I must have some time on my hands at work.
CPA the name. While I like this name I don't. Someone mentioned the name is a misnomer. You bet it is. Casual seems like a bad word. If you play magic (my opinion folks) I don't think it's casual. Just because your not a Pro or cut-throat doesn't mean your a mean person. I've read several postings and have come to he conclusion that you "regulars" are not at all casual. I think your average. Competitive yet not too much...casual yet you care enough to be here.
I recognize the purpose of this place. A place for people to post, read and take polls about Magic and having a place to do it. You don't discrminate against pros but theres an aura of going against the grain. I've personally witnessed other sites (I wont name them) the sheer arrogance and elitist attitude sites have. To these sites...screw em'..but Ill return because I love information..whether it's from an elitist or from here..the other side.
I just read SOL MALKAS campaign for people to "vote" for him in the writers war at CCG..he ribs this site in the fact it's "Casual"...it's like you have to have a "casual" disclaimer or joke as to appease the audience here. I think your members are above that. I maybe wrong because I've been here just over a week and have been flamed on more than one occasion. But, I have to admit -- I like confrontations...It MAKES you think.
back to the subject...the Name CASUAL PLAYERS ALLIANCE...If I had enough money I'd pay you to change the name. Your readers and members are much more than casual. They are the heart and soul of Magic. I honestly believe that if WIZARDS stops printing Magic and shuts down the TOUR..this place would have a surgence of members. Why? Because long after Magic has died (I really don't see that happening) there will be players..not casual players but true PLAYERS.
If I could change the name...I might re-name it this.
"Players Alliance"
"The Gathering"
"Friends of Magic"
"Not So Casual Players Alliance"
"The Game"
"Anti-Establishment"
or something to that effect....make some suggestions even though it will probably NEVER happen.
And one more thing. The logo. Yuck. Im a designer by trade and I will offer my services for free (normally 50.00 an hour for web logos and banners)...Just tell me the parameters and I can submit 10-20 logos that are web-ready.
Im 100% sure I pissed some people off but Ill take it. I just want to help out a site that I like. (For Free).
