Bedridden with a severe cold all through thanksgiving. Still recovering. Barely got my energy back enough up crawl out of bed.

Time to go work at target for black friday. Zalgo bless America. (Chugging a monster now.)

Sorry to hear that VA. I've always hated black friday.

Well it's not all bad. How was everyone else? Enjoying the holidays? Hope you and your families are well.

Yea, had a nice and quiet turkey day. Just lounging about til I head off to fnm in about an hour.

November 27, 2015 3:36 p.m.

My thanksgiving was OK. I was really busy with homework though. Teachers at my school use breaks as an excuse to give more work, even though they use the time off.

On the bright side, my girlfriend found this when looking for a new mouse. Made my day.

Owlteeth says... #6

Sounds fun. My school actually gave less homework than normal as my teachers were all waiting for break to start and didn't want to grade anything over the weekend.

Today, I created two separate food monsters. Scrambled pancakes and a Wendy's Junior cheeseburger inside a Double Stack.

Well, my holidays were good, got together with my old playgroup and played a couples goes of EDH with Planechase. One of the best times we've had in a while.

As a side note, wish me luck at my LGS's EDH tourney tomorrow. Hopefully I pull another expedition :P

But really, Oloro Storm one last time and I hope he chooses to pilot another deck. It was not fun at all (for that game).

About to watch all six Star Wars movies in a row. :)

kyuuri117 says... #10

Played four EDH games tonight, from like 4:45 to like 10:30. Very, very happy with the Gruul deck. Has some weaknesses, obviously, but it's a ton of fun.

I've decided to make Ezuri Infect my next project.

November 27, 2015 11:13 p.m.

I'd like to bring something to everyone's attention:

jelly feathers.

wtf.

I've been finding a lot of really sexy digital alters lately. Wonder if I should upload them on here >.>

Overly sexualized women ahead Show

November 28, 2015 11:40 p.m.

I really love the diaochan and nin.

sassy = sexy.

November 28, 2015 11:42 p.m.

Ashiok has no gender. I see no way you could over sexualize it without defeating thee whole purpose of "genderless nightmare thing."

November 29, 2015 8:32 a.m.

Coinman1863 says... #15

Well to be honest the Nin one seems the most accurate to the card...

In other news, I thought I was buying the Planechase 2009 planes for $70, which is a good deal, and though a miscommunication bought all the planechase planes for $70.

O_O

November 29, 2015 8:51 a.m.

Coinman1863 Is that good or bad?

Patriarch's bidding

Patriarch

Depicts woman

Wut?

November 29, 2015 10:06 a.m.

Coinman1863 says... #18

TheNextRedDude, that is insane. I previously bought just the 2012 ones for $60, and one of the planes from 2009, Tazeem, is $20+ alone. So it was an extremely good deal.

November 29, 2015 10:35 a.m.

@VampireArmy clearly the patriarch wanted her to break the news to keep up his appearance.

kyuuri117 says... #20

This site is so dead lately, it's kinda boring : /

And, I managed to KO two peeps in a five man EDH game Friday Night with Price of Progress. Was... just as glorious as it sounds.

November 30, 2015 12:26 a.m.

kyuuri117 says... #21

Oh, and speaking of Femme's alters post, does anyone know of any good paper stock that could be used at home? Something that could just fit into a card sleeve? I've got like, a bunch of awesome card alters saved, and would love to pimp out some EDH decks while also putting the cards away so that they don't get damaged.

kyuuri117, in my experience, the thick Sappi Opus Gloss paper is fantastic for this stuff.

Look to the MTGS forums about using digital proxies. Oh, and don't forget to check out my list of alters. Around 1.5k alters recorded on there.

November 30, 2015 6 a.m.

Didgeridooda says... #25

The only alters I like are the actual card painted. I wonder how much it would cost Klug to alter Merieke so her face is not jacked up. Also borderless lol.

Runlue says... #26

Ayyyyy I'm back.

And I have a question.

So I want to buy a laptop, because I have a $100 OfficeMax gift card, and it's Cyber Monday.

I've been looking at the website, but I have no idea what anything good means.

Is there a good laptop that's within the $300-$400 price range?

November 30, 2015 5:14 p.m.

filledelanuit says... #27

What are you looking for Runlue?

November 30, 2015 5:26 p.m.

Runlue says... #28

lordoftheshadows Mainly a school laptop, but also a good laptop for editing videos and what-not. Mainly for the latter.

November 30, 2015 6:44 p.m.

