@sloosecannon I made a specialized Red/Green deck, my second constructed deck, around Journey Into Nyx, and I've occasionally updated it slightly, but I hold that it is a perfect deck:
Cheap red creatures, powerful green creatures, a few combat tricks, and lots of mana generation. The main bombs are Hero's Bane - like three of them. It's not something I'd take to a tournament, but it fulfills its goal flawlessly: if someone's first magic game involves them playing this deck, they will have fun.

Status: Got my integration test environment working. It combines a whole bunch of git projects, builds the mess of cross-compiled C code we've got, and runs the Python integration tests we've defined (which depend on having the C code built). I've got it all set up so that we can then launch it as part of a daily build against our test hardware.
Lots of the integration tests don't pass yet but they're the task of one of my colleagues to worry about. I was getting the code to run them to work.

Status: The offshore team has been doing things based on requirements, always to the letter with as much copy-paste as possible. This week, it seems that the requirements have not been the same as last week, but they've been cheerfully implementing them exactly as they're written.
Trying to tell them through the pull request comments that they need to look at what they're doing and identify if something like that is happening, and talk to Product about it. My team isn't allowed to work on that thing right now (other priorities), but I don't want it to be a huge mess when I get back.
Feynman wasn't talking about India when he saw this phenomenon, but it's just as true there. I believe it will have to improve in time, I just hope it's soon...

@Lorne-Kates triggered abilities are those that trigger automatically. They can sometimes trigger at the beginning of turn, especially if the text says "at the beginning of turn".
Thank you for explaining the minutiae of Magic timing effects in response to my post that demonstrates advanced knowledge of Magic timing effects. :/

You might be someone who is super-sensitive to bitter flavours. If so, you're going to be not very keen on beer whatever you do.

@RaceProUK I wish that they didn't detect your browser in order to determine whether or not to show the menu that's in. I was going to give them the benefit of the doubt (almost) when it didn't work on IE, because maybe they're using some cutting-edge browser features not compatible with anyone else (in essence, being horrible people), but it also doesn't show up on Sleipnir, which is Chrome inside.
Google is a terrible company.

@TimeBandit The entire menu that shows up when you click your avatar on Youtube is missing, Time--Bandit. It detects your browser, and then only allows it in Chrome. It's not a matter of it only rendering with a specific mode, it's literally them detecting your browser and giving you less options, and it even blocks it on browsers thare just shells around their own browser!

Status: IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY!
<!--​-added by bloody-contractor on 25-apr-2017 for uploadng the files greater than 4MB--> <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="8192" executionTimeout="86400" enableVersionHeader="false" />

@accalia You're right. It doesn't work.

@dcon said in The Official Status Thread:

indeed.
i realize now however i should have posted the diff not the end result....
the contractor changed executionTimeout, not maxRequestLength.
-
@accalia And it still isn't right for 4MB
-
@RaceProUK
I dunno... I think even a MilwaukeePC connection could upload 4MB within 1 day.
-
@RaceProUK said in The Official Status Thread:
@accalia And it still isn't right for 4MB
read the comment again...... it was supposed to allow uploads more than 4MB (it allowed 8MB before and still does)
:-P

Status: Well that was an unintended fail of the encryption for voice packets. Apparently the Bot was using the Encrypted portions of the packet-sending code. Which works on 1 of the connected clients, but not very often anyone else. And only sometimes.
Which is strange, because each client has their own key, and is apparently decrypting fine, but perhaps not because it's garbage coming out.
Which is weird, because the encryption is working fine for how we do authentication... :/

But you were talking about the number in the execution timeout, which isn't 4MB or 8MB

ni, i was talking about the soon to be hanburger state of the contractor's head. they thought upping execution timeout would allow for larger uploads, then proceeeded to test this with a 1KB text file upload.
