I've used a Mac at home and a PC at work for the past ~5 years, and while I love a lot of things about OSX, the Windows GUI is vastly superior to that of OSX. It's not even close in my book.
Thirty seconds is extremely harsh. There should be enough time to return to your game after a computer crash.
If your opponent doesn't have an SSD, that's his fault.
Yeah, on the same note, I don't understand the people complaining about overheating when running Making Fun.
Get a new computer, guys.
I use a computer from 2014.
You can't translate Potion to be worth about $1.5 just because it costs $4 (between Silver and Gold).- it's way too cheap (2P is about 4.5, is this card really worse than a 5? Is it really worse than familiar?);
2P is way more than 5.Goons - it turns games into a boring slog.
Goons and Scrying Pool turn games into engines, not slogs. Duke is what's usually responsible for turning games into slogs.
3 Coppers yield the same $ as Gold.
No amount of Coppers can make a Potion, so you might as well value it at infinity.

But we've all played the Possession game where we both buy Possession and you play it first. Mine is in my hand, and you of course don't play my copy.
My MF rating has gone from 4000 to 3500 in just two days, mostly due to the game constantly freezing mid-load. It's infuriating. I don't know where I'd be on the rating, but I can't get past 4000 because of these constant freezes, and it's been this way for months now. I probably shouldn't be caring about my rating as much as I do, but it ticks me off. It's a Mac computer only issue.
I've had the same problems, but mostly because I've been playing awfully lately.
My windows client freezes quite often, but I've found that if I wait about 30'' it sometimes recovers, and usually my opponent is still there.
I suspect it might be related to my graphic driver/board.
I have to win close to 80% of my matches because of the freezing, and I've been losing 50/50 the last couple of days due to careless play, (and playing Iguana Iguana in randoms... He was a god) and the freezing has also been hitting far more often than normal.
It's probably a graphics issue on your part, since it loads eventually. For me, it will never finish loading. It's a Unity bug, at least that's what the devs at MF say. Nothing they can do about it.
AdamH, Awaclus, Eevee, Hydrad, iguanaiguana: This is your first tribal council, how are you guys feeling? Any concerns?
Everyone: How strong are the tribal connections? Are you guys voting along with your former tribe, or have those been cast off?
Everyone: How much is the fact that whoever you vote out tonight is going to be on the jury? How much is that factoring into your vote tonight?
Thinking on it further, I think it's the mundanity of the event rather than the lack of a verb that makes me decide against it as a plausible interpretation. I mean, "Oil Spill on BC Coast" would make sense as a headline to me. But "People Near Phone" doesn't, even if you qualify it with why the people or the phone might be somewhat interesting.
Correct, just realized that original version is ultimate first player advantage as first player will gain entire supply on turn 1 and win (restricting gains to copper/curse/estate also leads to turn 1 win).
Actually it results in a turn 1 loss... you would gain 10 Curses and 8 Estates (or 20 Curses and 12 Estates); you would lose.
You have 3 Estates in your starting deck a lot of the time.
A lot of the time, your opponent does too.

I thought the original sounded like someone deleted the drum and bass track
That makes sense for a picture caption, sure, but not a headline.
Aren't a lot of headlines just picture captions anyway?
Not from what I've read, but maybe it's a regional thing?

This was the most intuitive way to parse it to me:
Parents of (Boys Missing at Sea Battle) Over (iPhone Discovered on Boat)
I don't understand how this or the "sea battle" interpretations make much sense. Parsing it that way leaves the headline without a verb. What is the meaning you guys are reading into that?
Edit: Should have read scott's more carefully since they add punctuation, but they all seem far more awkward constructions than the very first one which ashersky also highlighted. I guess headlines are often awkward though. Then again, I don't think they tend to omit important commas.
If you don't draw any Land in your opening hand, you can call a mulligan.
I could have used this in a recent game, I opened 5/2 on a board with no 2s and only Mine for a 5. Of course, as luck would have it my opponent also opened 5/2.
In the meantime, stuff I've been doing:
Remix of Armenia's Eurovision song
mine had a potion-cost.
Not sure if card+event combos belong here, but Vault+Expedition seems at least decent. Played in the most boring way possible (Buy a Vault, then province on 8, expedition on anything between 3 and 7), I think it gets 4 provinces in around 12 or 13 turns. Probably it's not actually good because it never builds any sort of economy and might be easy for opponents to counter (especially with Vault's drawback), but in the absence of anything good on the board maybe it's useful?
This gets wrecked by any sort of handsize attack, but it seems to work in the absence of that sort of thing. 4 Provinces in 12 turns, but I did get a 5/2 open.
I dont get this card. I think I've only ever bought it in familiar slogs when I've hit $3P after curses ran out.
my latest productions have been quite well-received internationally and I have some experience in making music specifically for video games as well.
Links? I mean, I'm interested for myself, not for SCSN and Stef. But they might be interested too.
