But Killjoy, what is the MTGS Invitational?
Basically, it's where players vote for 12 players they'd like to see play in a small (12 player) game. The catch is that these 12 players have to have played in a game within the last calendar year.
Oh! That sounds pretty boss. Who's gonna host it?
Well, while people are voting, we're gonna need a volenteer. Preferably someone who likes to host, and probably won't wanna play.
Say I wanna do it... Are there any restrictions to the kind of game I want to make?
The game should be medium to low complexity with no gimmicks allowed. This is to ensure that mechanics aren't the focus... the game is.
Help! I got voted in, but I really don't wanna play!
Fear not, avid forum-goer! If you are chosen as a player, and if you don't wish to participate, just respond to the PM I will send you to inform you that you were chosen saying as much. It's that simple!
Hey, what's up with that huge list of names there?
Well, that's where YOU vote for your fave players. You're supposed to vote for your 12 favorite players. I'm putting you on the honor that you'll only pick 12. I'm trusting you. If it gets too out of hand, I'll ask everyone to just PM me their choices. BE NICE PEOPLE
Do you regret making that huge list?
I probably will eventually. Let's see if it works for now though.
KoolKoal: Feel free to take this with a grain of salt since self meta isn't particularly helpful, but I think I get scumread mostly for style over substance, but also for a certain lack of substance over style. It's not so much what I AM posting most of the time (though sometimes that can seem bad) but what I'm NOT posting. I've been told I come to non-obvious conclusions a lot, so when I post, quite a bit of the time there's jumps in logic that people can't follow and they think that's scummy. I get that accusation about a lot of questions I ask specifically. People call them "busy work" when the questions are legit etc.
As far as things to ignore, I can't think of anything. I would suggest you focus less on what I'm doing and more on how I'm doing it. That's probably more likely to be accurate. Like I've just said, what I do tends to come off a little weird, but if you look for how I do it, mindset comes into play and maybe you figure out something useful.
I do not like you for this not being in ABC order.

Maybe? I don't generally like minis, unless the playerlist is invitational quality (I enjoyed Hobbit, Cross-town, and the Redux games). A lot of my analysis tools are more consistent in larger games, and there's more Days to figure things out.
I find it funny that I am on the list because I replaced into a game a couple weeks ago and that is literally the only mafia I have played in...a few years
W may only be paid with white mana. U may only be paid with blue mana. B may only be paid with black mana. R may only be paid with red mana. G may only be paid with green mana. C may only be paid with colorless mana. 1 may be paid with white, blue, black, red, green, or clolorless mana.

Am I allowed to say who I voted for or does that ruin the fun of this sort of thing?
