    CPA Censorship

    In that case, it would just become part of regular speech and accepted, kinda like the "Small Four" have pretty much become (I mean, look at the term itself. The fact that people are questioning its censoring means that it pretty much has become accepted in everyday life, hence, why censor...

    CPA Censorship

    As I said above, I've only edited a**, never the other three, so I don't know who's doing that, if anyone. I think people just err on the side of caution and do it themselves. I realize it may be part of people's environment growing up or whatever, I just think it's sad that it was so...

    Christians massacred in Pakistan

    And this is because...? :) That's because, to my knowledge, I haven't made any statements that is not common knowledge (the only ones that I can think of right now are that blacks and American Indians have a much bigger claim to grieviances against them from the US government or the US as a...

    Christians massacred in Pakistan

    No need to get your britches tied up in a knot, Gizmo. My bad... I DID mis-read what you wrote. That does happen when what you're referring to is on another page of the thread. Anyone can take figures and present them out of proportion or context. For instance, US officials have been saying...

    CPA Censorship

    I thought both do the latter.... ;)

    Is anyone out there?

    Like I said in Mikeymike's MP thread, I'm no good at Standard stuff. I'm guessing the people who usually answer that sort of stuff have disappeared for some reason <shrug>

    Christians massacred in Pakistan

    Are you basically saying that each side has its own mind made up and nothing's going to change that? To arguments where there is no "proof" available, I agree, like the destiny vs. free will argument. To some aspects of THIS thread though, people seem to be basing their arguments on perceived...

    Play Testing

    I think of play-testing as a way to test your deck without putting anything on the line, such as tourney fees or rankings (or if you want to get down to it, the spankings from your friends :) ) If you're testing by yourself and just your deck, you can "goldfish". Shuffle and play out a couple...

    Is the CPA... dying?

    Sorry, I misunderstood that sentence :) You say "far too often", yet you only mention Waylay. From my rememberance of that era, 6th rules were also debated over, yet that didn't have to do with the tourney scene specific but just play issues. So how else were they acting in the interests of...

    CPA Censorship

    That's not the impression that I was getting from the above... I was seeing that cursing is part of a person's daily language and why should it be suppressed? Not the situation in that it's used actually in context of what it actually means. Although really, what's the difference between...

    Is the CPA... dying?

    All the stuff you mentioned has to do with the tourney scene. So why wasn't this called Tourney Player's Alliance?

    Christians massacred in Pakistan

    Hey, I replied on topic way in the beginning... Zadok: Actually, you could probably consider Duke Ferdinand's assassination as a terrorist act. Maybe acts of war are considered to be made by countries or states of government? Hence, while the US was not at war with Japan, since the country...

    A Magic Suitcase question

    I thought it meant Print or non-Printable format, whatever that meant. Thanks... I guess I will have to keep them, as I have a couple of foils after all. I only have Suitcase because of its inventory ability and it was pretty much the only thing that people mentioned when I asked this question...

    Gggrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!

    Sounds like it's time to catch up on some games... :)

    Christians massacred in Pakistan

    Gizmo: Again, I'd like to see some facts backing up your statement that every(?) cease-fire has been broken by a single man shooting or whatever. And I would also like to see some facts backing up as that's a pretty bold statement. And since when has the number of casualties equal to who's...

    What's your favorite comic strip?

    Of course, although since it's in the Washington Post and not the Baltimore Sun, I miss it over the weekends (I borrow a friend's paper at work).

    MP - Dope tricks with W/R

    Like krichaiushii, I am not familiar with Type 2 or current cards all that much. Older cards is what I can offer advice :) So.... would Kismet fit in here? If you've got Smoke anyway... although for Allies, it might not be a good idea. I'm thinking the only troublesome blockers would be...

    typ 1.5 elf deck

    11 Lands? You don't have to mulligan a lot? How does it win on turn 4? It seems you're using early elves to put out more elves rather than attacking. You don't face burn or anything? With all that mana, it seems Overrun might work here.

    Is the CPA... dying?

    Isty: I don't go out to my local gaming shop and try a game of Magic, so I don't know how that scene is. But I have started playing Magic with 3 other people who stopped around Mirage. I stopped around Exodus. Thus, I have about 4-5 more sets worth of cards than they do. Now, admittedly, I...
