    My only internet access at the moment is through the computer lab at the college I go to which remains open during the summer, and I can't really install stuff on these. Plus I don't think you can use MWS on macs, can you?

    Hey, I am too tired to fully explain this but it should be pretty self-explanatory:

    You can use VMWare if you have a windows CD. The server version of VMWare is free, and despite its name will work.

    Otherwise wine might work.

    EDIT: Is anyone going to be around on Saturday?

    ok so a week later I finally figured out how to make my main cardpool reappear so I can make a deck again.

    Am I the only one that finds this program terribly confusing at times? I was about to make a post saying "would love to play, can't figure out how to use this thing, giving up." But now I can atleast make a deck.

    I'm sure by the time I had an EDH setup we'll be switching formats though.

    Also one question, eight and a half tails doesn't have colourless mana, but can I use cards that have colourless casting costs? And can I include things like artifacts?

    Yes, you can include artifacts, and other cards with colourless casting costs.

    You can use any card that's the same colors of your general. You cannot use hybrid or split cards unless all the colors are your generals' colors. Also, every deck may contain artifacts.

    For example, if your general is Gaddock Teeg:

    Sakura-Tribe Elder - YES
    Armadillo Cloak - YES
    Scab-Clan Mauler - NO
    Umezawa's Jitte - YES

    Though bear in mind that an artifact that produces mana of specific color(s)/requires an activation cost of specific color(s) cannot be used unless those are the colors of your general.

    Basically look at your generals casting cost. Only mana symbols in that cost can be on a card in your deck. If your general costs 2UB then you cannot have a card in your deck that has a casting cost of 2B and has a ability that cost 1R. That's because there is a red mana symbol on the card. That's basically the gist of it, from what I understand. I may be off, but as far as I know, that's correct.

    Am I right?

    Ok changing my general, Oyobi, Who Split the Heavens.

    Not that it really matters since I have yet to play a game, but hey there's hope, I'm halfway through adding cards to my deck now.

    I'll be around monday evening if you're willing to tell me how to start the game with my general out, and put up with me fumbling around by clicking random buttons. I sort of got the hang of it the other day by playing against myself, but expect an easy win and lots of errors on my part.

    I see four fields: Username, Password, Confirm Password, e-mail, and a button at the bottom that says Register.

    I'm usually on-channel after about 7pm PST, but so far I haven't really seen anyone else around.

    That's because you sign on for 5 minutes, ask if anyones up for a game, and sign out.

    Sorry about that. I didn't get any response, so I assumed you had gone AFK.

    ooookay....

    So are we playing or what?

    I thought there was going to be a tournament style ladder posted. LIke who's supposed to fight who and then so on until there are only two guys fighting for the title. That way we can just bother each other to agree on a time and then record a win or a loss.

    No?

    I could run a tournament if there was enough interest. I would suggest:

    1) You have a week to arrange and play your match.
    2) The structure would be Swiss. I would pair the rounds manually, unless someone has access to DCI Reporter and wants to pair the rounds that way.
    3) Format: EDH.
    4) Matches would be reported through CmdPrompt's website, and then I would grab the results to figure out the pairings for the next round.

    Thoughts?

    Yeah, I apologize for not really running anything. I sort of hoped that people would play freeform matches with a ladder, but running tournaments over the week or somesuch is a good idea.

    I'd appreciate any other ideas you guys have, I'm on vacation for awhile, so I should have time to work on stuff.
