MTGO

I propose a magic the gathering online on this app through game center. You could use any of your pre-made decks on the server. So please consider this! I know you people want it!

WotC will not allow this.

If they get rights to then i think they should. Even if you have to pay for it.

However great this app is, it is not affiliated with WotC so they will probably never allow it to happen as they would lose money and website hits (or whatever the Internet equivelant to ratings are).

I think the best you could hope for is an official Wizards app that lets you use your MTGO account.

Couldn't there be an approachto WotC so this would become an oficial app? They would have almost 0 work to create the app, and would get money and merchandising. Also piotr would get more money as people would see the app in the site and it would be divulgated. I think its worth a try for a partnership. The worst it can be is a No, which wouldnt be bad for us

Yeah that could be helpful

 The only way for that to happen is for Piotr to sell he rights to the app to them and they take over, (and if you know anything behind EDH/Commander, that may not end well. ).  That much is up to Piotr, but I would love to live In a world where we get this amazing app that we can play MtG on and Piotr gets a bunch of cash for his troubles.

I thought about shared rights over the app, and shared money too

Even if WotC made their own app; I
think that this is still something the app store needs. One way or another

The current status is, I sent an email to WotC support asking them to audit iMtG:

Dear Wizards,

I'm the author of iMtG, an iPhone app which is a tool for Magic players. My app seem to be growing in popularity and more and more players become dependant on it (1500-2000 new users every week). It would be a shame and great disappointment for many if I had to pull the app from the App Store or remove functionalities from it. I know that this has happened to other apps, so before I go any further in development of the app, I would like to ask you to perform a legal audit of it. What I mean by this is basically you looking at my app to see whether you are happy with it as it is, or whether there are any changes required to make you happy. I hope this makes sense.

The app itself: itunes.apple.....2798013?mt=8

Kind regards,
Piotr

To which I received a prompt reply telling me that my request was escalated higher up, and now I'm waiting for the response.

Everyone is now required to cross their fingers until further notice. Thank you.

I cant wait. This could be really sweet. Go piotr

I think you missed the point. This has nothing to do with adding MTGO to iMtG, I'm just trying to establish an official relationship with WotC here. In the best case scenario they will officially allow me to use their copyrighted material (i.e. nothing changes for you guys), in the worst case they are sending DMCA takedown notice to Apple and iMtG is removed from the App Store.

Should we install imtg and get off beta testing for the time being in case they remove it from the AppStore and then we have nothing? What do you think
