Title: Viewing someone elses history
Post by: sithantic on August 15, 2014, 01:28:47 AM
On the planeswalkers.com site, is there a way to view another players history? Like, to see if they've gone to PTQ's or GP's?

PTQ = Pro Tour Qualifier

GP = Grand Prix

They are both types of large mtg tournaments. The ones you'd have to go to a convention center for, and perhaps find some pro players there. Not your typical local game shop affair.

You don't have to be qualified for a PTQ, another large tournament are the SCG invitationals, and the players championship.

Yes you do. Now you have to go to a PTQQ to qualify for a PTQ.

The topic pertains to structured mtg events, shock they were talking about. If they went off on a tangent about marshmallow fluff, then I would ask them to stay on topic, but they didn't, so I won't.

No, the topic is viewing other people's history on planeswalkers.com. Not about events.

But your question encompassed events like gp's and what not, and people had questions. Don't be a thread nazi please.

My question didn't intentially encompass them. I was using as an example. There doesn't need to be 7 posts after discussing PTQ's or the new changes to them. Those are tangents.

Nice to see Godwin's Law only took 11 posts. But I'll be a thread nazi in my on thread. I'd like an answer to the question, not discussions about irrelevant things.
