I'm interested in where the database came from. Is this all manually compiled or pulled from a general source?



+1

I have previously written a crawler for http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Default.aspx in Perl that was fairly effective, but never actually finished with the project. That may be a potential source for the data, though.


All source is pulled form the gatherer. Public Information


It's a cool API, I like it.

Just be careful because Wizards of the Coast might disagree with you about what is and isn't public information. Especially when you are showing the rating and number of votes and rating straight from Gatherer.
