DUke: Now that I can agree with. But let's take it a step further... suppose you don't know if there's a way to make your deck stronger (yet). You either try to think of a use of a card or think there's an even better or alternate way to improve a supposed winning deck. So you build, test...

I don't think it's accurate then, as when you click on the Daughter M94 story, the articleid is 998. So if we're only two away, it's probably going to be one of SeFRo/Notepad's stories...

That would be Perish and probably a no-no... :)

The fountain is just a small circular base with a spout coming up the middle. Nothing elaborate or special. The tapestries don't look "old" but neither "new".

Sorry, I still disagree. I can see many deckbuilds where you are not giving your opponent a "deliberate chance to win", yet can still be casual. Not using Affinity to its cutthroat edge, but just using some of the Frogmites and Artifact lands (who knows, maybe it's an amphibion deck), for...

This is an example of faulty logic. It would work IF casual play solely meant take-backs. But it does not. Take-backs is just one facet of casual play (and I am hoping, one of the non-gray areas). But just because MTGO enforces the rules strictly, and there are players claiming to be...

Well, on one hand, you run the risk of having a dead card in your hand if no one is playing that color/land type (unless you Hack or Sleight it). On the other, it can be pretty devastating to a player if he's suddenly wiped out, which really isn't in the spirit of tribal (I don't think...

A good question.... :) Upon closely inspection, you recognize the maiden to be Princess Argenta. You don't recognize the warrior however. Patrick checks out the fountain.

I'm not sure how it proves your point. It just tells me that MTGO strictly applies the rules. But like I said, you can't get much more casual than allowing take-backs or applying the rules judiciously in a game IRL.

I think no one would have noticed if you didn't say anything... :D I'd have to check the actual number we're on, but I'd guess you'll hit it :)

I was thinking of the format where each player opens a booster, picks a card, and passes it in one direction. Then, when that booster is exhausted, they open another and pass it in the opposite direction. I didn't know sanctioned events go 123, in which case your statements make more sense...

Well, if you've been reading about it on other sites, then you know more about it than I, but I disagree about the "minimal support" statement until I see it. I mean, from what I understand, each expansion is going to be "dedicated" to the guilds it showcases. And in booster draft, doesn't it...

While Ransac cringed at finally being cornered by Oversoul, he was pleasantly surprised when Oversoul gave him a hug instead and said, "Let's be pals".

Not really. It more depends on how affluent your area is and local supply and demand. Whistle or hum?

Cugel vigorously searches the room while Rondo keeps a sharp look-out.

How about we toss the color-hoser question up to a vote? I agree with the first two examples of Flashfires and Eradicate but not sure about CoP's... have to think about that one. Also agree about banning Coat of Arms. I'm using Apprentice to build my deck since I don't have any of the...

Not really... there are some out there (and maybe here) that suppose that their view or definition is absolute... I also disagree about the rules. They may be "absolute" but it depends how you apply them. I don't play MTGO, but does it let you back up or take plays back? I know IRL, in...

It'll take a couple years, but maybe the prices would settle down after they leave Standard... ;)
