    Unofficial CPA Notables Forum

    This CPA Notables voting thing is really bringing community to this place. It has and always will be my dream that this site is our virtual second home and a safe haven for those MTG'ers who don't feel like they quite fit in any of the other MTG sites. God forbid I should ever stop playing MTG...

    ESPN2

    I recorded Worlds yesterday on ESPN2. I liked it. But, has anyone noticed that ever since John Finkle has gotten thin he's also gotten alot 'cockier'? I don't know John personally however, on the video from the '98 Nat'l Championships he seems really reserved and even noble. I've heard stories...

    Magic Players just wanna have fun.

    The Invasion pre-release is in less than a month, yes, that's right, less than a month and I am already ALL GEEKED UP about it (pitiful, ain't it?!). I need a life. The much anticipated day of the pre-release of any and ALL of the sets is the same. The week before I can hardly concentrate, the...

    'tis the season and , a concern.

    Question. Can anyone enlighten me as to how the Magic "seasons" work? For example: Late spring there is a lot of emphasis on T2 tourny play because of the second expansion of a core set. And, as a result, there are nationals. So, the late spring is T2 season, right? In the winter it seams like...

    I took a bite of the forbidden apple......

    ....and I am ashamed :( I took a NET.Dec (MBC's All Blue Rising Waters Deck) and am going to play it at this saturdays PTQ in Pittsburgh. I beg for everyone's understanding, I tried to put together a rogue deck (Counter-Burn in MBC and yeah, it sucked horribly). I would appreciate some remarks...

    Anyone else currently working on their Masters Degree?

    Earlier this summer I completed four more classes towards my masters degree in Music Education, OY! Is anyone else putting themselves through this kind of hell?

    mtgnews message boards; not my cup of tea anymore.

    I don't know how many of you post over at the mtgnews message boards, but lately it's been very unfriendly, IMO. There's this dude named DUke that thinks I hate him or something (I don't) and no matter how much I extend a friendly post to him, he chews me up oneside and down the other. My posts...

    Band Camp

    Wahoo! It's that time of the year again where I have to convince 95 kids that they love to be out in the sun working twice as hard as the football team (I'm pusing them towards "Corps" style) and make them think they like it. Truth be told, most of them like it (as I did when I was in my HS...

    X-Men

    I haven't seen it. Have you? Is it worth my time and effort and money? I used to read the X-men stories way back when their HQ was in Austrailia (sp?) back in the '70's. Is Jean Grey cool in the pic?

    Best Gratuitious "Babe" Art

    snort, grunt, arrrrgh (beating chest senselessly). C'mon, most of us here at the CPA are guys and I for one am usually very politically correct when it comes to treating women as equals. But deep down inside of every guy is a low life pig (AND YOU KNOW IT!). So, just for a moment, shed your good...

    In the future, I want MTG to...

    ...still be around. There's not a single person, who plays MTG, that hasn't at least thought once, "I wonder how long this will last?". This toipic has been the center of many heated arguments and beloved testimonials. Hmph, some have even quit in anticipation of this games demise, remember when...

    Remember when...

    It's human nature to keep hold of our past, for some of us, it helps define who we are, for others, it's a way to enjoy a moment over and over again. Magic certainly has been around long enough to have created a fond history within all of us here. Me? I can remember when some company was making...

    Great Work Orgg!

    Now tell me, was that not a great step towards exposure for the CPA or what!? (I'm speaking the Orgg's interview with MTG's CEO Peter Adkinson) If other Magic websites have done interviews with CEO's before, I never knew it. I'm sure we're not the first but golllllllly, that's one of the most...

    Civility and Magic

    Ask yourself these questions: -Do you walk into your local card shop or play group and make it a point say, "Hi" to everyone you know? -Do you make it a point to befriend a "new commer" to your play group or local card shop within 10-15 min. of their arrival there? -Do you actually give away...
