A naive loop over all possible Multiverse IDs, and a similar attempt at compiling a list of valid Multiverse IDs (per issue #4), is far too slow and error prone.
A better approach is to pull the list of Multiverse IDs, and total card count, from the Gatherer expansion set page with the visual spoiler output (since it is not paginated).

One issue with this approach is that it does not factor in variations of the same card, or two-sided cards.
