I realize that this still isn't moving forward. There's not a lot I need to do at this point to move it forward, but I was out of town all week and had a one-day weekend. I'll be leaving again soon. Work will get a bit less busy and then I'll get to this. I might even be able to by Thursday, but...

Well, I knew this first version of the deck was going to be a rough draft. I haven't changed my decklist quite yet, but I've come to some conclusions about this... Karador: I'm now convinced that Karador is a very good commander, maybe the very best, for attempting to use a lot of Dredge in...

Pondering a Peasant version of Commander with any uncommon creatures available to serve in the commander slot. So far, I'm thinking... Imperial Recruiter (but come on) Goblin Lackey (have a good one drop every game in a goblins deck) Trinket Mage (there are probably some good combos for this)...

While that's not what I'm trying to say, I guess my track record does indicate exactly that. But I think I've gotten better! :p I'd still try to kill me first. The Hermit Druid interactions are infamous because it's just one card that only costs two mana and one to activate. That's...

Ah, you've never seen it. These decks don't run any basics at all, so there's no "grinding your deck for a basic." The default path to victory is to activate Hermit Druid with one other creature on the board, mill the whole library, take Narcomoeba's trigger, sac all three creatures to flashback...

They won't be winning on turn anything-ish, at least not in civilized company, because they'll be immediately focused and eliminated by everyone else at the table. No mercy for five-color commander decks. Never. Not even a little bit. I don't care if it's some innocent kid that just got Sliver...

I'm a big fan of LoadingReadyRun. I think I've linked to some of their stuff here a few times. I don't post on their forum though because I don't think I have the time to get sucked into another internet message board. If this thread sticks around for a while, I'll find some time to take a...

Message board ate my first attempt at responding to this. I checked the wayback machine and found that the snapshot of the Gatherer page for City in a Bottle from November of last year (the only snapshot for last year, unfortunately) includes the change. Whenever that "later date" was, it turned...

Happy birthday!

Well, if you're captain of the atog army, I'm guessing Atogatog. The problem is, anyone using a five-color commander is to be eliminated with extreme prejudice.

Remember: if spammers do find and flood your email inbox, it's Turgy's fault.

I read the article behind the link. It might not explain this very well, but the change to City in a Bottle (and Golgothian Sylex and Apocalypse Chime) is "new" in the sense that it happened fairly recently (I don't have time right now to track down when the errata were introduced, but I do...

You do notice the word "originally" in both lines, right? Since Mountain was originally printed in Limited (Alpha), it is unaffected by City in a Bottle. But I seem to remember this change happening a while ago...

Yeah, the gist of it is that because Turgy exposed our crippling security flaw, the submission queue for articles was filled with spam, so Spiderman disabled the button for article submissions. But you can still publish articles here by sending them to Spiderman directly. Now you have me...

We've always been too small-time for that. Commander has become huge. I believe that was when I had my worst school courseload ever and was also in the process of moving. So it's not my fault! :p Pretty similar for me, actually. Well, I haven't drafted in forever and haven't really played...

I have physically constructed an initial version of the deck. I was unsure about some of the choices I made to get it down to 100 cards, but I'm going to do more testing before I revise the list... Helcomb County Municipal Lake Dredge Appraisal version 1.0 Commander 1x Karador, Ghost...

Yeah, I just bought a bunch of cards and can't afford to do that all the time, so I'll have to hold off on those. I think I'll get a good idea of how the deck runs and how to modify it without necessarily having an optimal manabase. I'm not one of those bigshot deck-pimping people, but I'll...

New article emailed to Spidey.

Part 7 has not yet been submitted to Spidey. I've been busy with my new job and I'm too tired to finish it right now. I will submit it to Spidey later today, but hopefully not too late. I do not have work today, so I'll have time. I'll also finally have time to update the Warhammer Quest thread...

I might eventually change commanders if the Karador concept isn't working here, but I think he's probably best. And I already bought the precon commander deck he comes in, so I'm committed to him for now. Well, the other side of that is that I have a larger deck with only singleton copies of...
