I've played Battletech, and while I'm saddened to see it go I have to admit I didn't buy into the last expansion at all. WotC really screwed up when they made Arsenal so overpowered :(. You'd have thunk they'd have known better by virtue of their experiences w/Magic, but that wasn't the case. I...

Thanks Dune!

... but I think Dune Echo, or The Baron, would be better choices. Dune's been in contact with Elaine Ferrao already, and she's the one who has admitted to lurking occasionally. The Baron's our official PR guy, so it's only logical that if Dune cannot do it, he should. But will that catch WotC's...

Just a couple things, Hellion. I'd say either Dual lands OR Painlands, not both (preferably Duals), and, even though I dig the card I'd have to say no to Enlightened Tutor. Too many of today's abusive combos are fueled by Enchantments to reprint it. Outside of that, I think you're list is great! :D

I just set up the Voting Booth with the 3rd topic we had discussed a month or so ago, on WotC's banning policy, and I was wondering what to set it up for next week. Dune Echo had a list we compiled a while ago, but since he hasn't posted anything for general discussion lately I was wondering...

Is that the card you're thinking of? :D

I don't really like the concept of creatures with echo in a 'Geddon deck. It seems to me you'll be paying echo at times when you should be blowing up the lands. You'll run into trouble if you don't 'Geddon when the time is right. I don't like Blastoderm for a similar reason. You should 'Geddon...

HOUTS, I think Scrub's Corner would make an excellent addition to our Weekly Articles section, and they don't even have to be posted on a weekly basis (Lord knows I've missed THAT deadline often enough!:rolleyes: ). I haven't read any of your stuff from MtgNews, but it sounds like Zadok has, and...

Don't take it personal, Ura. From what I've been told, when your post doesn't get any responses it generally means that A) Most of us agree with what you said, or B) No one disagrees enough to feel the need to post a response. Don't sweat it. :D

Gizmo, Point taken, but, to be honest, Duel's statement here was the first outright negative response we've had to the idea of passing on to WotC the results of our casual polling. Not to take anything away from what he said (and I wish he had said it sooner!), I think it's already been...

I see things improving dramatically once "combo-riffic" Urza's block rotates out. All that is currently evil in the game is embodied in that set (well, almost all ;)), and I, for one, will be glad to see it go. Only now you're saying Invasion will be broken too? :confused: (I seem to be using...

I find it hard to believe that only Gizmo and Seeker of Truth want to have input into how the Mission Statement is to be re-written. C'mon people! 14 of you voted to rewrite it into something you can agree with, but only 2 of you responded with what exactly those changes should be? :confused...

Excellent advice too. I deal with the glasses thing myself, and I know it can be a problem. :cool: Tips? Well, I'm not a great draft player, but I've placed well a few times. I try to stick with 40 or 41 cards, only 2 colors (if possible), 15-18 creatures with a decent mana curve, 6-9...

OK. It's time, I think, to open this up for discussions on the changes needed to the Mission Statement. I know quite a few things were proposed in the topic on the Ratification, but I think the Baron's looking for something a little more focused here, so he doesn't have to sift through all the...

Istanbul, I'll play ya'! Do you have ICQ? If you do, go ahead and add me as a user. My number is 60577320. We may have a little trouble hooking up though, since I'm a 2nd shifter and I'm usually not online till after midnight, so if you're looking for a game check out...

I'm sure Apollo was just giving you a hard time. ;) Seeker, I've been here a while, and I would like to welcome you to our humble abode. We're glad to have you aboard! Oh, and don't mind Orgg. He's been MIA for a while (I think he did a Rip Van Winkle, personally ;)) and he seems a bit...

I believe the Petal was banned because of Bargain/Necro Will decks able to Drain for a quick kill turn 2-3. I don't think anyone really used the combo you spoke of, though it does seem even more evil. I still think you could've fixed the Memory Jar problem with errata, by changing the word...

:D

:confused: Umm, Orgg? Did you just wake up? From a reeeeaaaally long nap? Were you abducted by aliens or something? Time travel? Where ya' been?

Where ya' been? :eek: We've missed you buddy!
