== Tutoring into play ==


Here's a good question for anyone, when a card puts the thing you find into play, do we still call it a tutor? I've never heard another name for it. If it is a tutor, we can make a second section for things like dragonstorm. Additionally, what about CIP and LP tutor effects on creatures, Shall we add those to the bottom or give them a seperate catagory. [[User:Uber mexico|Uber mexico]] 17:00, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Headings and subsets

Green Creature should be Level 3 heading - a subheading under Creature, which is a Level 2 heading. --GeoMike 14:31, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Dissagree, why isn't multicolored card a subset of card. Why isn't blue instant a level 3 of instant which is a level 2? Uber mexico 14:34, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Of for that matter, why aren't all of them level 3s of "any card"'s level 2? Uber mexico 14:35, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

We could make Blue Instant a subset of Instant. I didn't notice that until you just mentioned it. --GeoMike 15:14, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

The problem is, once you start making subsets like that, you get cluttered. Where would instant OR creature with flash be classifed. It should be 2 differant subsets. But then it's cluttered already so what do you do? I think it would be nice if we could sort them a little better. Just so they're grouped. But I don't think we should have a whole list of varying things and then have a whole 3 of them be subsets. Just because it exists inside another group does not automatically make it a subset. It may end up looking a lot less cluttered to make them ALL level 3s. Uber mexico 15:19, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

What do you think now? It's a lot less cluttered this way, AND they're grouped properly Uber mexico 15:22, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Good job sorting - looks better. --GeoMike 16:21, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Category

Should this also be categorized as "slang"? --GeoMike 17:10, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

I'd say so. It derives from the name of a card, but it's unintelligible to newbies.  :) I'd like to create articles on Grizzly Bears, Hill Giants, Scathe Zombies, etc. for the same reason. (See also Tim.) Merope 17:27, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Your right - Bear could talk about the species, then what abou the Slang term ~ Bear as the article is currently about? --GeoMike 19:02, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
No, Bears will be about species (all species are in plural), and Bear can be left as it is now. --MORT (T) 19:09, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
