So "gaining prominence" means "must be stopped"? That's true of Brainstorm. It's a 4-of in almost every deck using blue cards. But that's been true for a long, long time. There are other cards that turn up as 4-ofs pretty often often. Duress, Dark Ritual, Force of Will, Mishra's Workshop, and...

Then why didn't the explanations cover that trend? It would have been easy to do.

Short answer: I was following the format to a minor extent and after this last round of restrictions will probably stop entirely. Long answer... Not too much this year because I'd been busy with school. Also, some things kind of turned me off to the whole competitive scene. Specifically, I...

That's a funny image, BPC, but it always weirds me out when the 6,000,000 number comes up. I mean, it should be 11,000,000 or so, right? It's not like only the Jewish deaths count for anything.

Why is "single" in quotation marks? It makes it look like there's another word you might choose instead...

That explanation didn't really explain anything. They pretended that the format revolved around Yawgmoth's Will. It's an awesome card, but the decks that use it frequently kill without it and they face strong competition from decks that don't use it. I mean, Workshop decks and Mana Drain decks...

Bump. Oh wait, I'm up, aren't I? And what's with the weird nonsense spam?

In my case, Windows 2000 deciding that my profile is inaccessible and creating new default profiles every time I try to log onto my computer.

Yeah, I had computer problems too. I think I've just about solved the last of them for now. But my finals are all over and hopefully I just graduated from community college or whatever and have that AS thing...

*Will continue to defend Wilhelm.*

Restricting Brainstorm won't make blue less prevalent. Mana Drain decks won't be bothered by it. This only hurts combo decks.

What happened to Si'Nat shooting at them? Did he hit one?

Brainstorm: worst restriction of all time?

Not married. Don't plan on being married.

Will someone confiscate Si'Nat's arrows already?

WotC doesn't care if they alienate older players. They want th Yu-Gi-Oh crowd. This could be a good move for them financially. Spidey: Sure, there have been a lot of changes, but something like the new card face probably didn't make many people quit. It was purely aesthetic. The 6th edition...

Um, the BSA STILL does not allow girls. There might be some confusion here because the BSA has at least one subsidiary program that is more open (to females, to gays, to atheists, basically all of those groups that the BSA excludes). But the Boy Scouts themselves have always been a "no girls...

1. I think this officially kills my waning interest in Vintage. It was a great format, but restricting Brainstorm? That's too much. 2. The mythic rare thing is just silly. I doubt it will make people buy more packs and it will really only frustrate players who want playsets of those ultra-rare...

That cannot happen. It would be totally unconstitutional. The state cannot force churches to accept people as members. And it's a slippery slope argument anyway. Just because you're worried about the "next step" doesn't provide anything either way regarding the California decision. I'm not...
