    Twenty Things That Were Going to Kill Magic

    Sorry, that was pretty long, but there were several different little bits and I didn't want to miss anything important. This one'll probably be long too... Uh, what? I don't think so. I said not a bullet point list. Then you said bullet point. Then I said not a bullet point list. Maybe you...

    Twenty Things That Were Going to Kill Magic

    I'll get to the part about reading the article momentarily. To clarify the things related to 6th Edition... It might help if you'd stop strawmanning me then. I've said multiple times, but I'll repeat it again: I'm not making a quantitative comparison, nor do I think it's even possible. Well...

    I'll be emancipating that dwarf from the common pool, by the way.

    All common deck "5c-Jund"

    Your additional stipulation of a 75-card deck would also make it harder to devise a powerful combo deck capable of going off quickly, but I think I could pull it off. My first bet would be High Tide...

    Twenty Things That Were Going to Kill Magic

    Is that what you meant about "substantial" rules changes? In aggregate, there would have been a lot of rules changes between 1993 and 1999. I thought you were saying those rules changes didn't matter, but now I think you're getting at something else... I was saying that the early changes are...

    Technically, how old is the CPA?

    If you search using Google, or better yet the wayback machine, you'll find that discussion on Waylay's erratum crops up beginning July of 1999. There's also this thread: http://www.casualplayers.org/forums/threads/our-first-issue.405/

    Technically, how old is the CPA?

    Well, Ed's profile shows him as joining July 28th, 1999. I don't remember all of the founders and some of them were gone before I ever showed up. But I'm seeing that most of the founders seem to have join dates at the end of July. The people I know about with "CPA Founder" as their titles are...

    So I got a "vent" about something...

    That's interesting. I'm rather obsessed with combo decks and, many years ago, used to bring combo decks to multiplayer games all the time. Despite that, I really think that anyone bringing a combo deck to a multiplayer game, and the same goes for a really explosive aggro or aggro-combo deck that...

    Twenty Things That Were Going to Kill Magic

    Your link itself confirms what I was saying, that there were rules changes before 6th Edition. I wish I could remember this stuff better, but to be clear, 5th Edition really did update things with series and batches. I don't know if the term "batch" appeared in game rules in 1st edition...

    The House of the Rising Sun - The Animals (1964) Well, your "There's a Hole in My Bucket" is from the 18th century, much older than anything else I can remember seeing here. I could easily have forgotten something else that was older still...

    Twenty Things That Were Going to Kill Magic

    In 5th edition they use series and batches. I don't remember if 4th edition did or did not. 3rd edition, if I remember correctly, did not. Really, there were a lot of gameplay rules changes. But yeah, I don't know what the best source would be for that stuff. It's mostly too old for CrystalKeep...

    Tribal Games Version 2 administration

    I haven't updated this thread with the tribes played in Game 15, even though it's been quite a while. My apologies for that. I was lazy. Spiders, cats, snakes, and bears are currently unavailable. Goblins, elves, and zombies are banned. All other tribes are available.
