Penny Dreadful Format Legal Cards List is Incorrect
TappedOut forum
Posted on Dec. 29, 2016, 4:36 p.m. by bakert
www.pdmtgo.com/legal_cards.txt is the arbiter of what's legal in the Penny Dreadful format.
Tapped Out's Penny Dreadful legality is not respecting this list (it marks almost everything legal as illegal).
Does anyone know how to get this fixed? Thanks!
yeaGO fixed this for us last time but I'm not sure if I can tag them here?

Tappedout doesn't run on an automated system in terms of card database, all the cards and all information they have associated with them are user generated and input.
PD is a rotating format with thousands of cards moving in and out, and there is no feasible way for anyone to make heads or tails of what's in and out every three months, then also change each one of those cards legalities by hand. So while it's fine to build a deck in that format, you're probably just better with the old "Don't worry about what tappedout says is and isn't legal" piece.

Legality is not user generated anymore DevoidMage, it is entirely up to yeago, with the exception of bans. I was able to get yeago to have most of the entire legality system automatic after realizing that it adds another 2 hours plus to my time when adding sets.

Penny Dreadful is not really a format Tappedout supports anymore.
Why not? Who is in charge of that? Why does it appear as an option if it is unsupported?
"there is no feasible way for anyone to make heads or tails of what's in and out"
The link I provided is the complete list of legal cards for the format and is canonical. It is always up to date. There is a rotation every 3 months but almost every format updates on a similar schedule due to new set releases.
Legality is not user generated anymore
That's my understanding too. Hence this thread! Is anyone able to help? Thanks!

Still have the same issue. All main deck cards are illegal, except basic lands. All sideboard are okay.
