CubeTutor (Ben)

@BouqMtg @GwenDekker of course! :)

@cubetutor @GwenDekker Hey we wouldn't be here without you Ben! You still Cubing?

Nice to get a little shoutout at MagicCon Philly. Thanks to @GwenDekker and everyone else on the panel for the kind words. youtu.be/t8JQmmmXUAI?t=…

@jacobdvg Thanks Jacob. Just glad to be a part of it

@cubetutor Thanks for everything, you've been arguably *the* pillar of the community

Cube Tutor is now closed. I don’t expect to open up the server again so that I hope that everyone got what they needed. Thanks, Ben

@Feminine_Desire Thank you.

@cubetutor Unfortunate :( I hope everything works out for ya in this process.

Cube Tutor is live again for one final 24 hour period in order to allow the last few members to backup a copy of their cube lists. Details on my blog: cubetutor.wordpress.com/2021/11/03/cub…

@Feminine_Desire No. I have made no commitment that this will be published at all and right now simply managing the closure is taking up a lot of time. That said I am looking at some options for exporting some of the data for use elsewhere but I can offer no timeline on that.

@cubetutor Any word on when the tag data for all of your cards and the castle AI that uses said data will be available for sites to use? That data is very valuable.

I’ve been a bit overwhelmed with requests for cube backups. So I have decided that from 10AM GMT tomorrow I will open up the site for 24 hours so that you can export your list or use @CubeCobra1 ‘s “Import from Cube Tutor” feature. Please help me out and take this opportunity :)

@luckypaperMtG Thank you to Andy and everyone who contributed to this, it really got me good 😢

As of early this morning, @cubetutor has been permanently taken offline. With the help of community members and its creator, Ben, we put together a proper farewell to the first Cube management site luckypaper.co/podcast/a-fare…

@GaryXean No Gary, you don't need to do that. I have sent you an email. Thanks, Ben.

@cubetutor FIRST I'VE FUCKING HEARD OF IT! GUESS ME AND MY CUBE CAN FUCK OURSELVES, RIGHT?

so long, and thanks for all the drafts.

A quick reminder that Cube Tutor will be going offline permanently in under 48 hours. Please backup your cubes and / or migrate to @cubecobra1 before Monday 10:00 GMT #cubetutornews

"I don't think we have a good way to commemorate the loss of a website. It's somewhere between your vacuum cleaner breaking and the library burning down" @luckypaperMtG are producing a memorial podcast for CT. If you'd like to contribute, details here: luckypaper.co/podcast/bonus-…

In light of its imminent shutdown, we're working on an audio essay to recognize the essential role that @cubetutor has played in the Cube community. Help us out by sending voice memos of memories, reflections, or just thanks, to andymangold@gmail.com. (RTs appreciated)

@xarph I have been contacted by someone from Archive Team and am currently working with them over email, answering any questions and doing what I can to expedite the process. Please let me know if there is any other way that I can help.

I am sad to announce that I have made the decision to take Cube Tutor offline permanently on Monday 1st November. Full details here: cubetutor.wordpress.com/2021/10/04/the… Thanks to each and every one of you for your support over the years. - Ben

@Scuqualo You're welcome, thanks for being a part of it!

Farewell CubeTutor, its features have been an important part of what made my cube what it is now. My first recorded update was in 2013! Here are my final stats (I'm sure the whale and the vampire were simply not drafted enough times). Thank you for everything @cubetutor 💚

@kcolef Me too! 😥

@Edokwin Thanks Quinn, yes it's been a little while coming and was still a tough decision but sadly it's the right thing to do. Thanks for your support over the years.

We kinda saw the writing on the wall these last few weeks/months, but it's still heartrending all the same. The King is dead, long live the King

@talkshow_boy A sad day. Thank you

RIP CubeTutor, and thank you @cubetutor.
