Wonderful job as always.
Just one thing I would like to point out: Fiery Bombardment's image is too much bright in comparison to other red cards in Eventide and other sets. Is it really that way?

I've finally had time to complete my analysis of the Full sets based on fritti's Excel file and all I can say is that it isn't looking too good thus far.
I've gone through and itemized all the filenames of the different sets, whether they are from the 10E torrent, the Lorwyn Update Torrent, MediaFire or RapidShare. I then compared MD5s of the files. Those in green match.
Two sets raised a little alarm bell in my head. These are MED and TK because the 10E torrent and MF files are identical whereas the Lorwyn Update Torrent file is different. This begs the question as to which file is the latest. All the other sets looked ok in that the MediaFire sets should hopefully be the latest versions (this assumption is based on the MF file upload date).
Other sets that raised alarm bells were the CS set as previously mentioned by fritti in that there are two available files MWSHQ_CS_Fulls.zip and MWSHQ CS Fulls 050208.zip. Another set to suffer from this problem is the Starter 2000 with two zips in the 10E torrent: S2K.zip and ST2K.zip but in this case one can assume the MF version is more up-to-date.
Those marked in yellow have inconsistent folder namings when it comes to the CCGHQ Abbreviations.
The whole exercise has proven that too much has changed from the torrents for the torrent to still be viable. A better solution would be to update all the latest files (whether they are the MF ones or earlier ones) with the current file naming convention and a date stamp with a date in August and then create a new torrent from that.
I'm taking any and all constructive feedback regarding the above. Now I need to go and organise the boxes of yummy cards that I received the other day.

Coldsnap will be redone very very soon (somewhere next week), so don't sweat.

Props to the CCGHQ team!

I like being bad... it makes me happy...

halfheart, until I upload it, Salvat HQ is only in the Not-English torrent.
A few answers for Nyth:
A few answers for Nyth:
The update torrent is probably newer. Sounds like I didn't update MediaFire.Two sets raised a little alarm bell in my head. These are MED and TK because the 10E torrent and MF files are identical whereas the Lorwyn Update Torrent file is different.
The one with the date should be newer.Other sets that raised alarm bells were the CS set as previously mentioned by fritti in that there are two available files MWSHQ_CS_Fulls.zip and MWSHQ CS Fulls 050208.zip.
ST2K should be deleted, the set code changed and I missed it. I think the MF version is the latest.Another set to suffer from this problem is the Starter 2000 with two zips in the 10E torrent: S2K.zip and ST2K.zip but in this case one can assume the MF version is more up-to-date.

It looks the same as the other EVE reds to me. Has anyone else noticed this?Lynolf wrote:Fiery Bombardment's image is too much bright in comparison to other red cards in Eventide and other sets. Is it really that way?

Thx for reply Huggybaby.
About Fiery Bombardment's... I don't see any difference with the others red cards on EVE.
Btw Mirrodin link on the LINKS LIST don't work, you should replace it with this one:

Oh well maybe its just me. My apologies then.
Btw can you tell which sets will be redone? I know Coldsnap is coming near, but is there any others you are thinking about?
Edited: Something I just noticed, not sure if its really that important, but the card Deglamer has a tiny black spot under the word "or".

Thanks for the new stuff guys!
Is there any particular reason WL Fulls aren't in the Medifire folder? Took me forever to find them ^_^
