Smilies are useful. On my own, I would never have guessed that Spiderman went from really sad to really happy in the space of his own single sentence.

What's Going On - Marvin Gaye (1971) I always think of these songs together. About six years ago, my dad was involved in a business that I helped out with pretty frequently. Anyway, I was helping him load or unload some warehouse stock and I saw something that quoted Marvin Gaye's "What's Going...

I tried to think of a witty rejoinder to this, but I couldn't. I guess I don't have any response to your lack of response.

Yeah, I hate to drop him, but we don't really have any indication that he'll be back any time soon. It seems like most of the people that show up, even if they post a lot at first, disappear suddenly after a while. Perhaps he'll be an exception and show up any minute now...

Anton: I don't know why anyone would call regular paint "special anti-invisibility paint." Maybe it's magic? Perhaps you should look for something invisible to test it on. Arcttus slaps Anton upside the head. Arcttus: If we could see it, then it wouldn't be invisible, idiot. Kelgar yells for...

Ride My See Saw - The Moody Blues (1968)

Untap, upkeep, draw, Swamp, attack Killer Joe with Goblin Lackey. Responses?

The change from elder dragons as exclusive commanders (or generals) to legendary creatures in general predates the Magic Online version. It was (and in some places still is) called EDH because the elder dragons were the original basis for the variant, but that was a long, long time ago.

I stand by what I said. I'm aware that they changed the name. It still started out as a variant with physical cards. The words "variant" and "format" probably have some relevant connotative differences here, and off the top of my head I'm not completely sure how I'd parse differences in...

This is starting to sound a lot like a replacement for Extended. True, and my deriding Modern for banning a card every time a deck does well won't hurt either. At least, I think that's the case. Who knows? Maybe if I point out that Preordain is banned, Modern players will have seizures or...

Is it? Are there throngs of newer players that are into Modern, the format that considers Cloudpost too good to play? I'm sure Wizards of the Coast does maintain data on this sort of thing and will eventually make whatever move they think would benefit them the most, but they seem to have been...

Yeah, I wonder about that. Commander seems to have received some official recognition, but I'm not sure what the full extent of that might be. It started as a variant with physical cards, but Wizards of the Coast does now have Commander as a Magic Online format. Commander outside Magic Online...

Kelgar considers Carrow's question... "I am not sure. Some holy artifacts, for example one blessed by Sigmar, might burn evil creatures that attempted to handle them. If the orcs found such an object, perhaps their shamans could coat it with some magical substance to prevent that, probably...

Modern's sets are everything after the 2003 card-face change, which includes several sets not on the Reserved list (Modern allows Eighth Edition onward, while the reserved list only goes up to cards from Urza's Destiny). Me calling it lame is perhaps a bit tongue-in-cheek. When Modern arose some...

Driven by You - Brian May (1991)

Commander is not regulated by the DCI. That's why changes to Commander don't appear in a DCI announcement. Anyway, I'll belatedly voice my approval of the Vintage change. I'd really forgotten that Regrowth was restricted in the first place, and it certainly didn't need to be restricted anymore...

Arcttus looks at Dorgath, Carrow, and Kelgar... "Human? Does that mean he's not hu—you know what, nevermind. I don't want to know." Dorgath finds no hidden compartments or exits beyond the two that can already be seen. Carrow checks the desk. It's rather messy and he doesn't see much of...

Blue Collar Man (Long Night) - Styx (1978)

Incidentally, there's a group that has created designs for guns on 3D printers.
