Unreleased cards have been an issue for us for a moment on SimOrg. But I think we came up with a fun solution to have them in client with some placeholder art. I did the trap cards. I cannot draw for my life if you can't tell.

SIMORG // UPDATE PRE-RELEASE CARDS ENABLED.... // ERROR // FAILED TO LOAD ARTWORK... PLACEHOLDER ARTWORK ENABLED.

I put in a lot of work to make this happen and I personally love how SimOrg came out so I would appreciate if you checked it out!

www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WZF... Surprise! Thanks to @neilbefore.me and their legendary UI/UX work we're ending early access! Special shoutout to @littlekuriboh.bsky.social for her outstanding performance on my script, so much talent I could've made a 2nd out of the outtakes alone. Enjoy Simorg!

Did a bit of long-overdue Yugioh feed cleanup and removed some old allowlisted users who are no longer talking about Yugioh as well as hard blocked a recurring NSFW account that happened to be using the term "blue-eyes" a lot. I've definitely been slacking lately so I'll try and keep up on it more

Picked up some new cards for the slop pile. +5 Franchises getting us ever closer to the ideal Magic the Gathering deck.

Very happy to get this feature out to everyone! Excited to see what you all do with it. Feel free to tag us if you're doing something cool!

The Master Duel Pack Simulator is now live for EVERYONE over at YGO Prog! Check it out over at www.ygoprog.com/MasterDuelPa...

I never talked to Alex Cimo. But I wouldn't be playing Yugioh without Cimo. I wouldn't be in this community without Cimo. I wouldn't have these projects that I love working without on Cimo. I wouldn't know almost any of you without Cimo. I wouldn't be where I am without Cimo.

I literally forgot to post that we did this yesterday lmao

YGO Prog@ygoprog.com

In addition to the Master Duel Pack Simulator we introduced yesterday, we also have some general improvements going out for everyone! We made Pack Summary and Individual Card pages available right on the site so you can easily see what cards you can pull!

Really excited for this one, we've been wanting to do this for quite some time!

The Master Duel Pack Simulator is now live on YGO Prog for Ultra Rare and higher Patrons!

I've been dragging my feet on this one a bit but at this point the site is pretty expensive to run, and I've been paying for it out of pocket. It's also given us some motivation to actually push on some of the features we've been planning. Pretty excited to get some of these out!

YGO Prog@ygoprog.com

Hey all, we recently put up a Patreon for YGO Prog. We've got a number of benefits available to patrons including no ads and early access to new features depending on the tier! We also have Master Duel Packs coming soon to the early access tier! Check it out here! www.patreon.com/cw/ygoprog/

I wanna give a huge shoutout to @convoke.games. Last night we were facing an issue on the platforms, and one of the devs quickly hopped in and worked with us to investigate the issue. And they had it resolved by morning! If you're looking to play paper commander online, Convoke is the way!

Legitimately, in a literal sense, art in deckbuilding

Neil@neilbefore.me

Behold, the worst deck I own. A deck I lovingly refer to as "The Slop Pile". A fully functional Universes Beyond commander deck, organized as all MTG decks should be - by franchise of source material. This is Magic the Gathering as Richard Garfield intended.

Imagine sitting down at our pod and Neil is on The Slop Pile and my mana base looks like this

I'm also extremely open to suggestions, especially on cards that will up the number of franchises. This is definitely a deck that I'm looking to "upgrade" with every new Universes Beyond release. But I'm also sure I missed some UB cards that could fit well within the deck mechanically.

did a quick update to prevent new posts from the user that was flooding the yugioh feed with the same post over and over. one of these days I should put something together to make management of the users and such a bit easier haha

3-1 at locals this week playing primite odion. I've been super unhappy with the format the last couple months and none of the decks i have access to were clicking with me or uh....performing at all. a friend sold me his odion core for cheap and then Coder, Neil, Chloe, and Momo helped me build.

they call it glizzard 3 in japan

Wynn@wynndam.bsky.social

I just saw someone refer to three hot dogs as a Final Fantasy spell called glizzaga and I’m losing my mind

Really excited for both this and our other planned features around this! Genesys Prog sound cool to anyone?

YGO Prog@ygoprog.com

YGO PROG UPDATE: Genesys - Added Genesys (and historical Genesys) support to our Deck Builder - Added Sets: MP25 Tins, MP25, DOOD We should have some other cool Genesys-related features coming out relatively soon too!

Did another pass here. Removed a few more keywords.

Neil@neilbefore.me

It's VERY overdue but I just did a bit of a Yugioh feed update. - Got rid of a couple of the remaining false positive key words. Almost all of them were from a couple keywords. (Sorry Maxx Crosby fans) - Added a couple more blocked words to curb those type of issue a bit more than I already have.

We have some more written Elestrals strategy content up on Top Elestrals!

Top Elestrals@topelestrals.com

New Top Elestrals Article! The first in a series of primers we have been working on is a Frost Primer written by @thelawygo.bsky.social This in-depth article will give you significant insight on how to effectively build and pilot Frost decks in Elestrals. Check out the article below!

I've gotten so much more done here and everything looks so much better than I ever could have imagined by this time. I think I can have my entire intended feature set ready before Elestrals Clash comes out.

Top Elestrals@topelestrals.com

I've been slowly releasing all sorts of features throughout the past few days. - Pretty in-article Deck and Card Embeds - EDK File Format Export - A revamped home page - Automatic Spirit Calculator in the deck builder Check it out over at www.topelestrals.com

This one was a lot of learning and was a significant challenge for me since I'm not generally a frontend dev. Please check it out if you are interested!

Top Elestrals@topelestrals.com

I put together a deck builder, along with a tournament, deck, and card database over at TopElestrals Check it out: www.topelestrals.com/deck-builder

Check out our latest post over at TopElestrals! I'm excited to get some written analysis started for Elestrals!

Top Elestrals@topelestrals.com

Check out our latest article over on TopElestrals, a competitive analysis piece by the one and only @daimax.bsky.social. I believe written competitive analysis is a key part of improving player's skills to please give it a read! www.topelestrals.com/posts/april-...

unrelated to the yugioh feed updates yesterday. there was some issue with integers getting converted to bigints that the atproto lexicon did not like so the feed was not ingesting new posts for a bit.

I'm unreasonably excited to switch over to Primite Blue-Eyes next week. I've been playing Fiendsmith Ryzeal. The Fiendsmith cards are so fun to play with, but the Ryzeal cards are just not.

Did a bit of a Yugioh Feed Update today. Added a couple more things to the blocklist, removed some users from the alwaysallow list as well as some keywords.

Hi, no that's not the case. I don't remember the screenshot but I must've posted it in the GF teraleak discord server when I was in there. Was looking to see the stuff and whether or not there was anything worth making a video about. Really hate that someone took that used a slur repeatedly.

This post is unavailable.

my biggest contribution is either ygoprog or the yugioh feed here on this very site

NR_YGO@nrygo.bsky.social

My biggest contribution was this post in response to a dzeef post. Like 500 NR decks, some other memes, but my this was my biggest.

Pretty happy with the results on my latest yugioh feed changes. Only been a few hours, but I haven't seen any overtly NSFW content on the feed since
