I think you should give serious consideration to the possibility that if 7 different people (multiple of whom are experienced users here) agree with each other and disagree with you, maybe they have a better point than you do.

I have a deck of (52) cards where the cards have no suits and besides unique artwork on each of them they are differentiated by numbers from 1 to 52 (backside is unique as well, but let's ignore that and assume standard back).

What games can be played with this deck? I am looking for ones that use all the cards (as opposed to a subset). Please include links/references to the rules.

I have found a list of games that can be played with numbered cards on BGG, but most either require more cards (including ones numbered above 52) or would not use the whole deck.

We've been recording these on Scryfall for a while and I just went to file several reports that I hadn't yet and the reports went straight to Solved immediately & automatically. Gatherer's not just not being maintained, they're not even accepting reports about it anymore.

> When attacking or blocking with a stack of tokens, you can click on the stack indicator ("x4") to issue attack or block commands to the entire stack.
When declaring a stack of tokens as blockers against a stack of attackers, clicking on the top creature in the attacking stack declares all of the blockers on that creature, and clicking on the stack indicator of the attacking stack will declare the blockers 1:1 with the attackers.

People don't tend to read the rules because they already know how to play the game. How many people have learned to play Monopoly over the years by being taught by family but never reading the rules themselves.

Plus, in real life in some cases these situations would just clarify themselves: "Is that a Deathmist Raptor?" "I don't have to tell you that" "I mean, is it the Deathmist Raptor you put onto the battlefield from the graveyard two turns ago?"

A: Can the Autocard feature be improved (again)?

The Autocard feature has been updated to use the new url format, and to improve on our encoding of card names so as to fix many (hopefully all) of issues with the old one. Here are some of my test cases: Lightning Bolt Death's Shadow Island Who // What // When // Where // Why B.F.M. (Big Furry M...
