    Nickname?

    Too bad "Dirt Clod of Love" exceeds the 15 character limit. I think "Theoretical Entity" is over the limit too... Looks like it's "Rectum Chowder" for everyone! ROTFLMAO! :D

    ***VIRUS ALERT***

    I think...just think, mind you, that you may be overreacting a bit there, Istanbul. This virus thing though... Griffith_se, you got off easy if you only received 4 of them. I personally got over a hundred between Thursday and Friday, and some of the other people I work with got more than twice...

    Anyone see the Flyers'/Pens' game(s) last night?

    I caught part of the game myself, and it was excellent. I missed the end, though. And you're right, arhar. If Detroit had Hasek and Bure, they likely WOULD be unstoppable. Of course, I think that formula would work for almost every team in the NHL! :p I'm having real trouble staying into the...

    I'm a Daddy!!!!!

    Congratulations, to you and Paula. :D Did you get to watch her being born? I was there for both my boys, and man, was that an incredible experience. Those were probably the 2 most proud moments of my life. Oh, and remember that thing called sleep? Remember it fondly, because you won't be...

    No. Thank you! :D

    Our Mission Statement - Ratification proposition

    Gizmo, In order... I think you've misunderstood me again. I believe this issue should be put up for a vote, either with the Mission Statement in it's original form, or, as it seems it will be, in a somewhat altered form. It is there, in the VOTING BOOTH, that our "Silent Majority" can make...

    Casualties of War

    But, while the quote is cool, I actually had in mind more of a dude who would put the zombies back into the grave, not just to watch a certain dead guy. How about: "Don't worry. The TomB guardian's here and he'll remind 'em they're dead."--anonymous gravedigger [Edited by TomB on May 5th, 2000...

    Our Mission Statement - Ratification proposition

    Gizmo, This issue was brought up in response to your statement that we DO NOT speak for casual players everywhere, and your insinuation that they'd much rather we shut up about issues and just play. By voting to A) Ratify the Mission Statement, B) Revise it, or C) Denounce it, they are being...

    Casualties of War

    I didn't know you could use Apprentice for limited play. That's cool! :D Didn't CT say he had enough ideas for NB lands already? I thought the article said that mostly he needs more creatures, preferably with cool new abilities/mechanics. I think a median-size set would be best, although...

    Article Writing

    Ummm, Dune? Ideas? Do you mean for future potential Voting topics, or are you thinking about something else?

    Where is everybody?

    That's why I didn't join in, Chaos Turtle. I didn't feel like typing "TAG GUARD" in front of everything I post for the next year and a half. :rolleyes: BTW, cool Lightsaber! ;)

    Our Mission Statement - Ratification proposition

    But I don't know that Elaine Ferrao lurking on the boards occasionally constitutes WotC listening to us. By her own admission, on another thread on another board, she's DCI, not R&D, and as such is limited to what her group is directly involved with. This would preclude her acting as a liaison...

    Article Writing

    I think all your ideas are good. In fact, with the exception of Dune Echo's "Break a Card" series, we haven't had nearly enough articles posted like that. Really, anything Magic in nature would be terrific! I look forward to reading your stuff! :D

    ....Ages...

    I'm the oldest, I think, at 39. Do I get a prize? ;) Not to change the subject, but in case you guys didn't know, you can delete your duplicate posts anytime you want to by clicking on the delete post icon. Oops! :eek: Well, there used to be an icon for that. Mike? [Edited by TomB on April...

    Our Mission Statement - Ratification proposition

    Pursuant to the reply thread attached to Gizmo's article this week, by Dune Echo's request I am throwing the floor open for discussion of our Mission Statement. For those of you who aren't familiar with that particular document, it can be found at http://www.magic-singles.com/cpa/mission.shtml...

    Superfly!

    He used color in his signature, something I was not aware we could do. I immediately went to the Testing forum to mess with it myself and found that several others had also been toying with it. I read their posts, figured out how to do it, and modified my sig too. I don't know why the sigs...

    CPA Voting Subject: Reprint Policy

    Ophidian and Ura had an interesting thought in another forum on this. They suggested the reprints be foils, and inserted into random rare slots about every 7th booster pack or so. I know this would bring the "chase card" syndrome to Magic, but, judging by the lack of interest people have had in...

    FORMAT!

    Limited is probably my favorite too, for the same reason The Jackal likes it. It reminds me of the old days, when a card like Pearled Unicorn wasn't necessarily bad. It's a lot of fun, really, playing with the sort of cards you'd never even consider in a constructed deck. It makes me feel more...

    CPA Voting Issues: Size/Speed of new sets for Magic

    I hear ya', CT. I've 2 kids, a mortgage, tons of bills, and a new manager at work who believes the whole concept of overtime pay is an inherently evil thing :( . I think WotC would do us all a big favor by paring down the sizes of all the sets by trimming out the chaff cards. I think more...

    CPA Voting Issues: Banned/Restricted List

    They're also professionals, arhar, who have plenty of lead time to ferret out broken cards prior to releasing them. I too, think R&D should do a better job of filtering out broken cards. I am against banning on principle, mostly because, to me, it's stupid to sell people cards, then tell them...
