    Favorite Bands

    Just kidding. Previous posting not withstanding, I was weaned onto Hard Rock/Heavy Metal by Sweaty Teddie Nugent (Double Live Gonzo Baby!). I moved on from there to such classic bands as Rush, Sabbath, Aerosmith, and UFO, before I topped out with stuff like Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Guns and...

    Seahunter

    You've had this posted for what, a day and a half? On a weekend, when we're less busy here, no less? You've got to be kidding! For starters, I think you need to work on the curve a bit. I don't know how things stand in your neck of the woods, but to me a good weenie/Stompy type deck will...

    Best Gratuitious "Babe" Art

    Oookaaayyyy! Anything you say, arhar. For me, it's Serra Angel all the way, with the female Elvish Ranger a close second. Anybody remember something in one of the Magic Mags (Inquest, I think) about the Magic Movie, starring Michelle Pfeiffer as the Elvish Ranger? Yum! :D

    New Card Ideas

    Though I think Istanbul and Gizmo would be much better at things like finding broken cards, and balancing things (though I think Giz needs to add 1 or 2 to his card's CC). Maybe I could help with the background story a bit, and with stuff like flavor text. Send me whatever you've got on the...

    Though I'm thinking about taking Chasden up on his offer. Click on the link for Buy Cards on the Main Page for more info...

    DOH! :o Thanks Apollo! I completely missed that!

    Veteran Status

    Try PM'ing him, Fire Slinger, or send him a note via email. He'll see it better that way. Also, typically requests for nicknames and membership status changes have been done through the Suggestions Forum in the past. It's likely that's why he didn't notice it here. I know it's not written down...

    New Card Ideas

    I saw that you were looking for this in the CoW thread, and thought maybe this would help: Crystal Cave Land Crystal Cave comes into play tapped Crystal Cave does not untap during your untap step 1: Untap Cyrstal Cave. This ability can only be used during your upkeep, and only once per turn T...

    Calling all playtesters!

    Well, but maybe not much. Still, it would be cool, not only because I'd get to check out what's coming out before anyone else gets to see them, but also because I'd get a chance to help find all the broken cards BEFORE they're released. And that would be great! :D

    Write Your Combo

    My favorite combo all time was Black Vise/Howling Mine/Winter Orb, but they made it illegal. My current, legal, combo would be Mana Flare/Sacred Mesa, since that's still my funnest deck. I didn't say it was killer... ;)

    So what does the CPA do now?

    Although I'm not too sure about the God thing there at the end ;). I took the liberty of copying the text of Mr. Adkison's response to that particular question here, for your perusal: It seems to me what he actually said was, he USUALLY prefers to do his market research differently. We...

    Do kids ruin your game?

    But that's a story for another day (or thread). I tend to take my opponents as they come. I play the same way whether I'm going against someone younger than me (most everybody!), older than me (it's happened once or twice, I swear!), male, or female. At least, I do until we've had a chance to...

    CPA Voting Issues: Block Mechanics

    Thankfully, Ed or perhaps someone else caught it and fixed it. Thanks to whoever it was. :D

    Magic & You

    But I don't see how I can fit this into the Voting Booth! ;) I'll do like Hawaiian, and answer like this: -I love playing Magic. -I play Magic for the exhilarating competitive atmosphere. -I play Magic to win! -I play Magic as an alternative hobby to other usual things ie: Drinking at the...

    Best Edition

    How ya' doin'! Welcome to the CPA! How do you mean "best edition"? Do you mean "What's the best Edition of the basic set?" That's easy enough - for me, that would be Alpha/Beta/Unlimited. Or do you mean "What's your Fav set?" If that's the case, there's currently a thread in the Issues Forum...

    CPA Voting Issues: Block Mechanics

    That was either the best ACC spell, or a close 2nd, depending on whether you liked Sligh/Deadguy Red. And the concept of ACC has sprung up again in MMB. My vote's for ACC, though I think there's plenty of excellent Block Mechanics. In fact, I know it, since I just set this up as a Voting Topic...

    good join the heralds, bad dies, cause bad is dumb

    Did you guys forget that in that fight scene in "Spaceballs" (which, BTW, is a tremendously funny flick) Dark Helmet lost the fight with the "Good Guy" and set off the self-destruct mechanism himself? Didn't that teach you anything? :p

    Star Wars vs Star Trek

    Man, you guys, esp. The Pie-Eater, are taking this WAY too seriously! People, mellow out fer Chrissakes! I thought Apollo's post said it all. If you've got the time, Trek on! If you don't, Star Wars is GREAT!. It's as simple as that. BTW, my current fav Sci-Fi series is Stargate. I know the...

    Who wants a good 7th edition?

    It's every players dream to own and use those cards! They have an unmistakable aura about them that screams power, prestige, coolness factor... I imagine all players, but especially newer ones, will be talking about them until WotC DOES reprint them, in one form or another. Of course, then...
