Magic: The Gathering to iPod!

I just compiled a few decks I am playing with at the moment and decided to convert them into iPod format, so that I can take a look at my decks and make adjustments while I'm traveling.
You can download them HERE
If you wish to do the same with your decks, it is fairly simple:

  1. Copy all of your decks into a folder named "Mydecks" in your C: directory.
  2. Press Windows+R and write "cmd" into the little field and press enter.
  3. Type "cd.."
  4. Type "cd.." (again)
  5. Now you should be in the C: directory. Type "cd Mydecks", press enter.
  6. Now type "ren *.mwdeck *.txt" and press enter. This will make text files out of your decks.
  7. Go to this page (click ME). You will see two fields. Click on the one below where it says "Convert a text file on your computer to an ebook".
  8. Upload the file and the site will offer to download it.
  9. Now just go into itunes, enable disk usage for your ipod.
  10. Plug in your ipod and access it via Windows Explorer. Go to "Notes" and copy the content of the downloaded file into it.
  11. You're done! Now you can view your decks in your Extras/Notes folder. have fun!
