There is always some card that I am totally obsessed with and believe should be in every deck ever. Last year it started out being Griselbrand. I mean, look at the guy. Yeah, Yawgmoth's Bargain was OK, but it wasn't a huge freaking demon. But more recently I've fallen for Young Pyromancer aka...

Raised by Wolves.

And it was released almost a year before Magic: the Gathering was. How prescient!

I'll applaud Turgy's efforts to find an Island.

In that case, Philip Pullman was actually hoping they would finish the series. He was never very clear on why. Maybe he just didn't care how much the movies would deviate from the books if it meant more people would be exposed to the series. Presumably some people read the books after seeing the...

This isn't the first time they were supposedly going to make a movie based on Magic. I'll believe it when they actually make the movie. Well, I also predict that if this does actually get made, it will be a bad movie. That makes three of us so far... ...but are the reasons that I suspect it...

Not sure where this comes from, since it's seriously never been the case in Vintage. Well, the "format with turn-one kills" is technically true, but it's also been technically true for lots of formats. It's been possible to get first turn kills in Standard sometimes in the past, but it's rare...

It's a recent development, but the extent to which it differs from counterfeiting in the past is unclear. I've seen conflicting reports as to just how good these fakes are.

Well, there's now considerable furor (on sites other than this one, anyway) over counterfeit cards made by Chinese printing companies. I've seen a lot of speculation that the changes to the frame are an attempt to make counterfeiting harder, as well as arguments on what better counterfeits will...

Well, I've had a bit of a change of heart. I didn't get very far, but I'd added some cool stuff to these decks. I went back on those changes and decided to keep everything Standard-legal. This is new territory for me. No seriously, in 16 or so years of playing Magic, I've never built a...

That's a scary thought.

Bah. In my day when I walked to school it was five miles, in the snow, uphill both ways, barefoot, carrying my little sister.

I hope the kids don't have to take Amtrak to school, though... :p Yeah, I'd guess that delays because of "cold" would more appropriately be attributed to ice.

It seems possible. So far I haven't seen much, but it's still very new. Mostly there's been whining about it and people making fun of the people whining about it, but there hasn't been much reaction overall, either because people haven't seen it or because the changes are pretty minor anyway. I...

I was going to ask that myself. I've seen old thread in which both of them were posting, but they have such similar names and also they have the same birthday...

Ah. Good to know.

Did the second article submission not go through? I thought I submitted it on Sunday...

Over here, in addition to not presently being cold enough for snow, our school buildings are heated on the inside through marvels of engineering.
