The Magic Librarities

For the 5% of you that know what it is without Googling it, get out your Captain Midnight Secret Decoder Ring.

I don't think this is just a misprint or a printer flubb because it is both on my English and Korean cards.

Note the flavor text on the RTR Guildgate cards. It must be a code.




Are the other languages like this? If so I need a set in each language for my "pages of interest" collection.

Gary

I can send you the Japanese Gates, as I should have a full set of them. I'll add them to the "stack."

I can confirm that this also happens in Spanish:

Selesnya: v
Azorius: e, n
Golgari: g, o, á
Izzet: o, m, e, i
Rakdos: i, r

LOL

Saw this on face book a while ago

The Guildgates in both Return to Ravnica and Gatecrash have letters in the flavour text which are out of alignment with the others.

Azorius: TIFI
Izzet: HLRC
Rakdos: EDAA
Golgari: GSV
Selesnya: UON

when rearranged, spelling: THEGUILDSOFRAVNICA

Orzhov: WEYO
Dimir: ISET
Gruul: LTAH
Boros: LRCE
Simic: DOHR

when rearranged, spelling: WILLDESTROYEACHOTHER

The result: "THE GUILDS OF RAVNICA WILL DESTROY EACH OTHER"

I'll bet that was "leaked" as I don't think anyone ever picked up on it accidently. I got a hint about it and started looking and even then didn't find them all.

Clay! I woulld much appreciate a set in Japanese.

Would some of the rest of you get me the other languages?

I will build pages for them in my collection.

Gary

The flavor text for Dragon's Maze is different than the other two sets but I have not been able to figure out the letters yet (need beeter than a 4x I guess).

Gary

I got it,
so for the US version we can read :

Azorius UADLR
Orzhov NGADE
Dimir LENPD
Izzet EIDA
Rakdos SSTC
Golgari SHHT
Gruul TEEH
Boros HAGO
Selesnya ELUN
Simic MEIO

UNLESS THE MAGE IS HEALED AND THE GUILDPACT HONORED

Wow, to be young again and be able to see and hear and.... well, to be young again.

Thanks so much.

Would it be asking too much to have you do it in French also? I plan to make a set of each language I can get. German has been offered, I have English and Korean, Haven't asked yet but hoping that those that helped so far will with this set too.
The lands should be easy to get as there is one in each booster.

Gary

I guess you'll need spanish too, isn't it?

Still with Dragon maze Guilgate (french ones) :

Porte de la guilde d'Azorius : SBTEUE
Porte de la guilde d'Orzhov : AYRPIT
Porte de la guilde de Dimir : UREALA
Porte de la guilde d'Izzet : FISCDB
Porte de la guilde de Rakdos : SNOTEL
Porte de la guilde de Golgari : ITLESI
Porte de la guilde de Gruul : LHUDE
Porte de la guilde de Boros : EEEES
Porte de la guilde de Selesnya : LETST
Porte de la guilde de Simic : ASLGR

Sauf si le labyrinthe est résolu et le pacte des guildes est rétabli.

Ravnica :
Porte de la guilde d'Azorius : LIDN
Porte de la guilde d'Izzet : ELEI
Porte de la guilde de Rakdos : SDRC
Porte de la guilde de Golgari : GEAA
Porte de la guilde de Selesnya : USV
Les Guildes de Ravnica

Gatecrash
Orzhov : V'EI
Dimir : OEDR
Gruul : NNÉE

Ah, my friend, you know I was thinking of you.....

Yvel!

That is wonderful. Just what I need. Thanks so much.

Gary

Hi all,

here is the German solution for the Dragon's Maze puzzle:

Azorius: B R T D E
Boros: A L G E T
Dimir: S N N N E
Golgari: S G E N I
Gruul: L E R D S
Izzet: D T D B R
Orzhov: I I U E U
Rakdos: A H D U T
Selesnija: B Ö I R
Simic: Y S L N

"BIS DAS LABYRINTH GELÖST UND DER GILDENBUND ERNEUERT IST"

Now I immediately need to relax and recover my old yes from these tiny letters!

How about a sweet young Korean woman to give you an eye massage?

Gary

Hehe, sounds great ... But after looking at the Korean letters I have deep respect for any Korean trying to solve the puzzle. THAT would really hurt my eyes!