You'll be challenged to find a good-quality laptop for under $500 imo.

In other news, I hate indefinite integrals. They aren't even hard... it's just that I spent the past several months learning how to do the exact opposite. The struggle is real.

November 30, 2015 8:54 p.m.

Ohthenoises says... #30

Shit, who was it that I was supposed to get their battletag to play hearthstone with? I don't feel like sifting through pages of JC to find it.

December 1, 2015 12:48 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #31

It generally costs around $100 or so Didgeridooda. Also, there is this: Merieke Ri Berit.

kengiczar says... #32

kyuuri117 - Those are awesome!

December 1, 2015 7:50 a.m.

Didgeridooda says... #33

That is actually a big improvement, but needs more skulls. I need to figure something out for her though. She is just bad. The only alters I would use would be for commanders.

December 1, 2015 9:17 a.m.

Scorprix says... #34

What if it was like Deathrite Shaman but had a good art of her in the middle, and the skulls glowed blue and white rather than green? That whould be sweet IMO.

December 1, 2015 12:14 p.m.

Didgeridooda says... #35

That would be.

Femme that alter is nice, but makes me think more of Rubinia Soulsinger

December 1, 2015 1:15 p.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #36

That's just the style of artwork, Nouveau style referenced off of Alphonse Mucha.

And the two Rubinia alters I have from Klug are ... Rubinia Soulsinger and Rubinia Soulsinger.

December 1, 2015 2:55 p.m.

I don't suppose any body would be interested in some Jolly Cooperation, would they? I'm trying to rank up in the Heirs of the Sun covenant in Dark Souls 2.

December 1, 2015 9:04 p.m.

Holy crap. Do you guys remember Vince from all of those infomercials? Look at this under "Legal Issues". Gawddamn...

Scorprix I thought the Anna Nicole suing was pretty funny actually. XD

December 1, 2015 10:23 p.m.

kyuuri117 says... #40

I am 100% convinced that this guy is a fucking psychopath. And why the fuck would his friend go along with this? It's fucking sick.

Youtube "Prank". One "friend" goes along with this psychopath's idea and convinces his other friend that they were legitimately abducted, and then they "execute" the friend. This should be illegal.

On that note, according to the comments, the guy's website was hacked and he was threatened by the hacker group Anonymous, that if he didn't take the video down within hours, he would be seriously fucked.

December 1, 2015 10:37 p.m.

Scorprix says... #41

Yea I saw that, but TBH I thought it would be interesting if not for recent events. At the moment the video isn't exactly appropriate, but had he posted it in a couple months it would be fine.

Btw Anonymous was mad because it looked like an ISIS killing.

December 1, 2015 10:59 p.m.

Scorprix says... #42

Fuuuck. I took a long run today with some friends, but I tripped and fell on my hand. Everything's fine except my ring and pinky fingers are completely swollen up.

Ohthenoises says... #43

You know, I don't condone Anonymous because technically they are terrorists in their own right but you know..... They seem to have an awful lot of enemies in common with myself. As long as they keep their shit pointed towards someone who deserves it thoroughly I'm willing to ignore it.

Kinda like the Hell's Angels forming a perimeter around veteran's funerals to prevent WBC people from being seen/heard.

December 2, 2015 1:44 a.m.

VampireArmy says... #44

I just played through this and i am thoroughly disturbed. I had no idea what the fuck was going on until i looked it up just now. Fallout is hella dark

December 2, 2015 2:08 a.m.

Scorprix says... #45

In what way?

December 2, 2015 2:36 a.m.

VampireArmy says... #46

I mean seeing visions of sacrificial rituals to cthulu then having the lights shut off immediately after then being swarmed by a ton of zombies when you turn them on is pretty messed up. Not to mention how random it was considering I'd been mowing down raiders the entire time up until then.

December 2, 2015 2:42 a.m.

VampireArmy says... #47

Mind you this all takes place in a abbandoned mining quarry underground

December 2, 2015 2:47 a.m.

Oh, yeah, I've heard about that. Did you get the knife at the end? Something like Khremve's Thumb or something like that.

December 2, 2015 3:12 p.m.

I have been trying to get summoned to fight the final boss of this game for hours now. It is so boring. I've had one guy summon me a half dozen times and I just told him to stop summoning me after he tried to get me in a gank squad on a guy he wanted revenge on.

December 2, 2015 3:48 p.m.

VampireArmy says... #50

I did. I also had trouble sleeping last night
