Sorry for not being around, I have been crazy jetlagged and sick. Starting back at work has been hectic too, hopefully my body gets the act together soon so life can get back to normal!
3-1 in Legacy on Tuesday with The Gate. Hadn't played it in a while, it was fun! I started picking up some stuff for a Vintage brew, too.
I need to edit photos from my trip and start making some art again! Getting back into the swing of applying for grants and exhibition is hard!
Regardless of the state of our union; it is obvious we, those past as well as present |Called|, care about this clan and don't want to let it pass by side of the road.
I think each of us will naturally have our own perspective on what may have led to the threat of forced closure.
We are all individuals here & always have been; individuals bound by a common |Call|ing of fellowship, brotherhood and banter.
This is essentially what makes us unlike any other clan that was or ever will be.
Vying for longevity as we may; the greatest tragedy would be to see the last post, of the last thread, of the eldest clan to have been traced to the pre-clan days ..ending with wailing whimpers of defeat.
We are better than that, no other clan will ever achieve what we collectively have; immortality in one another’s memories as well as amongst these threads.
Old, new and past members should band together; not to writhe in what once failed them or what has been threatened to die, but to celebrate what we all know we have been, we can be & what we have yet to become!
..We are **** ing |Called| yo!!
After all; the 28th has come & gone, yet we are still standing.
..So kiss the rings *****..

For the most part anyway. To some extent I kind of think the last bout of drama was rather odd considering everyone involved is still talking with each other and claiming to let bygones be bygones and no hard feelings and stuff. Which is good since I consider JJ a friend and, despite my part in the drama, still consider kpaca a friend as well. Lots of history there. Still, I don't envision even mild reconciliation happening with Townos or Alex +....and wasn't there another individual that we chased out with pitchforks after he lied over and over again? Something about making up stories to Daron and others, maybe even claiming to be psychologically testing our reaction? That whole incident where BLOD bogged outright kicking him out down in bureaucracy and then quit in anger when we bypassed him.
For my part the only lingering bad blood is between me and Cyan. He and I are still on the outs and he hasn't even tried to make good on anything. I best end there for fear of delving into a bitter unending rant...

And I guess that I'm a lucky one for the truth of what I know. For my heart had not denied me and I have somewhere to go. I shall never be a prisoner of steel and glass and stone. If I leave, I will return again to my Rocky Mountain home.
Thank you for always keepin' it real as well good sir.
Eds - Yeah Dagg, I remember saying/thinking that booting Cyan wouldn't help you get what you are owed. The sadder thing is it shouldn't have to. But if he hadn't made attempt to after all that time, it is doubtful he ever will.

Well it doesn't look like there's any progress, but I'm still in contact with him and he does keep promising a payment. He just can't be bothered to follow through with any of his promises.
Glad to see you back Diggy.....it's been too long. You said you've changed a bit since last you were here...but you didn't say how. I's curious.
...Oh, and 24 isn't old. Though I guess I thought it was old back when I was 24.
I've moved beyond seasonal jobs and now have a job that should last two years. ...assuming funding keeps solid despite the sequester and budget cuts and what knot.

I just hope we outlast the Guild Clans, but I don't see that happening at this point.
I'll be honest, my problem is that I often forget about this place. Now, with that said, there's no way this clan can live with just the people it has now. We either need to recruit more members, or let the clan pass with its head held high.
So I've decided this is my last year of coaching Little League until I move out of the area I currently live in. It is getting less about the players, and more about how much money the league can make every year. If they spent the money on the players, it'd be fine, but they just hoard it.
hmmm....what else has been going on? One of my very breast friends moved to Arizona, so I am trying to figure out a way to visit her. My brother got married, and is planning on visiting again the end of this month. The end of the school term is rapidly approaching, and if I pass, it'll be by the skin of my teeth. I think that's all.

Just poking my head in here to remind you all that Clan Contest Mafia VII sign-ups are open - hope to see you guys participating.
I have never played Mafia before, but I have a feeling it is similar to a game we used to play in Drama in high school.
1-3 in Legacy last night, which was just so incredibly disappointing. I tilted hard after I misplayed horribly vs. Elves (totally blanked when he cast a Glimpse and just said "yep" forgetting I had drawn a Force with a blue spell in my hand). My Bant list is becoming more and more consistent with the addition of 2 Savannahs, a Tundra, a Vendilion Clique, and an Elspeth.
At the GP in Brisbane in October we get 2 (!!!) Legacy events, as well as a Vintage event, which is super awesome! The prizes for Legacy are nuts too;
1st - Moat (English)
2nd - Grim Tutor
3rd - 4th - Jace, The Mind Sculptor
5th - 8th - Force of Will
Got lots of goodies from Modern Masters, and it's been lots of fun to draft. Hoping to draft it some more when I have money next week. At the moment I'm looking at three decks for Modern - Dark Master Affinity, UR Faeries, and Bant Maverick. I'm leaning towards Faeries because I love the tempo shell and it looks like so much fun!

I'm too much of an ******** when I think people are trying to kill me in my sleep. My playstyle isn't conductive to friendly gaming, & it's too much effort not to slip into SCATHING INTERROGATION MODE.
That said, if it comes down to the wire I always pitch in

Me too. Woke up in the middle of the night a few nights back. Heart beating like mad as if something was wrong. I didn't know what it was, but thought that maybe the **** hit the fan with the downstairs neighbor, or thieves, or something. I armed myself and listened, waiting for whatever woke me to make their move. Would I need to defend myself, try to help someone, do something? Dunno...but the night was silent. After about a half hour of nothing I relaxed and went back to sleep. Found out the next morning that my roommate did the exact same thing. Neither of us ever figured out what caused us to get all rialed up.

Sounds pretty intense. I get regularly woken up by noise and my own dreams so I have a hard time discerning whether one or the other has woken me up. I'm constantly strung out on paranoia any time I wake up suddenly.
