Back from the weekend... TomB: I wasn't complaining about your house rules part; I agree with it. I was just mentioning the discrepancy between the title and actual subject matter :) And I just felt I had to comment because you mentioned Savannah Lions as part of white's "flavor" and I...

Well, I thought this thread was going to die or get moved but since people keep posting here.... Spiderman is my favorite superhero and my sig says it all.

I don't know if this is where I should put comments on articles; do I send a note privately to the author? Or post it here? Anyhoo, an observation and a comment on TomB's article. Observation: I thought it interesting that you commented on Mike Pratt's article about his title not really...

Well, I'll add my voice of agreement to Wizard and Chaos. It does take a lot of thinking to get a deck to a turn < 3 kill. However, it does suck to play against one in a tourney because you paid x dollars and you're getting crushed. You really can't see how your deck performs (if you...

I'll have to disagree there, Baron, so far the best song by TMBG is either Birdhouse or Mammal (although Palindrome is catchy).

Baron: I agree with what you said two posts ago. I don't think it's an excuse, but as more and more sets come out it's harder to catch degenerate combos. I think we pretty much agree that Dark Ritual wasn't a big problem around the sets of Revised and Ice Age when there wasn't a lot of good...

:) Well, I keep thinking I'll get back into it. It's more a matter of not enough time right now (when will there ever be?) and my group has disappeared due to various reasons. And as I mentioned to Ferret, I was getting back into Warhammer Fantasy. But I always think there will be a time...

My group once did a "Reverse BackDraft" where we "line drafted" (if you want more details on THAT, let me know) the worst cards. Then we gave the mess to out opponent, built a deck of it, and played. It got kind of annoying because you had to rebuild the deck after every game (we played each...

Yeah, don't you have to work on Monday, Chaos Turtle? :) I'm just five hours ahead of you here...

Well, subscribing to the "should play all cards" theory :), if a card is too powerful to have four of them at least see if it's still broken if only one is in a deck. It might increase the luck factor but I look at it as being my choice for putting the card in there and doing it to myself...

I was doing pretty much what Ed is doing: sorting by color, then creatures and non-creature spell, and then alphabetically. I also used to divide my collection up into Standard and non-Standard. I was going to put my cards into Access because I was starting to do some trading and needed to...

After last year's Invitational, my group tried to get cards together to do the Limited Crap but couldn't get enough of them to do it! We were too stretched out in card sets to get them all for enough people (I think it was only four people). The thing that probably did it was the inclusion of...

<taking the other side for a moment> Sometimes, Baron, a color can get TOO good at what it's supposed to do. And people can get used to it. If Ancestral Recall had somehow made it up until now, people would be used to drawing three cards for one and if it was banned now, they'd probably...

Here goes: It looks too choppy; the head definately looks like it was pasted it. The cape is flat too; needs shading or something.

Blame or praise, take your pick :)

Wow, the things you learn... I thought TMBG did all original stuff...

Gizmo: Well, I guess you could take it as a compliment :) I was just trying to say that you have NEVER sounded like the typical pro who might a report on the Dojo. As I said before, I had no inkling of your ranking and I just thought you were very analytical of cards and decks, just like the...

Yeah, but being articulate makes for a better impression.

You know, Zadok, I'm going to disagree with you :) just because I refuse to believe that Trix was the only viable combo deck in Extended. Despite my not playing in the format and not knowing decks, there has to be others (I'll throw out Pros-Bloom and Oath and Rec/Sur as candidates).
