  • It's post-rotation and Alex is back into brewing for Standard. But with the format so fresh, what's a player to play?

    • @notme222
      @notme222 8 лет назад +41

      +bassvoice23 Because the MTG website is at the whim of however the wind blows through Hasbro headquarters.
      If you've been playing a long time you'll remember the Gleemax site. It was this poorly-defined vision for forums about games that functioned as a game itself. It never took off, but it functioned as a forum.
      When Randy Buehler left, the Gleemax vision died. The forums were down for SIX WEEKS before being replaced by something vastly inferior. Over the next year there would be constant issues with inability to log in, lost threads, etc. It was pretty much ignored.
      Then came the "social media" vision. The forums were expanded so that every user also had their own blog, people could form groups with their own schedule pages, there was a built-in wiki ... It was pushed by corporate to the point that all entrants to the GDS2 were required to do all their work on the wiki. (Which is not what the tool is designed for.)
      Naturally everyone hated that as the complexity made it harder to find what they really wanted to find. It fell into disuse and was abandoned for a few years except for a few stragglers who were still trying to enjoy the forums. Eventually even DailyMTG stopped linking to the forums at the end of articles.
      Speaking of which, over this time DailyMTG had several updates to the format and schedule. But now came the worst one: some boss at Hasbro read "Mobile First" in an issue of Forbes and ordered the whole layout to change.
      So now scheduled columns, special one-time pieces, and random bits of daily trivia were all given exactly the prominence on the Daily MTG page, with a little bit of text over a large picture, all in a random order and with no division between new and previous days. And the publish schedule was changed from "midnight" to "around 11-12ish when we feel like it."
      Naturally this has led to a drop in readership as it's more a pain to find what you want, and when you do you're less likely to browse around for other things of interest. Shortly after they also 100% removed the forums. Now you can't talk about Wizards of the Coast games on the WotC site.
      So with fewer people going there and people staying less when they do, it only "makes sense" to stop generating so much content for it. They've just recently dropped a couple columns (I think ... not that I can even tell what's a column anymore) and cut back on content like Friday Nights. It's just self-fulfilling management foolishness: make your site suck and people go to reddit, and then since they're on reddit you use that to justify making your site suck.
      But don't worry. In a few years a NEW manager will come on board and probably decide to launch a MTG tv channel featuring the Loading Ready Run Breakfast Hour. Because when you're the boss, no one tells you your idea is stupid.
