RE: Account on MTGS Forums

Hi Unistardust,

Could I get the screen name for your account on MTGS, the forum. We're trying to arrange such that you duly have access to the behind-the-scenes planning forum? Thanks in advance. --Magic Mage (talk) 01:56, 1 September 2012 (EDT)

Hi! Unistardust, same as here! XD Actually I am not very active recently, but still...thanks for the sysopship XD --Unistardust (talk) 05:02, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
You mean this Unistardust? :s
As for the sysopship, aw, heck... we thought you'd make a fitting one. :) --Magic Mage (talk) 05:13, 1 September 2012 (EDT)

"There is a total of n cards that involve xxx, which divide by color as such: "
???
What about "There is a total of n cards that feature or involve xxx. The breakdown, by color, is as follows:"?
Which divide by isn't particularly good grammar and it's an awkward construction. Kraken Chowder 101 (talk) 09:44, 13 October 2012 (EDT)
Actually...I am just using the existing template of color percentage from someone else XD
...and honestly, I am not a native speaker of English, so I can't judge the grammmar or wording properly...anyway...thx for the advice :) --Unistardust (talk) 11:52, 13 October 2012 (EDT)
... oh dear! (I'm joking. (I think!))
USD, "grammar"; but, it's not just grammar. --Magic Mage (talk!) 11:41, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

Merge miscellaneous effect/mechanics articles?

I think we should do that rather than create an article for everything.

There's an argument that we should have a gazillion articles so that pages don't become long but I think that's a fallacious and poor argument as articles don't become long and, even if they were to become long, we'd reasonably break them up as appropriate (e.g., into individual pages and chuck a {{Main}}, into A—L and M—Z listings, whatever).

I'd be interested in hearing your ideas as well. --Magic Mage (talk!) 11:40, 15 October 2012 (EDT)
