Was considering this idea since the first mention was made of "online player to player deck testing" was first suggested
it's a great idea, and should find reasonable success I imagine

Yeah, I basically stole the idea from you, you should get the credit ^_^
(I don't really even know how MWS works, I just really like the idea of an online League)

It basically makes you do EVERYTHING, the computer does nothing for you like Magic Online. To even Deal Damage you have to have the other player set their life and change it themselves, makes it easier to play cause you can do what you want whenever and not worry about the computer screwing things up... but still, I just got it.

It's the best free software I've used so far, not that I have any sort of profound experience with it either. Its certainly adequate though it has its limitations

Actually I like this idea in two ways. One is Online testing and other is for who don't know anything about the game magic they also can check the game and give the review. Nice thinking.

Is it free? They're trying to charge me $30. I'm not paying unless y'all really want to do this, in which case heck yes I am in all in. But for some reason mine isn't free unless I agree to sign up for lots of spam mail (??).

well you CAN pay for an account...but I don't have one...I still got whooped by a dredge deck the other day on it though...so I'm pretty sure for all intensive purposes you don't NEED an account

I used it for free on the WoW side of things as well - i think you just need to download it from their download area then get all the info/patches from the links at the bottom of that page

The way I got it for free was sign up for one of their offers, then cancel the offer as soon as you get the program code. It risks your credit card, you have to deal with canceling over the phone (stupid freecreditreport), but you get that program for free. I've been using it for quite some time, and it's the best i've found. I play on magic-league and use it for extensive testing.
