A couple of our recent outages/slowdowns are related to sites hammering Scryfall's API through rate limiting. Be a good steward of the free data endpoint and don't do this.

Insert 50 – 100 milliseconds of delay between the requests (i.e., 10 requests per second on average).

New Magic Numbers are live on YT and Spotify (give me follows, or whatever those are called, there to get the updates automatically.

We are diving into early data for Avatar and there is a lot to explore there: Best colors, strongest cards and what makes each color pair tick.

A holiday I can get behind! Remember, 5,000 total pre-orders is enough to get the first print Magic novel since 2019 onto the bestseller lists and re-establish the print fiction line with a bang.
It's Preorder Strixhaven: Omens of Chaos Tuesday! You know, the day of the week where we all make sure we preordered Strixhaven: Omens of Chaos! If we all do our part, we can confuse and confound the Random House Worlds imprint into greenlighting a sequel! www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/747400...

Answer to yesterday's #mtgtrivia question:

Urza's Saga's originally name was Urza's Odyssey. And yes, we were puzzled a few years later when the name that we were told we couldn't use was used for a different set.

#WotCStaff
Today’s #mtgtrivia question:

Before Urza’s Saga was Urza’s Saga it was Urza’s ________. It didn’t pass the legal search, so we changed it. What was ________ ? Hint: It would later be the name of a future set.

Jake Browne is a good writer.
I’ll miss reading his words.

Gotta take yourself first though. I respect that.
My final Mana Club for the foreseeable future is up.

I talk about looking for things in the Magic community I desperately needed to fix in myself.

Thank you to everyone who sat through the constant reinvention and need for validation. I'll see ya when I see ya. ❤️

Got there on the 4th and final try today. Didn't want to lose more than $100. Pool was not very good but I had low enough of a curve I could go under. Enough interaction to keep things out of the way and a descent draw engine.

please consider moving away from Uline
why wisconsin is so gerrymandered is partially because of those owners. You can look it up.

We have a tube maker in MN that does a good job. And while they do support both sides of the aisle, I feel this is a good alternative.

This is extremely important so please share widely and distribute if you care about 17Lands and data. Your 17L won’t work without the update.
We've just published an update to the Windows and Mac clients that fixes handling of some changes in MTGA's log format in last week's patch. We will require users to update before the TDM release on Tuesday. After the 17Lands update installs, we'd encourage restarting Arena.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.

Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.
