Original Post:

A while ago I assembled the cards for a Pauper cube on MTGO.

It's where Armadillo Cloak meets Agony Warp and Izzet Signets power out Ninja of the Deep Hours. It should be quite fun.

I have some software for doing a draft through your browser but it's not finished and I don't have time to work on it now. So let's just do a low tech draft. I'll send you an email with a list of cards in your first booster. You remove the card you want and forward the email on to the person specified. It'll probably take a few days to complete the draft but who cares. You're on the honor system not to look ahead if packs queue up for you (as they surely will).

Then you email me the complete list of cards you drafted and I transfer them (temporarily!) to your MTGO account to play the games.

It's a bit manual, but I think it would be cool. And if it's that good, I'll work on the browser-based drafter for future runs.

If you want to draft, reply with your MTGO nick to this thread.

Spoke with Amar, we both have packs at 1c and 1b on lap with same amount of cards, so one of you out there missed a pick. So we can either go back up the chain from Amar and work out where it is, or a better solution for me would be keep it how it is, got a very nice pick.

If someone just forgot to delete their pick there will be two of that card in the draft but you only have one to give out so someone ends up with nothing from one of their picks!

OR people could just notice and then reply back to say that the card hasn't been taken.....
Also, could whoever put the card list into a silly small font, not do that?!

OK cool. I sent out everybody's pack 2. Please don't "open" it until you have completed pack 1, for those that haven't had their (2) last card(s) yet.
