holy crap people like yardsales. and people keep asking me how my neighborhood did the map, so after 2 years of sales and 3 rounds of improvements, I figured it was time to make it easier to share sparkstonepdx.com/post/2026-07...

The Map I Never Meant to Build

Sixty thousand views, three neighborhoods asking to borrow it, and a little map that got a bit better every spring until it turned into something anyone can run.

I woke up at 5:30 this morning to a backblaze alert. The Europe account had hit 75% of it's transaction cap.

This is a big one, so we're rolling it out to staging.arcanetable.app first to catch any issues before it hits production.

Ask anyone what they remember about the best wedding they've ever been to. Almost nobody says the centerpieces.

I've spent the last 3 days squashing new bugs now, but I think this deck editor is going to look really nice now. here is a before and after #mtg #arcanetable #tcg

so.. continuing down my hyperfocus rabbit hole. would it be cool if arcanetable supported multiple trading card games?

Nobody warns you: the week after your wedding involves tracking down photos from every phone, group chat, and airdrop before they vanish forever.

This also led to a new feature in arcanetable.app you can now add ?system=[your card server url] the end of the url and use your own card system so now if you want to play proxies, create a cube, or make your own tcg game you can use arcanetable with your own card server for it!

This ended up leading to an idea and about 2 days of work so far working on a new tcg idea.

the real question is... how do we even fit this on a mobile phone in portrait with an unknown total number of players? is this something that would even be fun to play? #ccg #battleroyale #indiegame #mobile #ideas

what tcg games are people enjoying these days? mtg seems like they are enshitifying #tcg

I've been trying to come up with a mobile in person battle royale game idea since I really enjoyed the interactions katachi.pro then I had this weird mixed reality dream some time last week

I ended up paying for ahrefs for a month because I didn't even know that Google Search Console could do keywords for you. But I just figured out how to do it.
