MTGO does not follow the rules of Promise of Loyalty by allowing players to opt out of putting a vow counter on a creature they control.

The official ruling of Promise of Loyalty states: "Each player, including you, must put a vow counter on a creature they control if able. They can't choose to opt out and sacrifice all of their creatures."

However, on MTGO it gives players an option to click "No" when it's time to assign a vow counter, allowing them to sacrifice all of their creatures. This bug caused me to lose a game because my opponent was able to sacrifice their single creature on their board (their commander), and recast it on their next turn to attack me with lethal damage. 

I am getting really tired of losing to bugs on mtgo. I've submitted this one on their official forums, but if anyone with the power to fix it sees this please do so, as it's a very big oversight.

I want to build a deck that is purely meant to befriend/help an opponent who hasn't won a game so far that night. What cards and commander would you recommend?

I start to feel bad if I win more than once during EDH night at my LGS, so I want to be able to switch to a deck that is all about helping the underdog at the table - all while keeping myself alive.

I also wouldn't mind having a sideboard of cards to swap in if I want to play it to win, with the strategy of surviving until it is just the two of us before activating a wincon with cards such as [[Insurrection]], [[Reins of Power]], and [[Inkshield]].

Here is a deck list of what I have come up with so far, though I'm thinking of switching to a wider color scheme since two of the wincon cards mentioned above don't currently qualify.

I've given up on trying to achieve this challenge after shooting down at least 8 aircraft without the game registering it. So frustrating.

I'm super happy with this deck but struggling to figure out which single card to remove. What would you suggest?

I've been playing it on MTGO for the last few weeks and it's extremely resiliant with lots of ways to keep yourself alive while quickly acquiring a variety of wincons. Children of Korlis is the MVP and useful in so many ways.

I chose to avoid popular cards such as [[Ripples of Undeath]] and [[Dark Confidant]] to reduce the risk of it backfiring.

Seeking help determining which card to trim off, as well as overall advice.

What are your absolute favorite songs to play on drums?

I just got a drum set controller and am eager to find the most fun songs. I've installed over 1,000 songs and still making my way through them, but right now the ones I play over and over again on drums are:

  1. Henrietta by The Fratellis

  2. Bad Reputation by Joan Jett

  3. Go With the Flow by Queens of the Stone Age

  4. Pump It Up by Elvis Costello

  5. Tom Sawyer by Rush

  6. Outtathaway by The Vines

  7. She's Kerosene by The Interrupters

  8. In the Meantime by Spacehog

  9. Been Caught Stealing by Jane's Addiction

  10. Pretty Fly (For a White Guy) by The Offspring

I'm especially interested in discovering more great punk style songs.
