The droprates should be independent of each other.
Chiming in to confirm this is the case. We could run 20 events on the site at the same time, and each currency would still have its own probabilities from appearing when you look at a new page on the site.
There's an issue where sometimes you're able to obtain an extra token per day. It won't really make a difference here so I'm not too worried about it being possible, but it is something I'd like to really catch in the act to understand why the site is being dumb about it.
Anyone that couldn't get their 10th and were stuck at 9 for the day, that's just bad luck I'm afraid
We get this feedback each expansion and I both agree and disagree.
Even without monetary incentives, people don't read the whole thread and some of the comments are... not great. Not everyone is great at reviewing cards though but their opinions still do matter.
As I've said in the past, if people are spamming the same thing on each thread, they'll have their comments wiped and cosmetics removed after the crawl ends so they have zero chance of obtaining them again. It will also disqualify them from the giveaway.
If you come across someone being dumb, my private messages are always open =)
I do think we have a better chance of getting new positive people hanging out on the site than ones that are overly negative. If everything goes to shit though, I'll certainly be one of the first to admit it and the likelihood of us doing it again the same way goes down. Growth is important though and I know everyone who's been a long-time member of Out of Cards would love some more people to talk games with, so doing stuff like this is 100% worth it.
The idea is everyone will be able to pick some stuff up while still entering the giveaway. I didn't want it to be overly restrictive, such as paying the cost of a giveaway entry for a title or header, but we did need to put some kind of price on it
I'm also disappointed, Caro, that we're seeing spell generation here, especially through a Neutral. The bright side though is we don't have any mana cheating so it has that going for it.
It will be very interesting to see how this looks once we've got a full view of the spells that will be available in Forged in the Barrens. For now, I'm just not interested.
Flavor is going to be top-notch though as seen in the card's actual flavor text:
If we hear anything today, it'll be in about 2 hours (Blizzard almost always drops info at 1 PM Eastern on weekdays). I wouldn't be surprised if we'll get a card reveal schedule.
Yeah, it kinda blows my mind tbh. Aside from a few, every card back seems to just get better. This surely is unsustainable and the card back market is going to crash at some point. The great card back design bubble!
Yeah, Twin Slice has been a massive pain in the ass all year and I'm glad to see it shelved. It sucks because its a really sweet idea and the thematics were incredible, but there is such a fine line between god and unplayable with that card it feels like.
You'll now find Core 2021's set guide is under Forged in the Barrens in Expansions.
Year of the Phoenix is still going to kick around for a bit under Expansions. Once we move on to Gryphon, Core 2021 will move to be under that category.
Cards dropdown moved to a mega menu to make it easier to use on desktop - it gets a bit longer on mobile now but it is categorized at least!
Arena menu is now the Modes menu. It's fairly empty right now but we'll add to it! Dedicated portals for BGs, Duels, and Mercs are coming.
Up to Flux if he wants to add new buttons for the text editor for either/both.
Yeah, this is a fun problem to figure out a good solution for. The editor is already packed full of nonsense!
We are likely to put in place a logic change so that the bbcode will prefer the core set over others so we ensure we have the correct card icons showing up. that will make it much easier for people to easily use bbcode with simple card names; That's a start.

You just hold them.
I have no idea what you're talking about >.>. Definitely didn't have to fix anything, nope, didn't make any mistakes. Never make mistake! <3

I can confirm this is possible, but I wouldn't rely upon it working.
If you win and you've already pre-ordered, you can give the code to a friend or redeem it yourself for another server.
Our events system was responsible for Halloween and Winter last year so it makes use of that =D
I'd love to say everything was built for this since that would be cool, but that isn't the case.
Confirming yes on both counts!

Appreciate the support!
You're right though, there was a problem with video ads and it looks like it happened shortly before BlizzCon =( Thank you for reporting this!
Something about how we don't release patch notes enough. Yup, that's what this line should be. Anyway, onto it!

I should have caught this when editing. I removed the mention of it to prevent any confusion.
Nav update is live.
Yeah, this is a fun problem to figure out a good solution for. The editor is already packed full of nonsense!

Rewards aren't up yet - we'll have those once the reveal season fully kicks off!
You can at least start tracking your progress here =)
Nav is getting a large refresh today - stay tuned!
