Due to a recent influx of spambotting, I have reset the security settings for the forum. This will certainly get rid of our robot infestation, but harmful side affects may include:

You not being able to post.

I do not forsee this as being a problem, but if you are having trouble please contact a mod, or MM himself. My email address, minus the obviouspart is:

As we're on passwords, I noticed strange thing.
My password is **...***#, where * - some letters and # - a number.

I noticed that when I log in to my Edit Profile, I can login successfuly with AND without that number at the end of my password.

By SPC Hood (Mr_Dooples) on Monday, February 26, 2007 - 10:59 pm:

I dont know about you folks, but i have definatly learned about alot of useful information that my very well better me as a person from clicking on those links the spam bots are so generously dropping at our door steps. And that Informaion is that if I see another god damn pop up I will kill something. I carry loaded weapons.

It's an invasion... A dark wicked invasion!
(I have nothing to do with it!) So, where were we? I have finnished my manacurves and is waiting for an opportunity to transfer them to you. I get and deal wicked beatings in the salwiki! I havent touched the "Badluck on summercamp" project for a while. There are no koala's in sigth, and thats what's worrying me. When they are visible you know they are there, plotting and sceeming, but when they are gone, they are up to no good...

By SPC Hood (Mr_Dooples) on Wednesday, February 28, 2007 - 10:39 am:

It's an invasion? Where the hell is Urza when you really need him damnit?

And as for the Koalas, I believe psycho's ponies are standing guard. Hasnt been a koala yet get past a trained koala killing pony. (not to my knowledge anyways, but im prolly wrong. be afraid, be very afraid.)

By a1withnoname (A1withnoname) on Thursday, March 01, 2007 - 03:57 pm:

Wow, this place has gone downhill since I was last here...

Good luck with the spambot problem. I can sympathize, my own forum is having kind of an influx.

And yes, do whatever is necessary to protect the 6th! Even if you have to destroy it to do so! Urza battle strategies aren't always inherently flawwed!

By MORT (Ashtok) on Thursday, March 01, 2007 - 05:21 pm:

Wicked, I have to say that it was ... very creative :D

By Wicked Darkman (Wickeddarkman) on Friday, March 02, 2007 - 07:12 am:

MORT: Thanx.
JESTERGOBLIN: Thanx.

EVERYBODY:
OK!, I feel mentally mature to take my evolution projects into the next stage. After all I have had victories enough myself to prove that manacurves raise game performance.

This time I will settle my beady litte eyes on the Pre-Release (No! beady little eyes does not make me into a Koala. I took the Pony-test, remember?) since I have been beaten so thoroughly there. It will also at the same time be my first attempt to include colors into the projects.
-------------------------------------------------
Project pandora's boosterpacks:
(Needs a better project name).

I have assumed the following about opening a starterpack and three boosters.

There will be a minimum of 4 cards with a cc of 1 colored mana in each color.

There will be a minimum of 4 cards with a cc of 1+1 colored mana in each color.

There will be a minimum of 4 cards with a cc of 2+1 colored mana in each color.

There will be a minimum of 2 cards with a cc of 3+1 colored mana in each color.

This was based on the starterpack and the three boosters I got at the release tourney. I cut the minimum down with 1 card in each spell.

There will be no double or multi costs because their ammounts were to erratic.

I want to be 75% sure that a manacurve can be applied to any pre-release attended...

I will use a maximum of 3 colors, though the simulation will be able to evolve down to 1 if it can be succesfully done by evolution. If anyone of you feels that 4 or 5 colors will be feasible try to convince me, though that will take even more programming and time than ever before.

Those interrested in statistics have claimed that the mana will split into even ammounts to support a "naturally" balanced deck.

I seriously doubt them. I expect to see odd ammounts of mana and spells that will mix in a way that will allow you to play 1cc's of one color early and bigger cc's of another color later.

I expect decks able to kill at turn 6 at the least.

The decission-processes of the simulation will work on importance. I have given the colors a different importancy rate because at the time you open your packs you may often decide which color you like the most, then you splash with the second color to support the first, and if things are really crappy you try to cram the third color in, being the "emergency-color"

I would love to hear creative comments on this one, the more the better.

