Here's a #scryfalltip for the civic-minded among you:
@scryfall.com really benefits from high-quality scans submitted by normal people, just like you! In fact, they maintain a list of cards for which such scans are still needed; just search for:

@maro254.bsky.social Howdy! Help with Richard Garfield, Ph.D. please! Thx!
1. Split cards - Can I cast any card as only one half of them? How about with rooms? What happens with those since they're permanents?
2. Adventures & Omens - Can I cast any card as the spell part? If so, is it exiled/tucked?

My CommanderCube's list of nonlegal cards (in constructed commander) has dropped to 140, meaning that only 15.25% of the cards that aren't mana-fixing lands are the funnest of the bunch ☹️ Where did I go wrong?

A good friend doesn't just support you in spaces you share, they advocate for you in rooms you're not in.
@reversalwizrd.bsky.social did that for me and Brad, and that's why we got to participate in the amazing streamer event today.

In order for it to be one of the best selling releases, it'd have to be print-to-demand. Otherwise, you'll just sell out and won't have the opportunity to sell beyond that. This current Secret Lair model is not working for *anybody*. Neither consumer nor company.

In preparation for the final season of My Hero Academia, I restarted the series from the beginning. Holy shit, how broken would Mirio have been had he inherited One for All instead of Midoriya. Lemillion? More like Letrillion.
