

    Thank you for the correction.

    So this set has a cycle of mythic dual land.

    I remember this
    ( http://archive.wizards.com/Magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtgcom/daily/mr334 ) article in which MaRo told it's mythic rares wouldn't be staple or utility cards like dual lands.

    Between that cycle and the land lottery this set appears to be a complete money grab with sub standard set design.

    Personally i don't plan on buying any. I was rather taken aback at my brick n mortar when i saw someone order a case. But i didn't say anything, because i guess I'll need people to trade for some of the EDH stuff.

    Imo they need to make some powerful new stuff that's not mythic. Like dark confidant, which was such a fun card. And some spell cards that are good, like counterspell or flames of the bloodhand or Gerard's verdict.

    Thoughtsieze is below $10 right now! We all know it was a cash grab, and could have been an UC, but there are UC seeing play now that rival the cost of Thoughtsieze. So get them while they are low. They will always be good to have!

    If you want to rock the white border. The cheapest black border you can get is probably 8th edition foil for 20$+


    I prefer to just sharpie mine black, it's much cheaper! or get some nice paint and take the time to alt one for EDH.

    This is a disappointing reprint IMO, especially being from MM, as opposed to some stupid duel deck or whatever. I would prefer to draft cards that I actually want to play in modern, from Modern Masters. But I am used to expecting less and less from WOTC Slant

    I used some old cards and a load of clear packing tape to make a "Magic" tunic for an Anything But Clothes (ABC) party. It was most uncomfortable, and unfortunately I think there are photos floating around Facebook somewhere of me dressed in magic cards Slant

    I am not really into parties much anymore, but I figured if I was gonna do it, I would embrace the inner nerd Wink

    Also, I like to give a huge box to new players, it's great when they get so excited, and hopefully one day they get to do the same for another newb.

    They can also be thrown (ninja star style) at people who are annoying you.

    They have literally been used as kindling at my house.

    One of my friends likes to sneak them into my trade binder. He is good at it, and he always remembers to do it. Relentless 64574&l) :p

    Just what we needed an overcosted worse Bob. If this card was a 4/4 for 4 with Bob's exact effect it would be mythic worthy. As it is now giving your opponents cards is NEVER a good thing. This thing is a literal net 0 card advantage every time his effect triggers which is not something you want from something that's supposed to stick around a for a while. I'd rather run ANY Planeswalker instead of this piece of junk since they're mostly similarly costed and provide immediate and noticeable card advantage. And can't be blown up by most removal spells.


    I can't believe how Duskmantle Seer is getting mixed ratings! This card is GOOD. He provides card advantage (because you are in blue), has a big flying body, and potentially punishes opponent for running big finishers. Does anybody think that Jace Beleren is bad because he lets both players draw?

    If you don't believe me check Ebay, he is already going above $15usd. I just wish they would have costed him @ 1BBB instead, because than he wouldn't be splashed in esper variants and B/U control, and I just don't see the blue part of the card, Bob was a fine precedent for giving black this ability. I will build around it (if I can get any).

    Buy from your LGS.

    Or have they not earned your business?

    Really, I bet that your LGS will have a close to average price and you are supporting the place where you hangout and play.



    ^This!

    The cards were already shipped once, just pick 'em up during FNM. Support the people that support you at the same time you are reducing the carbon footprint to get your product.

    I hope whoever does get it likes them some colorful cards. Again, my son, he loves the colors. And the sparkles. I hope the sparkly paint doesn't cause too much of a mess.

    hints?

    Some things come in fives......
    Some come in pairs......
    And one to guide the sleigh in the night.

    Cheers! Can't wait to see who gets mine and who I get to get cards from!


    These are Great! Thank You very much! I will definitely be showing them off. The beast tracker is my fav, it looks great in person, the camera just doesn't capture the glitter paint. I sent out 2, but getting 13 (while not quite lucky) is a welcome exchange.

    This was my first time trying the gift exchange. Next year I will be spending some more time on this. I love the idea.

    I had some lighting issues but the pics came out alright for the most part. Thank you Slavan! and please tell your son I said Thank You to him too:)








    here are the rest, I couldn't attach them all.

    Also, Thanks again to Galspanic for making the time to organize and gift those great alts.
