Anyway we can get MtG symbols?

Yeah, mana symbols would be great, specially the new hybrid ones. And tap/untap symbols, as well. So, Kralik, anyway you can get those with Conor?

All over it. Check again now, guys. ;D And indirectly, NB, you can thank yourself, since I just pulled them from your CC backup forum.

Untap symbol, a possibility? I know it's not gonna be as easy, since CC didn't have them, they just showed up in the new set, but it'd still be nice to be able to use it.

...I thought the untap one already WAS up? I think the last two currently on the list are tap and untap, aren't they?

Code: [Select]
[MtGUntap]  [MtGTap]  [MtGGreen] [MtGRed] [MtGBlue] [MtGBlack] [MtGWhite] [MtGSymbol]
It'd be great to get it back to how it was on CC,

Code: [Select]
[T], [W], [U], [B], [R], [G].
Takes too long when typing up a bunch of stuff.

Oh, and BTW, the "MtG Symbol" is the Snow Mana symbol. I recommend
Code: [Select]
[S] as the code. Only, maybe, to stop problems with BBCode, use Parentheses instead of brackets for the symbols, since both U and B are BBCode tags.

And for untap, I think that [Un] would be best. That's what I used on CC. Its a brand new symbol, though, so CC didn't have it.

I understand, and I'll work to make it that way. Problem is that there are several conflicts there, and I also can't just do the colors or else it chnages all following text to that color. Like I said, I'm working to figure it out.

Now THAT is a good idea. I'll probably change it to parenthesis for now.

Will do.

EDIT: Okay, fixed them all so they're in parenthesis now. For the Blue/Green conflict, I did B for Blue and Bk for Black.

Black is always B and Blue is U (because Black is B and Land is L).

Just to let you know. :D

Didn't you use to play MtG?

(And maybe this should be split off into general MtG discussion, so people can review my DCS!)

Yeah, Dain, if we ever get more people 'round here, sticking with B for black and U for blue would be better, as it's how it's done on Wizards itself. Also, I think Untap should be UT, since Tap is T, I think it'd create less problems... And NBarden, I don't thik Dain has ever played MtG, not that I can remember, at least.

He told me that he played way back when unlimited released or something like that. Before he joined CC.

Maybe it was Alpha...hm...

Done! NB, you'll probably want to edit your post with the new symbols.

Not sure what it was called, but it was in MtG's infancy, like RIGHT when it came out. I didn't play for very long, since my parents weren't big fans, but it was interesting.
