The net decks feature is cool, however it stopped working for me and now shows "0 decks extracted". They're all on my hard drive from yesterday but I cannot access them today via selecting net decks.

Do you get any weird errors logged in Forge.log in your local AppData directory that might indicate what's happening? Doe it work if you delete the decks off your hard drive by chance?

I hadn't got an error the previous time but I've just got the following error when selecting Net Decks > Breaking Through

Edit: It's happening on most of the categories now. Some still show "0 decks extracted"

Endless Whispers seem to be the part of the same problem with many cards' 'when dies/returned to hand' abilities triggering twice or not at all. Though in this particular case second resolution of the trigger does nothing.

Summoner's Egg still remembers imprinted card after being bounced back to hand, so it can be used to put several creatures in play.

So as I was afraid of, it appears that everytime gos updates the zip with new decks, its url changes, so the net decks logic can no longer find it. That's why it fails to find any decks.

I guess I need to find a way for gos to publish to a static place where the url won't change. In the meantime, you can manually update net_decks.txt and net_decks_commander.txt to point to the new zip location. I've attached updated versions of those files to overwrite those files with. They'll be included with the next snapshot build.

That said, this is a temporary bandaid as they'll break again whenever gos makes updates, so i'm going to message him about hosting his zip files in a location that won't change.

When I have Hive Mind in play and I play a Pact of Negation / Summoner's Pact / Slaughter Pact and my opponent does not have the mana to pay for it during their upkeep even though Hive Mind copies the spell my opponent does not lose the game during their upkeep, they simply avoid payment all together and proceed with their turn.

Playing against the Splice Girls deck, my Swords to Plowshares did not hit every Golem on the field even though Precursor Golem was out. The ability went onto the stack, but did nothing. Tried making the deck myself, and as it turns out, any spell from me did nothing, but any spell from my opponent worked properly.

Glad you've figured it out at least! Thanks for the links, all downloading decks now

Delve doesn't work right when I cast an opponent's Murderous Cut off of a Nightveil Specter. So far as I can tell, it seems that the opponent is being given the option to delve, instead of me, and the AI always takes it -- I get to cast the Cut for a single black mana, and it exiles a bunch of cards.

Rift Bolt (ie, suspend) is not working.

Should be OK for next snapshot, thanks for reporting.

NOTE TO SELF, TODO:Only exile cards selected for Delve on complete cost payment and unexile them on cancel.

I noticed what may be a slight bug with Magmasaur. If it is granted lifelink, Magmasaur's sacrifice ability *should* pull in life points according to the damage dealt, but it does not do that at this time.

[Bionisam]

A bug from FRF: I can cast Write into Being (sorcery) as an instant on my opponent's turn.

Even though it should only trigger once when you are damaged by one or more attacking creatures, Vengeful Pharaoh 's ability triggers once per attacking creature, making it much more powerful than it should be

9/22/2011 If multiple creatures deal combat damage to you simultaneously, Vengeful Pharaoh will only trigger once.
9/22/2011 If multiple creatures deal combat damage to you and to a planeswalker you control simultaneously, Vengeful Pharaoh will trigger twice. The first trigger will cause Vengeful Pharaoh to be put on top of your library. The second trigger will then do nothing, as Vengeful Pharaoh is no longer in your graveyard when it tries to resolve. Note that the second trigger will do nothing even if Vengeful Pharaoh is put back into your graveyard before it tries to resolve, as it's a different Vengeful Pharaoh than the one that was there before.

With Humility in play, players must a sacrifice creature when Fleshbag Marauder is played.
Serendib Efreet loses flying, but still deals 1 damage during upkeep.
Ophidian still let's you draw a card
Looks like Humility only makes creatures 1/1 and takes away 'base' abilities like flying and first strike, but not other abilities.


With Nomads en-Kor and Daru Spiritualist in play keep targeting daru with the Nomads to give it +0/+2 and pump up the defense to whatever you want. Then play About Face on Daru Spiritualist, but the power and thoughness are not switched. Using the nomad/daru combo again after that resets Daru Spiritualist to 1/1.

When I activate Polukranos, World Eater for X = 3, the prompt tells me that I can target 7 creatures.

Guys, Sen Triplets ' ability to play opponent's card somehow stop working properly after 1.5.30 I just double checked and it's still working fine on .30 Maybe something wrong with the zone?
