    Dave Williams suspended for a year

    Pretty much agree with EricBess. Is there an article or link you can provide?

    All you Baltimore folk

    I'm thinking about getting back into Magic and I think I have a couple of free hours next Thursday evening 9/13. Does anyone want to meet at the WOTC store in Owings Mills Mall? I only have cards from Stronghold and earlier, so it'd have to be semi-Extended (at least, what I'd play).

    RPG Chapter One... In the Court of the King

    * I love it! This is hilarious... :D * "Um, okay, since no one has any idea on what the poison is, let's start with the king's enemies. Does he have any, Ragnold and Caplan?"

    Type II circa 1996: White Blitzing Winds

    From Deep Magic by Charles Wolfe and George Baxter, 1996, pp 146-148. Changes to the Banned/Restricted Lists have been made since then. "White Blitzing Winds is a small fast creature deck. The major difference between White Blitzing Winds and a normal fast creature deck is that the Winds does...

    Oh, bully bully bullcrap...

    I hate to say it, but I'm a firm believer that you can use any card for something. Look at Donate. Look at Necropotence. Look at Juzam Djinn. All were thought of as "chaff". You can make Sorrow's Path work if you really tried (where's our founding member Ferret when you need him!). You can...

    RPG Chapter One... In the Court of the King

    "Okay, I'm a bit confused. If the poison is henten and is readily traded, how can it be made from two rare plants? Anyway, Roland and I are ready to go ask the herbalists/apothecaries if they sold any of this stuff recently, once someone straightens this out"

    Sideboard opens up our opprotunities!

    Only banned cards are the ones that use ante. So yes, four of typically restricted cards. And all Magic cards EVER printed, including non-tournament legal sets are included, so you can use Unglued and Portal. The deck is going to be judged on how fun it is to play, theme, and originality...

    I've just fought the undead mage and bear with owl's head (and owlbear for those who have played D&D). Cool you fought the dwarflord :)

    Tada! More innovations from Wiz's

    Well, I own some '80s GI Joe figures. Don't collect them or play with them anymore. And I used to have Star Wars figures but didn't realize the value of them and sold them at a moving sale :( for cheap. However, I'm not sure I'd want to see any action figures from WOTC/Magic. I don't...

    Favorite Format

    I know you're ranting, Isty, but face it, it's progress. While the rise of the Internet happened to combine with Magic, if it didn't, there probably would have been newsletters and whatnot. Not the same as "next-day" info, but you could probably get it in time for the next tourney. It's the...

    Type 1

    That's why I put it down. Got mine through the mail for $20 back in '95 trying to copy Zak Dolan's World Championship deck :) The most I ever paid for a card (and I thought it was pretty high :) )

    Reply Girl to Play

    I think he just scanned the list and saw the famous names and didn't fully read it. Personally, I don't see what the big problem is with playing them, as it seems that just because they have looks and fame, they somehow have a strike against them. You want to play someone not-so-good looking...

    Well, at least I got a mention

    At least they didn't call you a "deranged hermit:... :D Bah-dum-dum.

    Dark Ritual is gone...

    Call me optimistic, but I think WOTC will make adjustments to black so that the loss of Dark Ritual will not be too noticeable. They did the same with Lightning Bolt before it rotated out; before, when designing creatures, they had to stand the "Bolt" test: how good can they get it if 1 mana, 3...

    Usually Chaos Turtle is the man when it comes to that. I just don't have enough time to go look at other sites at link to their content or keep up with it. Zadok or theorgg might be willing to do it...

    Website/Layout

    Technically, the last wasn't an "upgrade", it was a move from one url to another and not everything got moved successfully which is why the smilies were one color for a while. But Ed's fixed it now.
