Are you serious right now?

That's like you saying you have a nice house and me replying "Hah! It's a modular home you fucking plebeian!"

Dude, it's a fucking parasol, Kazekiritard. It's got an internal framework, you can clearly see it.

Playing EDH with a friend last night.

End of their turn, Overloaded Cyclonic Rift.
My Turn Price of Knowledge.

He proceeded directly to scoop phase.

I love my Nekusar deck, I get to run so many weird cards.

Do you have a Cat? Or a Snake? Or whatever the fuck Koffing/Weezing is?

No, I cyrifted at the end of their turn.

Ah, yeah, that makes more sense.

Also, hey guys! It's my 500th post!

Just stomped Chris Davis in Pauper, pretty sure I saw that deck James was talking about with the Voyaging Satyr, Arbor Elf, Utopia Sprawl + Verdant Haven nonsense.

Unfortunately that deck can't beat six consecutive turns of countermagic.

zemanjaski · Postby **zemanjaski** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 7:30 am

I am conflicted, hahaha, :')

Did he talk to you? If not he was recording a video.

Alex · Postby **Alex** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 7:32 am

Yeah. I asked him what his win condition was supposed to be, he told me it was Skyfisher beats, lol.

zemanjaski · Postby **zemanjaski** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 8:16 am

For shame.

Another deck that auto-loses to turn 4 Spire Golem with Counterspell up

Alex · Postby **Alex** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 8:18 am

Kor Skyfisher is pretty annoying though, trading with Delver and blanking Spire Golem for a while is actually relevant. It was another one of those matchups where I was glad I had the 2 Spectral Flight in the mainboard.

That's sad. If it wouldn't be 90tix to build the electronic version of my pauper deck I would be sitting on so many packs given the crap people seem to want to run. If they make modo for tablets i'll consider it, because I could earn it back pretty easy. I'd wait for tablet so I could play more places and actually have a life while doing it.

Kazekirimaru · Postby **Kazekirimaru** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 8:23 am

Are tablets even worth the money? Everyone in my family has one. Even my niece and nephew.

Alex · Postby **Alex** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 8:24 am

Delver didn't flip? NP. Me and my Spectral Flight will just build our own wings, How To Train Your Dragon style.

We have an iPad 2 and an iPad Mini in almost constant use. Our laptop is gathering dust (although it is slow as hell and 5 years old), and only used when I update my Magic Suitcase collection. Tablets are totally worth it.

An iOS version of MODO would be great. The only thing stopping me from getting MODO right now is our crappy laptop, and I have very little use for a new one right now.

Kazekirimaru · Postby **Kazekirimaru** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 8:35 am

Windows has a tablet out, right?

I'm really not fond of Apple save for the fact that it runs Logic Pro.

zemanjaski · Postby **zemanjaski** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 8:36 am

About Windows tablets: Probably, I don't follow the non-Apple tablet market very much, since I have no interest in it.

Pretty sure Windows tablets are actually the hipster ones...because no one uses them.

Looks like I'll have mtgo up and running tomorrow.

I played a similar deck last year in Standard, which is why Spectral Flight came to mind immediately when I was putting the list together.

re: Anime - I'm not a big fan of modern anime, but I think that's mainly a generational and cultural influence thing. I grew up on some of the "original" anime--Speed Racer, Kimba, Marine Boy and others--but my strongest influences by far have been western animation. Rankin/Bass did give us a few gems such as ThunderCats and SilverHawks that gave us more eastern flavor, but Filmation and Hanna/Barbera were the big players in our Saturday morning and after school cartoon lineups. I later discovered some of the greats like Vampire Hunter D, Neon Genesis Evangelon and Ghost in the Machine through DVD rentals, but most of the recent series are lost on me simply from lack of exposure coupled with little discretionary time relative to my broad interests. I've definitely
enjoyed Cowboy Bebop whenever i've caught the odd episode on cable, but I'm far from invested. Still, I'd agree that like everything else, there are gems and there is trash...I've certainly seen more than a few anime shows that I have no use for whatsoever. But then again, I can say the same of most of today's western animated series...good storytelling has given way to idiot-level humor.

re: Costumery - Windstrider and I along with our squeezes and cronies will be doing a bit of dressing up this weekend. Nothing on the level of cosplay convention stuff, but we are attending the Longest Night Masquerade Ball this Saturday. The theme is along the lines of Casino Royale, so I think Dan is of the same mind as I in going Bond-style villain, while the ladies seem to be leaning towards femme fatale...darn the luck.

I will definitely post pics after the event...it
should be quite a blast.

re: Pauper - format has always looked fun...I may jump in either on the zeman train or with Infect.

Platypus · Postby **Platypus** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 9:13 am

good storytelling has given way to idiot-level humor.

And the best animated idiot-level humor has already been made. Nothing beats Ren & Stimpy, even after 20+ years.

Platypus · Postby **Platypus** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 9:15 am

About Magic Online...the start up package seems to include a bunch of cards (the sign up page mention over 650 cards). What are these? Can they be used in Standard Events? And Pauper Events (2-mans and 8-mans) have the same price support as similar Standard and Modern events, right?

The above questions about MODO went unanswered, so let's repost them.

No, they're gold bordered if I recall correctly. You do get some "new player event tickets" though, which you can use to play in some phantom events that do pay out in real prizes, so there's that.

The scene with the singing angel v. Asuka is gut-wrenching.

Best / worse scene in the entire series.

zemanjaski · Postby **zemanjaski** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 9:31 am

Funny how everyone in the west likes Asuka, everyone in Asia likes Rei; signifying the approval of their respective societal values; and everyone hates Shinji, who is a turd.

I watched it a looong time ago, but I can appreciate the humor. I think it has it's place in the history of the genre, but by today's standards it is pretty laughable.

I have an android tablet and I am all but glued to the damn thing. My development rig is on the fritz (something is burnt out on the motherboard), and my laptop doesn't exist, so I have been doing everything on either my phone or my table, and it's not been too bad.

Adding a singleton Whirlpool Rider to MUC, because going deep.

Or Tolarian Winds.

We'll see.

zemanjaski · Postby **zemanjaski** » Tue Dec 17, 2013 10:00 am

Just beat a guy who drew natural tron all three games, and I am the lucky one.

Also, NGE is the best anime ever and I won't talk to anyone who suggests otherwise.
