they stole my joke :P community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/758...(the new forum broke the deck list, it used to be longer) and no, the hand-generator doesn't work for me either. that would be fun

Did the sample hand generator work for anyone?
Yup, no real issue.
Opening hand is: Strength of the Tajuru (XGG), Painsmith (1B), Runed Servitor (2), Ruinous Minotaur (1RR), 2 Plains, and 1 Mountain.
Drew into a Forest. Next 2 Draws (Servitor) got me another Mountain and Forest.
Needless to say I swept that game.

Call me crazy... but I don't actually think this is a horrible idea! As on online format, of course. Like Momir, but not so random and pointless. Make this so!

I tried this deck. I think it needs tightening up a little. Seemed inconsistent.

Agreed. I'd definitely be up for a MTGO format that'll always contain all the cards in Standard. It's not like Momir doesn't take strategy, but I'd prefer something like this.

There wasn't a feedback link from this, but: I enjoyed the Deck Registration simulator. I spelled 4 cards correctly including Skithiryx, the Blight Dragon, but Skithiryx wasn't accepted (possibly because I broke it across two lines)? So I just made a dash and submitted for that, as well as for the last card. Final score: one game loss. My first, and only, loss for deck registration error  .

How did they come up with the basic land number anyways? 604 of each seems pretty arbitrary.

BURSTING WITH VIGOR!
Show
Trolljuju wiped the sweat from his brow as he continued his slow trudge up the snowy mountain. The wind was strong and fiercely cold, but he pressed against it. Juju knew Beast Engine was somewhere at the peak, waiting for him. But this was not a matter of confronting the forces of nature themselves; that had been accomplished long before, and was now too easy to maintain the manly man's interest. Today, Beast Engine was here waiting for a friend.
Trolljuju's mind drifted from his appointment to thoughts of Beast Engine's manliness. The only man in history to punch the fossilized remains of a dinosaur back to life just to punch it to death again. The man who deflected bullets with his pectoral muscles during his daily assassination attempts. The man who cured cancer with a serum made from pure crystalized virility. The man who burst with vigor. Not just a man but a Man- the manliest of all men. A god of masculinity in physical form.
Trolljuju's heart fluttered at the memory of him and lightened his steps as he pressed on.
Suddenly, he was shaken from his reverie by a deep, powerful rumble in the mountain that shook him to his core. Instinctively, he threw himself to the ground just before the slope ahead of him exploded in a fiery wall of light and heat. So great was the force that the entire upper section of the mountain was vaproized. It scorched Juju's coat, then rose on the air to drift far away, a plume of white-hot ash. When Trolljuju lifted his head to see what was left behind, he beheld a wide, perfectly flat stone plateau, and in the distance he could see a muscular figure, his foot still held up from the kick. There was no doubt it was Beast Engine.
As soon as the ground beneath him cooled, Juju cast his heavy pack aside and ran. As the figure grew with closeness, he could see Beast Engine was nude, as was expected. The snow that fell near him turned to a thin wall of steam, looking to Trolljuju's eyes like a barrier. Engine was too strong, too manly to occupy the same space as the ordinary universe. He lived in a world all his own. But fortunately for Juju, it was only an illusion. He ran at full speed into Engine, who caught him with both arms and effortlessly twirled with him, resting with Juju dipped low to the ground in Engine's arms.
"Beast Engine, my love," Trolljuju breathed, sturck with awe at Engine's masculine beauty despite the familiarity of his face. Engine just smiled, radiating from every inch of him with incredible strength, yet gentle warmth. "It's been so long, Juju. I've missed you." "Forgive me. I lost contact with you while you were boxing with Death to win back and consume the soul of Theodore Roosevelt. But now I'm here..." Juju lifted one tentative hand to Engine's face, but he pulled away. "You know I cannot give you what you seek. Were we to make love, your body would be destroyed by the force." "I know, of course I would," Juju responded, tears in his eyes. "May I have, at least, one kiss?" "Very well. For you, my friend." Slowly, gingerly, they came closer. But the moment their lips met, a flood of unbridled manliness rushed into Trolljuju, body and soul, and every cell in his body exploded.
Beast Engine fell to his knees, and in his grief, he wept. The tears that fell from his face burned deep into the rock beneath him. But slowly, his sorrow turned to conviction.
He beat the crap out of Death once. He could do it again.

The Deck Registration Simulator doesn't accept "Skittles"!!!
******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** From Mark Rosewater's Tumblr: the0uroboros asked: How in the same set can we have a hexproof, unsacrificable(not a word) creature AND a land that makes it uncounterable. How does this lead to interactive play? I believe I’m able to play my creature and you have to deal with it is much more interactive than you counter my creature. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** Post #777

Actually, it was a George Baxter Analysis with weighting based on a combination of limited pointing and card frequency in T8 decklists.
