Viewing this on my desktop, {c} simply appears as text. It must be my iPod that turns it into a rectangle. Changing this from a bug into a feature request.

Old version: "The chaos symbol ({c}) doesn't display properly. It seems to make a rectangle instead."

My laptop also displays it as a rectangle, but only in cards. In dud1818's comment, it doesn't load.

Very odd; I see literal here.

One problem with use of C for chaos is that c and d are very commonly used for "A colour, any colour" Not insurmountable but possibly annoying.

As you can see, I already have the code that tries to insert the chaos symbol; it's just that I hadn't uploaded the actual image. Anyway, this will be arriving with planes in the next couple of days.

To V's point, most of the time when people say C for "any colour" they write it as "3C" or "1CCC" rather than "{1}{C}{C}{C}". This will just encourage that further :P

BTW, sorry dude1818 for the error you got searching for Planes. I'm looking into why that happens.

So you do get those error reports.

implemented

Heh. I've only been getting them for a few weeks, actually. Rails claims I get them, but nothing notifies me by default; I had to install a special logging addin and manually add my own exception-watching notification!

But yes, I do now. The problem was a few odd second-halves-of-cards mucking up the database. They're all fixed now, and it ought to work fine - although to search for planes (and not planeswalkers), you'll have to search "Types" for "Plane -" (including the space and hyphen).

Enter mana symbols like this: {2}{U}{U/R}{PR}, {T} becomes {2}{u}{u/r}{pr}, {t}
