Hey you sexy bitches!

Havent had much time to post or play over the past week. Member of my team at work moved so I got his job duties and his desk and, possibly, his promotion track. Now I just have to not fuck it up for 6 months going into reviews :P

With states coming up this weekend, Don't know if you guys know about this site but I've been using it for a while as the break downs are very simple and Dee has written some good code for analyzing results.

http://mtganalytics.net/about

HIs algorithm even weights decks and cards based on last results showing, level of tournament, how far into the season we are. Its mad handy. Also super helpful for identifying cards that just keep going up.

With all the data being crunched over there, what do some of
the best choices look like for this weekend? Control did not place last weekend interestingly enough. . . R/W for chains and burn?
Some men just want to watch the planes burn. . .and most of them are here.

Glad to see you back, dax!

Question for you: is there a way to change this forum from tracking logins by IP? I log in from different IPs constantly, and it logging me out every single time is super annoying.

It tracks IPs at login 'cause spambots are very aggressive at making accounts and posting tons of threads. I don't have trouble with it logging me in/out when I switch between my phone/laptop/desktop. That's super weird, post about it in the tech issue forum and Scumbag might be able to help you out. Maybe whitelist all of your IPs.

I'm on a public network so I get a new IP every time I move around in the building (multiple wireless access points), for the same device. Will make a thread in the tech forum.

The login cookies should probably track you by the PHP $SESSION variable instead of by IP.

Who else is going? I'm hitting MD champs since I missed the "20XX's" over the weekend.

@Helios: On your end, not much you can do. The login logout tracking is all serverside with its own rules. The only thing you could possibly do which would be a pain the arse is to remote to a static IP that has the site running and just interact with it remotely. You have a weird side alternative of letting your browser remember your name and password and enabling autologin if you have it or something like LastPass/OnePass for your device.

Would love to play in a States event this weekend but live in Southern Cali. Would be an 8 hour drive just to play in the Cali States. Funny
thing the Arizona States event is much closer with being only a 4 hour drive.

I miss having States in my backyard as well. Phoenix Games was literally walking distance from the house I grew up in, and they always hosted at a local hotel in Orlando. Now I'd have to drive almost three hours to go to States. Yuck.

Argument is the perfect time to strike with maze's end
In response, activate Alchemist's Refuge, cast Amulet of Vigor. Resolves, cast Door to Nothingness. Amulet trigger, untap Door. Show you the door?
If you have that much mana ham, I've already finished the race. Nice try though, you probably just got lost. :)
I have a Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker with Illusionist's Bracers on it, so I cast Zealous Conscripts, steal your Maze's End, tap my Kiki targeting my Conscripts to make two copies of Conscripts. The copies ETB, one steals another land and the other untaps my Kiki. I repeat until I have all of your lands and I can
show you the Door AND the Maze's End.

How does it feel?
In response to conscipts kill Kiki Jiki?


Image
AWW SHIT. KIKI DIES TO REMOVAL!
Thats what you get when you rely on fragile creatures to win rather than the one land who rules them all.
but neither valakut nor keldon megaliths are in standard.

You do need to try to gay it up a little more.

You're like the least gay member of this clan.

And that's counting the fact that you voluntarily have sex with men.
