I was banned for nearly three years and there is a clan thread that's both active and where I have a post in. Step it up, [The Crafters].

The Sage is occupied with the unspoken
and acts without effort.
Teaching without verbosity,
producing without possessing,
creating without regard to result,
claiming nothing,
the Sage has nothing to lose.
@Ephara: I'm pretty sure they worded her ability like that to make it more balanced and prevent her from becoming Glimpse of Nature on legs. Yeah, that wording takes me back to Ice Age, but I guess that's what they have to do.
I was thinking something like this:
At the beginning of each end step, if another creature entered the battlefield under your control this turn, draw a card.
But this doesn't combo with Kiora's ultimate...
@Amadi: It's been... definitely a while. Lots of things have changed while you were gone... [Soundtrack] is no more, unfortunately.
[EDIT: Sorry, it just occurred to me that you might not recognize me. That's because I'm a completely different person than who I was trying pretending to be before.]
There are so many facets to Touhou and the fandom, that there is something for just about everyone.
My avatars and sigs have mostly been from Touhou.
It's rather ridiculous just how much Touhou there is, especially considering it was just one guy who was fond of drinking who created the whole thing in the first place.
@Amadi: It's been... definitely a while. Lots of things have changed while you were gone... [Soundtrack] is no more, unfortunately.
[EDIT: Sorry, it just occurred to me that you might not recognize me. That's because I'm a completely different person than who I was trying pretending to be before.]
Aurora Illumina, right?
Soundtrack dying is a shame. My absence from MTGS did have the upside that I had more time to focus on music, so maybe I would've had something worthwhile to contribute. That being said, a lot of the clans came and went, like [Natural 20] and [Planar Chaos].
I'm more surprised at [Called] ceasing to exist. I don't even know how that could happen. It's.. The [Called]! I'd say there were as old as MTGS itself, but they were in fact older.
Glad to see [The Crafters] is still alive, though.

It's not the fashion to start a new thread and archive the old one every 500 posts anymore? Alas, the times have changed.
You can blame me on that one. I prefer one big thread that you can search through as opposed to a bunch of little old threads here and there. We keep it fresh by changing the name of the thread every month. (See Post #1)
@Amadi: You recognized me as Aurora? I guess my sig is the biggest indicator of this... (My username on Sporcle is still AuroraIllumina, and Sporcle doesn't have ways to change that.)
But yes, as you know I still make music quizzes. I do write music too, and I've been trying to write lyrics (though that takes a while for me). I don't have a singer yet though; I need a singer to "be Aurora", essentially (and this means she needs the necessary physical abilities too).
@Touhou: I would like to get into it, but I don't honestly know where to start. It's an extensive fandom.
@Amadi: Welcome back. It has been a long time.
@Geek Fandoms: Well, anime, figure collecting (I just got my 7-11 RX-78 Gundam), Star Wars, and roleplaying. And Magic: the Gathering of course.
@Pat: Hmmmmmm.....Metal? Use some sheet metal or some aluminum and burnish it. It's beautiful and schnazzy with just a little work. You can make it look all 15th/16th century with it. Rivets, woodwork, roughness. Make an awesome chest, sans router. Hew some logs, sand the insides, hinges. Bam.

Well, Born of the Gods seems to be lacking for me... Wannabe Dark Confidant... Meh... (I never liked Dark Confidant to begin with) Cycle of rares that's going to require triple color... Meh... Giving your opponent a choice between effects... Seems terrible... Only nice things so far are gold Gods with combined devotion of 7 and Kiora.
How good do you think the tribute monsters are in Commander?
I thought they won't be that good since players would more often than not simply give the creature the counters, leaving a big vanilla (or French vanilla) creature. But then there's also the possible political aspect, so I'm not sure...
DQ's working on another story? How many unfinished stories do you have now?
Tribute Phoenix seems decent. Vanilla 5/5 flying for 4 in red would see pretty heavy play in most metas. This is slightly worse, but I suspect still good enough. Unlike most "opponent chooses" cards, tribute is all upside. Fanatic of Xenagos will see heavy play too. He's super good.
I think you're right about Commander though, Sharpie. The ones we've seen so far are way too vanilla to make a real impact. Probably all of them will be.
Got Smash Up for Christmas. Have you played that one, Redwood? It's a pretty fun game. We must have played a couple dozen games over the few days I was at my parents' place. Picked up the expansion once we got back home and it's lots of fun too. Zombies vs. Pirates vs. Ninjas vs. Dinosaurs vs. Communist Bears! What's not to like!
Yeah, Standard is what I'm talking about. Won't see play anywhere else.
It might not see play immediately (lots and lots of removal is being played right now), but I think it'll be a heavy hitter at some point in its Standard life.
I heard it went up on SCG for $1 and quickly sold out. Relisted at $5 or something. Someone over there must have missed that it was mythic.
You can blame me on that one. I prefer one big thread that you can search through as opposed to a bunch of little old threads here and there. We keep it fresh by changing the name of the thread every month. (See Post #1)
Curse you, Kankennon! Curse you and your practical ways!
I did have to search up your posts in some of the older threads. Afterwards, it occurred to me that I could've searched through the name change thread, but that would've been cheating.
But yes, as you know I still make music quizzes. I do write music too, and I've been trying to write lyrics (though that takes a while for me). I don't have a singer yet though; I need a singer to "be Aurora", essentially (and this means she needs the necessary physical abilities too).
Good luck on finding one, though good vocalists are hard to find on the internet. Not because they're all that rare, but because everyone wants to work with one.
I grouped up with a bunch of people and formed a thing called The Hai, where we make music and stuff. I also managed to release an album: I Just Like Magnets, which took me long enough. I also got to University of Jyväskylä to study musicology. Working for my degree, now.
You may not know me but I was the Izzet rep till their demise and moved to this clan. I look forward to working with you here side by side.
Yeah, a lot of clans seem to be dead. There were even some clans that started and died in my absence. I remember Izzet, but I can't say I particularly remember you.
So, is the soul market even alive? I thought it was dead even before my absence.

@Amadi: I'm looking for a singer in real life. I could try finding one at school, but most of us are just too busy to have time to commit to being in a band right now, so I'll probably just have to give it some time.
I'm more surprised at [Called] ceasing to exist. I don't even know how that could happen. It's.. The [Called]! I'd say there were as old as MTGS itself, but they were in fact older.
As I recall, at least some of [Called] had a bit of a falling out with MTGS moderatorship and were either suspended or left out of spite or both.
@Touhou: I would like to get into it, but I don't honestly know where to start. It's an extensive fandom.
As far as games go, Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, Imperishable Night, Ten Desires, or Double Dealing Character are all decent start off points. As far as the fandom, heck even I don't know where to start decently.

I was sort of thinking about that, but if I did I'd go for symbology.
If I went down that route I'd probably do Nitori's hat or possibly even the key. Other options would include Mamizou's leaf, Youmu's Hakurouken, or a silhouette of Kogasa's umbrella.
It's rather ridiculous just how much Touhou there is, especially considering it was just one guy who was fond of drinking who created the whole thing in the first place.
