Oracle database seems incomplete ,could not find Aminatou. Else a great tool.

Excellent app. However, I used to be able to download card images from the Gatherer, but that ability no longer functions. An error message reads "having trouble downloading image from gatherer, please try again later." When I do try again, still nothing.

Great app, very complete. However today I was at my PPTQ and needed some oracle texts. The app didn't display them anymore. Neither did it for the rules and IPG. All the items' structures were shown but none of the articles popped up. I uninstalled the app, then downloaded it again. Everything was back to normal. It would be nice to have several other languages added to the app, especially for the oracle part. I know my French and Spanish players would be grateful.

How is it possible that my moto G3 is "not compatible" with this app? How can this app cannot work in Android 6? 1 star until it's fixed

About this app

Follow on Twitter for updates, especially if you are a user of a mobile device of an older Android version: @nd_rue

Judge Core App, the app created with the intention of being the core app for expansion if need be.
Supposedly picking up where MTG Judge left off, it has spawned itself into a new project.

- Runs perfectly fine offline - great for when you're judging overseas
- Searchable offline oracle card database
- Complete Infraction Procedure Guide
- Complete Comprehensive Rules
- Complete Magic Tournament Rules
- Decklist counter
- Quick Reference for items like Penalties and Layers

For the permissions required that it displays when you first install the app, here's an explanation of what they are needed for:
- Permission to access the Internet: For downloading of updated database and other little bells and whistles, eg. downloading the corresponding card image from Gatherer, etc.
- Permission to access your external storage: For storage of images downloaded, and as a temporary storage location when downloading the updated database. This is to prevent any corruption of the existing database in the event of a failed download.
- permission.C2D_MESSAGE and permission.RECEIVE: For GCM message receiving

This app is a personal project of Andrew Teo.

Do report any bugs by emailing ndrue.teo@gmail.com with "MTG Judge Core" as the email's subject.

Important Update:

With regards to other languages, I have no intention of doing so, due to the fact that it would:
a) Make the database grow X times in size, where X is the number of languages
b) Also cause the translation to not be from the official documents, which would/might cause confusion, and that is what I wish to avoid at all times

New features

-- Updated Comprehensive Rules, IPG, MTR
-- Updated Banned and Restricted List
-- Added Pauper to B&R List
-- Updated Core Set 2020 legality
-- Fixed Oracle image download
