Phage, the Untouchable (for Volrath's Shapeshifter to copy once it gets through unblocked as Dwarven Pony).

The implication is that a "standard" dictionary would be an "authority." That's not really what dictionaries do. Well, maybe some really pretentious dictionary-makers somewhere think so. But dictionaries are supposed to chart how words have been and are used, not tell us how to use them. Okay...

Well, the thing about the ante cards I was referring to was that they all read, "Remove ~this~ from your deck before playing if you're not playing for ante." Some have interpreted this to mean that you can build a 60-card deck with them and then, when not playing for ante, simply remove them...

*One of Oversoul's thrashing tentacles strikes Ransac, whipping his body around so that he is pointing accusingly at Mooseman by the time DarthFerret's vision recovers.*

Yeah. My concern is that a lot of the decks where one wouldn't want to include Street Wraith are ones that do, as you say, need certain cards in the first turns. And I'm worried that, even without Street Wraith, such decks will crap out on me. Decks that are consistent and can work with all but...

Righteous Avengers (gleefully slip past the Hacked Great Wall)

Ah. Shuffling seems best. That way no one knows what they'll be, same as before.

Psychic Vortex is not bad. It's no tournament favorite, but there are several worse cards in this set. I guess I just didn't expect it to be winning on a casual site. Don't people have a sense of adventure? It has cumulative upkeep draw a card! Cumulative upkeeps usually suck. This one is good...

I wasn't trying to convince anyone to "care" about Wiktionary. I only used it because other dictionaries don't include the particular "gaming" usage of the word as it's not mainstream enough. This all started because Spiderman cited 13NoVa and myself as referring to individual cards (Tezzeret in...

It was partially tongue-in-cheek. But I think most players would be opposed to calling Street Wraith anywhere near the best card ever. But I said that because it's in an entirely different playing field than other cards. Its effects within a game are generally mediocre, although it might have...

There are no other cards, period, that cycle for no mana (except when Fluctuator is out).

*Oversoul takes a fried gerbil leg to the eye and howls in pain. He lashes out blindly with his tentacles and manages to miss everyone. But he does hit the supports for the building, compromising them. The cafeteria begins collapsing.*

Typo: It's "Mwonvuli" and not "Mwonovuli." [Edit...Fixed! :) TomB] So, a four-way tie, huh? I voted for my own nomination, but I really think this should be between the Sanctum and the Ooze. None of the other cards seem that bad. I also still don't get the whole "none of the above" thing. If...

Yes. Well, I did say something about this, but you only quoted the last part of my post. I said that with one Street Wraith, it's fairly straightforward to evaluate your hand based on the six cards you have plus the knowledge that you have one random card from what's left in your deck. I fully...

I'm not even really sure what you guys are talking about, but I probably can't do anything about it anyway, so I'll take my turn... Untap, upkeep, draw, Swamp, Penumbra Wurm, done. Oversoul: 18 Hand: 0 Library: 38 In Play: -(U, U) Overgrown Tomb x2 (swamp/forest) -(T, T, T, T) Forest x4 -(T...

Moment's Peace

*Oversoul splashes a cup of yogurt into DarthFerret's eyes, blinding him. He swings a chair at DarthFerret, but at the last second the chair slips out of his hands (yogurt on his hands made him lose his grip). Spiderman's spider senses aren't triggered because the chair changes trajectory so...

^ = Should be put in stocks. < = Made a lot of bells on the stalk market. v = Doesn't put any stock in what you're saying.
