I was chatting with one of the other mega-group leaders and we thought; wouldn’t it be neat if there were some sort of Players’ Council type of thing? A way for the devs to interact with members of the community and get proper feedback about the players’ experiences in the game.

    It's up to the devs to be interested in it

    As the Official Magic the Gathering Puzzle Quest Loremaster for the FTA coalition family, I wholeheartedly approve of this message.

    Yeah, obviously. But I bet we could put together one heckuva focus group. Especially if we got the content creators and team recruiters involved.

    Thanks, Jay! We could definitely use someone like you in the focus group because we don’t always hear from long-term casual players. Also, they’ve effed up some of the lore in the past and it’s pretty irritating so your encyclopedic knowledge of MtG lore would be super-useful!

    I'm in favor of this. I've invested enough time and resources into this great game, I have a vested interest in its growth and continued development.

    @NerdThuggery absolutely you should help us. Your podcast has been so much fun to listen to. I bet you talk to a lot of players and have interesting insights to share... and effective ways to package those ideas!

    I've made this suggestion a few times and yes ! 100% count me in. I think its an epic idea but one the devs have to embrace, for sure.

    All I'm saying is let's not get too excited before we even hear if there is any interest from their side

    Count me in too, I agree 100%! I strongly believe such a council could have made a huge difference already.

    I too would be interested in being considered for included on such a council. :)

    Great idea! Hopefully the new devs can see the upside of unified player participation with the aim to help them improve the game even further.

    Don't necessarily need to be in, but I support the idea. Channeling the power of the most enfranchised playerbase would be beneficial to the game long term, whilst also keeping an eye out for the vitality and longevity of the game through attracting and binding new players

    Some people just wanna feel like they are better than the rest of the players.
    Disappointed to see Goz so eager for the idea. Not surprised with Mainloop.

    You’re like the bitter Scrooge of these forums. Going out of your way to be disrespectful. Projecting much?

    I appreciate all the content creators and their input (Goz, Nal, Main, Hunter, shteev etc). Veterans like Julie (rip) or Opperstamper just the same, so if they want to participate in this I'm all for it.

    Is it REALLY A council meeting if @Janosik isn't there? Missa Think Not.
