    That's the whole point, if you're building a U/W deck, using Fork is pretty much a mistake in the first place unless you really tinker with the mana base (i.e. use the appropriate dual lands or whatever). There's a reason why everyone doesn't use 5 color decks consistently with the best cards...

    If you're building a deck that's heavy on the double casting cost, you simply include more of that color or add cards such as the fetch lands to increase your chances of getting that double mana on the second turn, if that's your goal. I'm not saying Fork needs to go in every deck, but I don't...

    "Throwaway line" is my pseudo-keyword for your one-liners where an explanation would be great to explain your initial line, yet I have to post to get it. Like I said, I don't find it very hard to get two colored mana of the same type in any deck (if you build it right; having 16 land in a...

    Notice about all the games I'm in or running

    We're expecting our second child within the next 3 weeks, so when he/she comes, I'll be away for two straight weeks. I'll see if I can check in from home but not making any promises :) So don't worry if I "disappear" all of a sudden.

    It should have changed, I was only 32 a couple of days ago :)

    I didn't think double mana requirements were that tough back when Fork was king though... I don't think they're that tough in general.

    Heh, thanks. That's okay because I usually do the birthday shout-outs anyway :)

    Misleading ads in banners

    The two programs complement each other since "the experts" have found that neither catch 100% of the stuff out there. I don't think even running both catch 100%, but they catch about 99% of the stuff (each alone is maybe 90-95%).

    That's okay, just not sure if you thought it was my turn since so much time had passed by and you've been on :) I assume you take three then unless you have something during the rest of the combat. Done. DF Life: 1 Hand: 1 In Play: (U, U) Island x 2 (T, T, T) Swamp x 3 Warped Devotion...

    Yet another example of a throwaway line that needs further explanation that I have to ask because you didn't simply include it in the above. Why was the double red requirement a problem?

    Anyone seen the "Power ninth edition" poster that's been circulating around?

    Well, as I said, I think they all buy "at the same time"; there's no one time when players buy and then collectors buy or vice versa.

    Social Security, or is it?

    Of course not. Usually he speaks in front of "supporters", not in front of dissenters. It's the same with his Social Security barnstorming across the country - the audience is mostly, if not all, comprised of Republicans and/or people who are receptive to hearing about the changes in the first...
