I'm bored - AMA?
The Blind Eternities forum
Posted on April 12, 2015, 6:12 p.m. by ChiefBell
I'm kinda bored so I'll do an AMA.
Might go to bed and then answer questions in the morning actually.
1) Repeated posting that adds nothing to the conversation or actively derails it.
2) No.
3) Too uninformed to have a serious opinion. I suppose though, that if every other country has a nuclear deterrent then they should too? Especially given that the US helped them to set it up in the 50s to try to stop mounting destabilisation in neighbouring states. But I don't know much past that so ignore me.

And AMA means...?
Also, quite honestly, how are you bored? Is the stupidity demonstration going on in the Modern forum not enough to satisfy you?

Ass
No I wasn't surprised.
Lager, ale, stout. I think. Don't know what ipa is.

Is your alcohol tolerance as high as Epoch's or mine?
April 12, 2015 6:27 p.m.
1) Do you like me?
2) If you could time travel to any point in magic history, what would it be?(no you can't take stuff back with you so no 100000 alpha black lotuses)
4) what was your favorite standard?
5) What was your favorite deck ever?

Ohthenoises - No. I rarely drink. When I do it's vodka based cocktails though.
Asher18 -
I have no idea who you are.
Zendikar.
Inn-RTR
GB/x in modern.

American English?
I suppose it would count as a dialect of English.

Last published work you read for enjoyment rather than for work or school?
Do you prefer to read or watch movies/documentaries/a person in action to obtain knowledge?
When was the last time you touched paper MTG cards?

If you had the power to ban or unban a single card in Modern and Legacy and EDH, what cards would you ban/unban?
On a scale of 0 to bored, exactly how bored are you?
Want to recommend me some cool stuff for my Modern decks that isn't as janky as the current decks?

Computer and cell phone brand preference.
Also, that is not a question.

How viable do you think UW Miracles could be in Modern?
April 12, 2015 6:50 p.m.
I'm going to bed now but I'll answer every single question tomorrow.

Should I be made an admin to make up for the confusion a little while ago? And if not for that reason, is there any justification for making me an admin?

AMAs are, I would argue, more useful for asking people personal questions than generic ones? But I guess you guys can do what you like haha.

Dekordius that depends on your personal philosophy.

I need ChiefBell to think for me, man. Don't you know anything about AMA?

sorry, but chief has to answer that. Don't you know anything about AMA?
you had better laugh at that.

GoldGhost012 - I don't read too much for pleasure, unfortunately. I know that's an awful thing to say. I play D&D so I read the guides for that haha. I read a bit of hitchhiker's guide as well. I don't read much - which is awful. I ought to. If you can recommend me good books to get back into reading I'd appreciate it.
To obtain knowledge I like to read or watch first and then do it myself afterwards. I spent almost all of university just reading though. I'm comfortable with scientific papers and books. However I have come to associate reading with work, due to this.
When I went home I touched my Abzan deck. That was on Saturday. I have this Path to Exile with a picture of a worm on it instead of a cat. Not sure which set. I like that card.
lemmingllama - I'm unsure about banning or unbanning but I'd like to see a reprint of Flametongue Kavu in modern. I really want wizards to push red as a midrange colour, not to force it into aggro. If I could see something unbanned - I'd like to see Dig Through Time tested for a 12 month period. I don't play Legacy or EDH anymore, but I don't believe EDH should have a banlist based on player enjoyment.
I was super bored last night but I'm at work now so not anymore.
I'm currently testing Esper control. It's not awful. Try Bant midrange? It's not a bad deck. Lots of impressive beaters and control spells available. You can build a decent T2+ bant deck without too much effort.
ThatJunkMage - Computers would be Apple for recording software or self-built for gaming. I have no preference for hardware - both AMD and Intel are fine in my book. I kind of dislike Intel for supporting Israeli apartheid and war crimes but meh, that's just me.
chrishuffman95 - Not viable without Sensei's Divining Top. I can't think of many cards that let you both see and manipulate the top cards of your library in modern. Without that element miracles isn't good.
bigguy99 - No you should not be made an admin due to a funny mistake. I guess you're a nice guy who's fairly active but admins have to super, super active.
Dekordius - We exist to reproduce. That's the main biological imperative. Existence to breed existence.

1: how do you define "shitposting"?
2: are you and epoch conspiring against me?
3: what is your opinion on the US raising economic sanctions and Iran's nuclear program?
