The only subtext in my post is, "why did you guys ragequit a site you obviously prefer to this one, was shutting down your popular clan because of a couple suspensions really proving any points when you're still there as much as ever?'

[Tom Servo]

This was no exodus... This was an infiltration!

[Tom Servo]

Forum spies!

[Tom Servo]

The leakers have become the leaked!

[Kaitscralt]

It was a classic case of the buttmad's

[Second Harkius]

Why is the butt the only body part that's capable of being mad?

[Second Harkius]

Seems very discriminatory.

[Second Harkius]

Ugly Sally wouldn't tolerate such discrimination! They'd let people be neckmad, chestmad, beardmad, or even toemad!

[Second Harkius]

'Beardmad' is pretty good. If you guys ever use that in the future please give me credit.

Madding will use it in like two weeks and forget that I came up with it.

(Do young people still say that to each other? Did they ever?)

Hi, NMS. What's crackin

Just lurking. And I've never read someone saying "crackin" in internet in something not related to piracy (you know, I'm a pirate).

Don't mind me just trying out a new term I just came up with

Magic players say "crackin" all the time in regards to booster packs. I guess "openin" doesn't sound as catchy.

Oh yeah, forgot about it. Dude, I need more sleep.

I need to sleep like 20 hours per day
to be a little produtive

In reading the discussion about the Rumor Mill here I realized that the Gutter on mtgs was like 90% community and 10% mtg discussion. Which is basically the case today on this site. So, in a way, we've successfully ported the Gutter model to DTR. I know we all want to see this site take off, but most of the hardcore posters here, from the regulars in this thread to the FOS people in their clan thread, are here for the community. I'd say out of our 222 members that 50 post here on a weekly basis. That's a bit under 25% percent of all members active, compared to the 3-4% active membership of Ugly Sally.

tl;dr - DTR is succeeding from the 'community' standpoint.

I hate making serious posts like this. I'm going to make a gimmick just to deliver all
of my serious posts so I can keep the taint off of this account.

[Second Harkius]

Keepin the taint off!

[Neo Metal Sonic]

Yeah, I can say, I'm here because you guys are funny, cool and not elitist bastards. Unlike MTGS.

But we does have very good players here - when I posted in the modern forum, I got lots of helpful advice.

So, what I think, is - if we got more people to come here, I'm sure we can get lots of good MTG discussion - we just need to encourage people and advertise how friendly we are.

I never asked for help in MTGS because how complex that shit looks, with like 37634785643956437654 sub forums. And the retarded mods.

People play constructed?

I posted in EDH once or twice. I had to stop once Checkbox told me Steeple Roc is a good card.

Seriously, I just want to play mafia.

[Checkbox]

Its not a good card, but its good enough to play in my tribal birds deck.

[Checkbox]

The exact quote: "But as far as birds go, Steeple Roc is one of the better ones when it comes to combat. *shrug*"

Hardly means "is a good card"

[Second Harkius]

oh god if someone cast Steeple Roc against me in EDH

[Pendulum]

So I've been noticing a curious pattern while browsing Salvation. The FoS guys all still post there pretty much the same amount they always did, they just have their clan thread here now. You sure showed Salvation who's boss!

HOLY SHIT! 'Scralty... 'SCRALTY's burning out! I never thought I'd see the day.

[Bhikku]

quick question, not quick sure how long block constructed lasts for. if i put together a rtr block deck, how long until it moves onto a different set?

The format is technically eternal, but interest starts to wain pretty quick after the next set comes out; you can expect MTGO to stop offering it as a format outside the casual rooms after Theros comes out, and interest in it will drop dramatically when M14 comes out. That being said, even though you only have a few months of playing it as-is, the block will most likely develop into the core of the coming season, so buying into it isn't a bad idea, especially with a set like this one.

Haha, dude, don't worry about it.

Castle Raptors is better though.

[Bhikku]

Ordered my rtr block deck, now we'll see how it actually does lol.

[Bhikku]

[Second Harkius]

[Second Harkius]

Paul Newman's entire brand of foods is delicious btw

[Second Harkius]

[Kaitscralt]

Not burning out, just angrier than usual lately