By MORT (Ashtok) on Friday, March 02, 2007 - 10:34 am:

It's in horrible state...

*Laughs*

Sorry, my medicing skills are of no use in phyrexia.

By Homelands Bookie (Psycho) on Saturday, March 03, 2007 - 10:31 am:

My chemistry skills are, however!
Just mix a saturated solution of calciumnitrate with a saturated solution of sodiumsulfate, place the solid formed on your broken foot, and dry it. And with dry it I don't mean heat it above 150 degrees Celsius.

By SPC Hood (Mr_Dooples) on Saturday, March 03, 2007 - 10:49 am:

What happens if you heat it over 150 degrees? Does it blow up? That would be neat. Wait, how how is 150 degrees Celsius?

By Elaforge (Elaforge) on Saturday, March 03, 2007 - 11:25 am:

300 something farenheight i think...

By Elaforge (Elaforge) on Saturday, March 03, 2007 - 11:27 am:

302 actually

By Human Commander (Humancommander) on Saturday, March 03, 2007 - 10:43 pm:

Wait a sec, won't that make his broken foot a broken foot with a cement-like mixture solidifying on it?

By SPC Hood (Mr_Dooples) on Saturday, March 03, 2007 - 11:01 pm:

like a super cast? hells yeah, go Hulk and kick stuff!

By Human Commander (Humancommander) on Sunday, March 04, 2007 - 09:14 am:

But how can he take it off then?

By Elaforge (Elaforge) on Sunday, March 04, 2007 - 01:08 pm:

What decent phyrexian would take off a body augmentation?

By MORT (Ashtok) on Sunday, March 04, 2007 - 01:23 pm:

That's the spirit!

By Lord Priest (Xdritex) on Sunday, March 04, 2007 - 02:21 pm:

if they're replacing the augmentation with a superior one, any normal Phyrexian would.

By ApocalypsePrime (Jestergoblin) on Monday, March 05, 2007 - 12:51 am:

Takes an eye from Elaforge.

Staples the eye onto Xdritex's hand.

eh, sucks to be you.

By Homelands Bookie (Psycho) on Monday, March 05, 2007 - 09:52 am:

I wasn't talking about concrete! I was talking about the hard, white stuff you put a broken bodypart in to disable movement of said bodypart to let the bone heal.

By The Almighty (Mr_Dooples) on Monday, March 05, 2007 - 12:55 pm:

you talking about Plaster and cast molding? Umm, you don't need heat to make those things solidify.. You actually couldnt use heat on it since it would burn the patient too. We just wrap them and keep wraping them until its a hard cast.

(then you go hulk and smash things)

By Lord Priest (Xdritex) on Monday, March 05, 2007 - 06:14 pm:

I don't think he was saying that it had to have heat applied, just that heat over such temps. would be very damaging to the item.

By The Almighty (Mr_Dooples) on Monday, March 05, 2007 - 11:28 pm:

I see now where he said "dry it".. crisis diverted.. (Doops smash crisis!)

By Homelands Bookie (Psycho) on Tuesday, March 06, 2007 - 05:24 am:

Since you just took the plaster out of the water, I thought it needed some drying :P

By Human Commander (Humancommander) on Tuesday, March 06, 2007 - 11:24 am:

Like you could could dry it? But back to the main topic. Did anyone get back into the Sixth Sphere and fix it?

By The Almighty (Mr_Dooples) on Tuesday, March 06, 2007 - 11:48 am:

I assuming so, since I've yet to see a spambot (knocks on wood) in a couple days.

a example by kicking this atog that is biting my butt. *Kicks atog*

By Homelands Bookie (Psycho) on Sunday, March 18, 2007 - 11:30 am:

Ofcourse, I meant Casino Royale, and Masters of the Universe.

By Homelands Bookie (Psycho) on Monday, March 19, 2007 - 05:41 am:

True, but Kingdom of Heaven doesn't really fit in with Masters of the Universe, Casino Royale, Flash Gordon, and Return of the Killer Tomatoes.
