What would the holiday season be without the perennial of new cards from our good friends over at CiM? It's become almost something of a holiday tradition to have new injections of material into the metagame around this time of year, and for 2024 there shall be no disappointment, for just in the past few weeks a new update to the Prize Wheel supplementary set has been announced. As usual for these supplement releases, the cards have no shortage of spice to them, and there's a little something for everyone in there as well, including a couple of new and very notable Mane Characters! There's not much that animates the spirits of Hithroc and I like new cards to tinker with, so naturally we simply must have a look at these, and tell you all what we think.

We'll have that for you at our usual Saturday stream time of 9:30 AM Pacific (12:30 PM Eastern) over on https://www.twitch.tv/meticuloustalks

Good evening, Everypony!

We are almost two weeks into the Open Beta of Prize Wheel 4, and even in this short amount of time we have made significant changes to a few of these cards! As we continue deckbuilding and getting test games in, we want to provide some insight into our intentions with this new supplement, so that you have a better idea of what we hope these designs will accomplish in the current meta!

Join us this December 1st at 7:00 PM Pacific as we highlight the design intentions of Prize Wheel 4!

Does anyone have them and want to sell them? I am looking for all of em from r,sr,ssr,ur,lsr and sgr rarity plus the ones from the second box that had tgr cards.

Over the entire course of at least the modern history of the CCG, there has been one constant: that the Midwest has always remained a hotbed of creativity and dedication to the craft of this game. Thus it has never been a surprise that Ponyville Ciderfest and the other conventions in that region have been places to see innovation in the space. Especially for this year's Core meta, where the con tournament represented a chance for builders to grapple with the revelations of this year's Continentals event. Would it be another mess of White and Canterlogic everywhere, or would people find some way to tamp down on the things that ran rampant at Everfree? Now, the results are in, and we can talk about them. Meticulously.

As usual, our stream will start at 9:30 AM Pacific time (12:30 Eastern) on https://www.twitch.tv/meticuloustalks

Good evening everypony!

Ponyville Ciderfest 2024 has come and gone, and it was a blast! Thank you to everypony who came and saw us in the Tabletop Gaming room and attended our Design-a-Card panel!

We also want to thank Joking Luna for working with Staff to run multiple CCG events throughout the weekend. All of us in attendance enjoying participating!

Of course, any time there is a convention or major CCG event, we want to take some time and recap the top decks from each Constructed Tournament, but we also have a special announcement that some of you may have seen something about already, but you'll need to stick around at the end to get the full scoop!

Join us this Sunday, November 17th at 7:00 PM Pacific as we look at the top decks from the Constructed events at PVCF 2024, and discuss what we have planned for the near future!

This was a new format I came up with this year. Adventure format, but Titles and Subtitles with the Mane 6 from G4 and G5 are not allowed.
In hindsight, it does seem to hearken back to Silver Spanner.

Familiarity with the MLPCCG is helpful, but not required.

Join us at Ponyville Ciderfest – Sunday, November 3rd at 12:30 PM Central in the Caramel Room!

Good evening, Everypony!

We are just under a week away from Ponyville Ciderfest 2024! It's going to be a great weekend! Leading up to the event, we wanted to take some time to show what decks we are bringing for both the Core and Harmony Constructed events.

Join us this Sunday October 27th at 7:00 PM Pacific as we discuss what we’re running at Ponyville Ciderfest 2024!

Hithroc and I have taken an extended break thanks to the intercession of the Canadian Thanksgiving holiday, but after that we are ready to go once again. And in the intervening time there was a Harmony tournament held online. Harmony is something of an acquired taste, having a reputation as a haven for degeneracy, and indeed looking around at these tournament I see some amount of familiar faces. But it can often be illuminating to see the kind of innovation that takes place in such a cutthroat environment as the Harmony meta. In order to shine here, cards need to really be worth their weight. So the two of us will take a look and have a talk.

The stream will be live on https://www.twitch.tv/meticuloustalks starting at 9:30 AM Pacific time (12:30 PM Eastern).

2 sealed boxes of series 1 1 unsealed box of series 1 2 sealed boxes of series 2

I found these while cleaning and I see a bunch on eBay for over $1000 but nothing's sold. So if I try and sell these how much should I ask in CAD$?

Thanks

This past weekend, we hosted an OnlineCon that featured the first Harmony event since New Generation's release!With new cards out in the wild, there's great opportunity to try new ideas or improve on old classics, so we are going to take a closer look at the craziness that always happens when Harmony's involved!

Last OnlineCon's theme was mill. This one's theme is pile, but also mill. Also maybe don't schedule an OnlineCon at the same time as a real ponycon. Woops.

A little over five years ago, spurred by an interest in statistical modelling and just a wee little bit of data science, I started a project that I called TIA, which is a quite tortured acronym standing for Transformed Index of Achievement. Now a lot has changed since then, but the project has moved on and grown more complex and more comprehensive with each passing year. So I figure that here, on its five-year anniversary, would be a good time to talk a bit about the history of the project, some of the math that goes into computing it these days, and some of my plans for future expansion and elaboration. Math and statistics can sometimes be dry topics, but I'm going to do my best to provide some context and keep things interesting, so if you're interested in where exactly the numbers that get posted in TIA updates come from, this may be the stream for you.

The stream will air in our usual scheduled time slot of 9:30 AM Pacific time (12:30 PM Eastern) on September 28, 2024. You can watch it on https://www.twitch.tv/meticuloustalks
