My deck description is one big link??

So, my entire deck description for my deck Oops! All Goblins appears as a link to my Wheel of Fortune alter. I didn't put brackets anywhere in the description, and I've tried editing it here and there to see if that shakes something loose, to no avail. I'm stumped. Any ideas?

Huh. At least it's a pretty alter

I would suggest editing your description, copy the text out of it into notepad. So you can type it back in later. Then replace your whole description with one word with no markup syntax. Then save it. Refresh the deck and see if the alter link is gone. If it is, just edit it again and write your text again. But type it in manually so you dont bring in any markup syntax that may be causing the issue.

Hey, it looks like the code for the link to the alter is not closing correctly in the HTML. This is nothing you did, it's the site. To test this please remove the alter A=26948 from Wheel of Fortune to see if your description changes.

Yep, it's a bug with the site since it's the HTML code for alter that's causing this. If I view your deck with categories by type and CMC then the description is not a link.

The reason that the description is a link when you view your deck with categories type and type is because the alter WOF is the last card in the decklist. The a tag in HTML for the link isn't closing in the right place which should be after the alter instead it's closing after the description.

multimedia That's definitely it, when I take out the alter code it goes back to normal, and when I put it back in it goes to a link. Also, when I go to edit I see that in the alter code, it's replacing the = with a space, but the alter is still showing, which I think is interesting.

Oh, there's also a colon in there, right after the A!

Yup, editing doesn't help, it just goes back to a colon and space.
