There's just something about "using" the community that doesn't sit right with me. I could never accept so much money under those circumstances, especially when I've already said I'd devote some to charity and the money is essentially based on a windfall and is likely intended to go towar...

He's selling a story and people are paying for it. No one has a gun to their head demanding they top the last bidder. Given the combination of backlash from members of the community and the effort to donate any of the money to charity at all, good for him.

No one at my table attempted domain and I cringed as a 13th pick Vengeful Rebirth and myriad Rampant Growths, Skyreach Manta, and Tribal Flames circled the pod. But my path was etched in metal and also the aforementioned Cranial Plating.

Guy has a 100% ebay record but only 47 auctions.
At $3100, it was almost certainly not, but a lot of up-bids were by 4 auction hucksters.

If this Pascal Maynard guy has financial issues enough to rare draft in a GP top 8, perhaps he should get a real job, like writing articles that teach adult men how to play a children's card game.
I don't think financial issues would cause you to leave a guaranteed $300 on the table.

Pascal Maynard just rare drafted a foil Goyf in P2P1 over Burst Lightning in the top 8. He was drafting a RW double strike deck.
Weird how a guy wouldn't want to hand someone $300 in guaranteed money over for a removal spell in a draft format overloaded with removal spells.

I feel like you're judging a 12 year-old with the expectations you've set for yourself or another adult you're interacting with.

Also your assumption was he sat down and said "I am 12 and teach me how to play." What happened was he sat down and hadn't drafted before, tried to draft, did it wrong, and a fat Asian man across from him started shouting at him for having never drafted before and not intrinsically knowing...

Also, you're saying this about a 12 year old. 12 year olds get a pass because they barely have a decade of life experience under their belts.

DotP is one of many entry points for the brand.
