The only Dan Brown book I read was The Da Vinci Code. I had low expectations from the start because it was kind of hyped and was mildly impressed. Maybe not to my taste or something, but I didn't think there was anything inherently bad about the writing.

I read Congo and it was decent, although from what I've heard the movie is nothing like it. The movie The Andromeda Strain seemed alright too, so maybe I should read that book...

As in the only language that can be used in official state business, right? If it's actually forbidden to use other languages in the buildings themselves, that's unconstitutional. I was looking through that New York Times article, and when I got to the end, I did this: :eek: WTF Florida?

My father said, about my vote choices for both president and governor: "I thought I raised you better than that."

It also hoses every other card that takes advantage of lands being snow-covered. I don't know how many there are, but every single one is better than Snowfall. And like I already mentioned, I consider Snowfall worse than Great Wall because Great Wall will sit there indefinitely. Even if all...

Why would you play regular Islands if you know that Snowfall is in your deck? Also, that's dubious usage of the word "effective."

*Retrieves any unbroken arrows. Also, I'd like to do an arrow count for all of our bowmen just to see what kind of shape we're in for keeping up our firepower in fights like these, as they seem to be pretty numerous.*

Oh man, that deck was/is awesome. That's too bad about it being hard to find.

Not just "probably." That's all it can do. If it didn't have its own cumulative upkeep, then sure, it could keep Illusionary Forces out longer. It could still hypothetically do that with lots and lots of Snow-covered Islands out. But with lots and lots of Snow-covered Islands out, you're going...

Like what? Lessening the effect of an opponent's Power Surge?

*Continue trying to pick them off with arrows.*

Sure. I'd use a collector's edition Mox Sapphire as a proxy for the real thing in a proxy tournament rather than just a Plains with "Mox Sapphire" written on it if given the choice. It's cooler. But I remember seeing a collector's edition Mox Sapphire selling for $40. I wasn't even willing to...

The collectors edition cards? What a silly idea. For some reason, they used to actually be worth money, too. That's probably not true anymore. Not too many people are interested in stupid fake versions of old cards, even if they're "official" fakes.

Yeah, so have I. :rolleyes: I went with Snowfall because of the the upkeep. If it didn't have an upkeep on its own, it would potentially be useful with Ritual of Subdual or something. But with the upkeep, it's just too ridiculously bad. Melting is awful too and I'm not surprised to see the two...

So it's the 28th...

Yes, I am done for.

*Arrows*

Time travel? Edit: Also, happy birthday, although I think technically I didn't post until the day after... I'm annoyed that I had to come back and edit this because I actually edited it within seconds of posting it (I had accidentally hit the post button). For some reason my first edit didn't...

I like Deathgreeter. I think this deck can totally work, although what I'd really like is something to get more use out of Deathgreeter and those others, not to mention whatever cards you sacrifice creatures to. My first inclination would be mass generation of tokens, but that has no synergy...

Anything good?
