Forced Justin to talk to Martell by calling Martell a dickhead as he walked by us in the casino.

Balance was restored to the force.

The best part is that I can totally imagine this scene in my head.

[Kaitscralt]

Remind me again, that Tom Martell guy, is that the guy who is a thief or a cheater?

He's the pro who made a big fuss over Khaos' Go Fund Me

[Mcdonalds]

Did they square off in the casino and start measuring cock sizes?

LP was there, so no.

[Khaospawn]

I was pretty drunk when that happened.

[Khaospawn]

Martell apologized several times, so I guess it was a win.

The whole weekend was a win, actually. The Martell incident happened after LP and I were taking pictures with the bar people as Rick and Noah from TWD.

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.

That's gotta be more than $300, right? Foil and stamped? (was it stamped?)

[Valdarith]

It was stamped. My guess is at least $500. We'll find out soon when he puts it on eBay.

[Kaitscralt]

Stamped makes it worth less, but the story behind it might entice people to pay extra

[Valdarith]

It appears my initial estimation was WAY too conservative:

I love GoyfGate. Such a clusterfuck of over-aggression on all sides. I also like the idea that WOTC put the foil Goyf in intentionally.

[Pedrobear]

Normally it wouldn't have happened because they replace foil with normal card because the stamp does not stay well on foil layer (and other reasons I don't know).

I asked a TO about where are going the foil cards that normally get replaced for drafts such as Day 2/Top8 drafts. His answer was evasive, I pretty sure they keep it for themselves.

[Valdarith]

I also like the idea that WOTC put the foil Goyf in intentionally.

I've been contemplating the same thing. It was pretty sweet how it worked out though. Since players are told to count cards before flipping the pack over, he ended up putting the Goyf in front, so it was staring at him when he flipped the pack over.

[Kaitscralt]

Which Gate is that?

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.

What a loser picking a card that doesn't go in his deck for a few bucks.

[Kaitscralt]

The great thing is that it will soon be the most forgotten about Tarmogoyf and when the winner of the auction explains to people in years the story behind it, they will just say oh, okay.

[Thrillho]

He can buy roughly $2,900 MPR burst lightnings with that Goyf.

"So, this guy playing this game that's being broadcast online..."
"So wait, you weren't in the tournament?"
"No, like I said, it was being broadcast online and..."
"You paid $3,000 for this card, how much is it worth?"
"...$300, but this guy had a Red/White deck...."
"You paid 10 times the card's price to tell me about how someone else picked this card...?'
"Yeah but this card doesn't go in that deck, so..."
"So you gave him $2,600 because he drafted Magic poorly?"
"... Yes."

[Stardust]

It was worth it.

[Col. Khaddafi]

Well done, what did you play?

[Valdarith]

$6600 for the goyf and counting...

That's a great finish.

[Valdarith]

Now $9600 for the Goyf. Surely no one is actually going to buy this thing for that price, right?

[Col. Khaddafi]

$6600 for the goyf and counting...

Somehow I have the feeling that there's high odds that whatever final bid this will go for won't be honored, and it will be relisted.
