fresh start. GO

Admin Edit: Please post Magic-related discussions in separate threads as appropriate. This thread is for non-MTG or very casual discussions; we want to foster new and continual game discussion across the rest of the site as well.

@CanadianShinobi: I was going to make a pun about ccanada, but I figured that would just be cold! (see what I did there? ...no? ok....)

I'm just ignoring it.

Why do you guys think I've been so inactive? Seriously?

No one gives deck help now, every thread is just a back and forth of "My opinion is this!" "Well you're wrong because _" "Well you're wrong that I'm wrong because _".

We have so many people who think that they are awesome, I honestly miss the days of "What are these point things?" "Talk to yeaGO, they've been broken forever." Back then people were helpful and I got a lot of thought provoking insight into the game, now it's a lot less so. Now I just find myself facepalming a lot.

I have bad oppinions myself.. and I dont know everything.. Just that is enough to keep me from risking the ire of my peers.. Im gonna try to follow your lead there Ohthenoises.

March 30, 2015 8:35 p.m.

It does get monotonous after a while. But isn't that sort of to be expected? I mean, people are stubborn.

Also, I'm utterly bored. Anyone want to play a modern game on untap?

I've made situations bad in the past, I know that. Usually I'm trying to get two parties to see each other's side and it blows up in my face but sometimes I get baited into a flame war. Doesn't happen often, but it happens.

The best advice is this: People in glass houses sink ships.

March 30, 2015 8:41 p.m.

I thought the best advice was: "Give CanadianShinobi a cookie."?

Actually, "Give bigguy99 a lot of free stuff," seems to have been something a lot of people are recommending to their family, friends, and intellectual acquaintances. I'm here to spread the message.

What a shame. My Q&A question, which was asking about using the metaphorical Wrath of God against the metaphorical Thrun, the Last Troll, has been removed due to not being Q&A. But I got Epoch's attention, which is probably good. That Thrun should seriously be removed. He's insulting so many people and ignoring anything constructive.

I think Im in love with my new jank deck.. o.o Seriously want it to be viable.

Had a field day at my LGS's dollar rare box.

...for just $8. Not the best deal, but a pretty damn good one.

March 30, 2015 9:40 p.m.

JexInfinite says... #18

Got out of that pretty well.

March 30, 2015 9:44 p.m.

bijschjdbcd says... #19

I made out pretty well from Box hill Jex.

March 30, 2015 9:49 p.m.

JexInfinite says... #20

Yes. Yes you did.

March 30, 2015 10:26 p.m.

enpc says... #21

bijschjdbcd & JexInfinite - do you guys go to school together or something?

March 30, 2015 10:31 p.m.

bijschjdbcd says... #22

Na man, I just came down to Melbourne for a PPTQ on Saturday and we caught up.

March 30, 2015 10:33 p.m.

enpc says... #23

So you're in Victoria but not Melbourne?

March 30, 2015 10:34 p.m.

I was thinking about doing scale mail for a con or something, but then I realized it's expensive as hell.

March 30, 2015 10:36 p.m.

bijschjdbcd says... #25

Judging by your familiarity with the terms I assume your Australian?

I live down by the border, Albury Wodonga.

March 30, 2015 10:39 p.m.

enpc says... #26

Ahh, makes sense. Yeah, I'm from Brisbane.

March 30, 2015 10:41 p.m.

CuteSnail says... #27

You guys should take a look at Financial Fallout of Pod Ban. I need as much help as possible.

March 30, 2015 10:47 p.m.

Ryotenchi says... #28

nighthawk101 Id want that japanese signed one.. o.o who cares if yeh can get normals for .75$... Id pay 3$ for signed if they were in front of me.. Grats dude. XD

March 30, 2015 11:02 p.m.

JexInfinite says... #29

But we could go to school together. hint hint bijschjdbcd should move to Melbourne, even though it's pretty expensive and he has friends where he lives, I think

JexInfinite says... #30

Ryotenchi I value Japanese cards a fair bit more than English ones. And signed cards are slightly more than Japanese ones.

March 30, 2015 11:19 p.m.

Ryotenchi says... #31

JexInfinite I like me some Japanese ones too. :3 Signed is just a special thing, isnt as big a deal.. but a signed japanese one.. HOT..

March 30, 2015 11:22 p.m.

JexInfinite says... #32

Imagine a signed Japanese Karakas. That would be super swag.

March 30, 2015 11:38 p.m.

JexInfinite That would probably be the price of ten goyfs. It's as if you were to put down 25 one hundred dollar bills on the kitchen table instead of the card. Damn that's crazy.

March 30, 2015 11:40 p.m.

JexInfinite says... #34

I have my goal in life, now. A Japanese signed Karakas. Nothing else matters.

Wait, what if I got an entire D&T list Japanese and signed?

March 30, 2015 11:44 p.m.

enpc says... #35

You know Karakas is only in English right?

March 30, 2015 11:45 p.m.

JexInfinite Then you would basically be playing with a Ferrari.

Didgeridooda says... #37

What about Italian enpc?

March 30, 2015 11:53 p.m.

Ohthenoises says... #38

That was handled as gracefully as I can muster. Go go my rank title....

March 30, 2015 11:53 p.m.

Don't celebrate until he responds...

March 30, 2015 11:55 p.m.

enpc says... #40

Didgeridooda: my bad, I forgot they printed the Legends set in Italian too (derp). The official listing on the Gatherer page only shows it in English, thus the comment. But yeah, too early for Japanese me thinketh.

On the topic of Karakas though, I saw an (albeit old) article with one person saying that they thought Karakas should be unbanned in EDH. The logic? "Its basically the same power level as Maze of Ith..."

It hurts my head.

March 30, 2015 11:59 p.m.

JexInfinite says... #41

Ohthenoises I have no idea how you did that, but I support completely.

March 31, 2015 midnight

enpc Could you link that article?

March 31, 2015 12:01 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #43

article ?

I vote that Indepenent is warping the format of the forums. :3 Hehe

Ohthenoises says... #44

A man can hope FAMOUSWATERMELON. It seems to have helped.

I know y'all are venting about IM and venting is good but I think with a little bit of kid gloves we could really get him to where he needs to be to be contributing to the community in a positive manner.

Besides, would any one of us feel ok if we stumbled into a thread where people were venting about us?

(I'll preface this by saying I'm not religious in the slightest but...) "May he without sin cast the first stone"

March 31, 2015 12:07 a.m.

enpc says... #45

linky link

Its from 2008 (see what I mean by old) but I still hear the same arguements from time to time.

March 31, 2015 12:12 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #46

I need to start selling popcorn every time this happens. :3 Srsly!

Ohthenoises

Everyone needs a haven. Most people just choose this thread.

And who knows? maybe he's just one of those guys that likes the attention regardless?

"Bad publicity is still publicity" and such.

March 31, 2015 12:17 a.m.

Ohthenoises says... #48

I know but still, I think instead of damning him we need to be helping him.

March 31, 2015 12:19 a.m.

sigh As graceful as always Ohthenoises. I need to start reigning my temper in... I feel like an asshole now.

March 31, 2015 12:20 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #50

Must be.. I mean, not that Im knocking or bullying him, but I get this sense of a MASSIVE EGO from him.

I mean this: "Man it's true I've been trying my hardest to give you guys some pretty deciet builds. Just so you guys could have some fun playing em or checking what beats what."

Thats suggesting that all the attempts myself and others have expended trying to show him MTGTop8 builds and optimal this and that means nothing cause his stuff is obviously the shit in his world..

Tis why Im not even trying anymore.. but dont see any reason I cant discuss the sillyness. :3
