The judges didn't give you any crap about it? People ask, I say "I've never heard about any of the cards being a problem in SCG events," but it's been a while since I've heard anything.

Nah, I checked with the head judge today just to make sure. He said it was a very nice alter and that it was good it was painted so flat.
I am pretty sad that I didn't pick up Eidolon sooner, Burn is an archetype that I wouldn't mind trying out, given the goodies it has picked up recently. Did you test Swiftspear at all in addition to Guide? I haven't followed the deck enough to know if there is a clear choice that has been made there, I see lists on the Source trying them out but the last list to place highly at an Open (Jim Davis I believe), played none.
EDIT: Was playing Pauper on MTGO a short while ago and got brutalized by Mono Black Control. I couldn't help but think "Wow, this is what it feels like to have all of your options stripped away and get buried in card advantage". It was not, pretty.
I've had the opportunity to test Swiftspear in Modern, but not Legacy. I didn't like her, but I might have been playing her wrong as well. I kept dropping her turn one and she would die immediately. Even quicker than when I had Guide out. People are freaked out when they see her.
Has anyone noticed the creature type fail for Monastery Swiftspear being a Human Monk, but have elf ears?
Never mind. I looked at the physical card and it's human ears.
Have you stopped playing Zombardment for the time being?
Honestly? If I'm going to throw forty dollars into a pile of winnings, I wanted to put my best foot forward and that would be Burn. I have more experience playing Burn because I play it in Modern and Burn in Legacy is tier one, IMHO.
I am returning to it now though. I'm going to see if I can perfect it before February for SCG:LA, CA.

Sweet, glad to hear it. I will watch the thread and see what you come up with

Tangentially related to the topic of health, does anyone have some advice for someone trying to lose some weight? I've finally decided that I need to do something about this gut that I have, so I have been trying to spend some time walking around campus instead of stuffing my face. Spending less money on junk food is also a plus.

Make yourself your meals. Pack yourself a lunch or something. It helps you portion control and you eat healthier too. It also usually saves you money as well.
I lost weight (not a huge amount, but i look fit now) by eating differently. Eat healthier , yes but also eat less (id eat until i felt full, now i eat until im not hungry ). This is because i wanted to lose weight but not do exercise. Eat well, and less.
I've cut a lot of junk food out of my apartment and have been working to make a big cut in my soda intake. My goal is to get back down to 200 pounds by the summer (I'm around 260 now), so I am definitely setting an ambitious goal.
I need to get some new running shoes soon, though, since these are pretty worn out - I have been trying to walk/jog for 20-30 minutes most days, although I don't generally get a chance on Tuesdays or Wednesdays since I have night classes. (I'm a night person and generally go running between 6:00 and 8:00 PM.)

Cut out all sugary drink and within a month, along with some increased activity, you'll drop twenty pounds. It sounds easy, but you'll be surprised how much you actually drink that has a lot of sugar in it. Doing this, you'll tend to stay away from fast food joints, leading to even more weight loss. Next step is portion control, which is even harder to do, and I still have problems with it. I went from two-hundred-thirty to one-hundred-ninety. I fluctuate between one-ninety to two-hundred though, due to inability to do portion control.

Did he win the Landstill match? I had to leave to go to the store before I could finish watching the match. I saw something about Become Immense in the Source thread and I secretly hoped that it was an indicator that Tom had won.

No, I just got home, I was out of town, is he playing it? I have a feeling I missed something sweet...lol
Has he had more than one feature match? I watched him in a replay earlier but didn't catch the end of it.
It's because its the off topic community thread for Market Street, not for the entire site :).
Ha! You fail lol. Yeah, he was in another one, but had one more loss and didn't make top eight.
You go to healthcare.gov, enter your state and your income, and it gives you options.
