Card Contributions

I did Mana Severance. I don't remember that posts saying it couldn't be done, so it's easier for me to just write it up than try to find it.

First! Yeah, I know I said I wanted the Apes of Rath, but this one just jumped out at me as a *really* easy hack job: Maze of Ith + a "tap-for-1" land + Dauthi Cutthroat to see the syntax for "creature with Shadow" + Femeref Archers to see the syntax for "Attacking creature with...". I'll do the Apes next, and stick to Tempest for the time being. If I get a few done (let's say 4 or more), I'll zip 'em up.

Caveat: it prints the abilities in the opposite order from the card, both in the Choose window and in the right-hand text pane. Reversing them in the card script made no difference. I don't know whether that can be fixed, but it's no big deal anyway.

I did Mana Severance. I don't remember that posts saying it couldn't be done, so it's easier for me to just write it up than try to find it.

I was extrapolating a bit, I guess - in this post (http://www.slightlymagic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=2091&p=39339&hilit=Mana+Severance#p39339) someone requested it, suggesting that it could use the same principles as Cranial Extraction and Rootwater Thief. When I looked at those ones over the last couple of days to see if I could hack it up, I found out they both use hardcoding (at least in the Beta - I didn't check SVN).

So can I do Selective Memory?

Heh lots of things requested in August weren't done because the system we have now wasn't even built. If it takes you longer than 5 seconds to do Selective Memory than you are fired.

EDIT - Next I'm going to try the Tempest dual lands that don't untap during your next untap step, since I've got that KW on the brain now. I see there's also a functional reprint cycle in Champions of Kamigawa that we don't have yet - I'll do those up too. 10 cards for remarkably little effort.

FYI, Sol - Mana Severance and Selective Memory both make the 1-28 beta puke. Hopefully something has been changed / updated to let them work in the SVN. The error starts with:

I can't really worry about what doesn't work in previous versions. Most likely it wasn't using calculateAmount() for the changeNum in that version of the code. I did test it locally in the latest SVN and it was working, so it shouldn't be a program for trunk builds.
