Hey, that reminds me, I have me a good little question:

Would you guys recommend seelling the $5 and up singleton cards I don't use? If I do, the money will go towards buying parts for a PC.

Or since I am getting into EDH, should I keep them? There is always the chance I'll need them for a EDH deck in the future.

What would y'all do with them?

It's too bad that the new UW control list lost in the quarterfinals but it's still an awesome list, def gonna try and build it.

whats up all you salty sailors? I just got back from sucessfully voltroning a Jeleva while milling everyone out.

I think one of the best things i've ever done in EDH was plopping down a Nev's disk, inconspicuous like, and then a few turns later slamming down a Mycosynth Lattice after floating ten mana. After everything on the table was gone, put JTMS into play, and proceeded to mill out whoever was recovering lands the fastest. Was awesome.

My favorite commander moment was when I played a Phyrexian Gargantua every turn for several turns until it eventually killed me.

If you haven't seen it, go watch round 10 of the SCG Standard Open that was this weekend, Brad Nelson vs. Kevin Mcleskey. Mcleskey is playing Jeskai Ascendency Tokens with the new Jace, and it really showcases this new Jace's power. For two mana the card can be fantastic.

And the turbo fog deck is hilarious.

You guys advertise medication here in the US. It's weird, man.

July 20, 2015 9:51 a.m.

Where would our economy be if we couldn't tell consumers how fucked up they are?

July 20, 2015 9:55 a.m.

filledelanuit says... #15

The US is pretty fucked up at times. I'd love to go to college in canada.

Noises what are you doing in court.

July 20, 2015 9:56 a.m.

ChiefBell says... #16

Cos like in Europe all medications are prescribed by doctors; it doesn't come down to what you want or don't want, it comes down to what you need or don't need. Therefore adverts strike me as weird because they're like trying to persuade people to buy things they most likely don't need and aren't qualified to decide whether they should have haha.

July 20, 2015 9:59 a.m.

ChiefBell says... #17

We don't pay for medication though so there's also zero incentive to advertise anyway. The way money goes into the pharmaceutical industry isn't from consumers, it's from governments, in Europe.

Nef says... #18

Well to be fair Chief, a lot of the advertisements say "Ask your doctor if (insert medication here) is right for you."

Ohthenoises says... #19

Sometimes I work here lol.

We are installing the audio recording system in Rochester NH. It's going well

Nice.

Ohthenoises says... #22

My wife and I are going to take over my parents' business.

Last week we were in Manchester NH doing those installs and somewhere before that. (They kinda blend together.)

Growing up it was kind of funny being able to answer the question of "where are your parents today?" With "well, they were in jail yesterday, they are going to be in court today, and tomorrow they will be heading to the mental institution."

July 20, 2015 10:35 a.m.

That sounds fantastic.

Nothing says first day of camp like wearing sandals and stepping in a fire ant hill and having your right foot twice the size of the left. Chilling at first aid getting some stuff

Tibs, they would work in those places.

Just visiting if you will.

July 20, 2015 2:11 p.m.

Oh I see lol

HARDsofty says... #32

I am extremely caffeinated and have eaten all the primary colors, today alone.

What's to come after?

July 20, 2015 3 p.m.

@6tennis, sorry for very delayed response. I was playing the pre-con Ob-Nixilis Deck vs. 2 blue players and a Jund player, and it kept getting bounced by the blue player or killed by the black player. At some point, I also resolved an Infernal Offering to flicker it. I think I had drawn cards and lost life every turn in that game after I had mana to play cards.

July 20, 2015 3:25 p.m.

So, I just approximated the prices of my seven current EDH decks. They are around the same price together as Epoch's one by itself. What am I doing with my life?

kyuuri117 says... #35

It's so hot. Long Island isn't supposed to be 95 degrees.

July 20, 2015 5:05 p.m.

6tennis says... #36

Dood, Connecticut is actually really nice. But our dorms are sweltering.

July 20, 2015 5:09 p.m.

HolyFalcon says... #37

Kentucky isn't supposed to be 95 either. Good thing I'm inside with air conditioning all day and its raining rn!

July 20, 2015 5:09 p.m.

@ItchiUchiha117: The TappedOut calculation is somewhat inaccurate. The paper list is worth $4,600.


It's 93 in Delaware.

July 20, 2015 5:20 p.m.

79 in Minnesota.

Fortunately, I'm inside with my cards so life is good.

July 20, 2015 5:22 p.m.

It was 105 earlier today where I am... Thank god for AC.

July 20, 2015 5:27 p.m.

Oh. Well. Still have some more work to do then. I mean, I am missing about most of the mana base in one of my decks as well as quite a few better versions of cards in a few others, so I guess I'm not even close to the end of this ride into wonder and poverty.

Also, it reached 99 in Seattle yesterday. This is not why I live here, damn it! Bring back the rain and gray skies, please.

July 20, 2015 5:33 p.m.

@ItchiUchiha117 yeah, the weather here is not what it should be... It was 100 a little farther east out where I live.

July 20, 2015 5:36 p.m.

I forgot how fucking hot it gets in July. Worst time ever to have a birthday.

July 20, 2015 5:39 p.m.

Happy B-Day tibs?

July 20, 2015 5:41 p.m.

Yeah, man. I mean, at least I'm only a thirty minute drive out to the Sound where I am and maybe five minutes from a lake. I can only imagine how much it sucks to not even get that.

July 20, 2015 5:41 p.m.

Ohthenoises says... #46

Wife's birthday was the 18th Tibs and mine is 31st. We feel your pain.

July 20, 2015 5:42 p.m.

kyuuri117 says... #47

Yea I live like 3-4 minutes from the sound, I'm on the north shore of LI. So getting to the beach is easy. But then you've got to deal with sun burns.

And I'd rather be hot without sunburns than hot with sunburns

July 20, 2015 5:48 p.m.

Famous: not for another week, thanks though

The worst part is I want homemade apple pie instead of cake for my birthday but the apples aren't ready until August :'(

July 20, 2015 5:49 p.m.

Meh, I'll forget by then XD

July 20, 2015 5:49 p.m. Edited.

kyuuri117, man, I'm a ginger. I know the pain of sunburn well. Shit sucks. I've burned through clothing. The fucking burn was textured.
