    Alright, I'll try to make order here.

    1. I have known the guy previous to this "scenario". He does hint at malignant narcissism, definitly
    shines as a "control" fetish. in response to:

    is the Guy's invitation self serving I.e


    2.
    I don't know I can't really work out if the guy annoys you or if the playing magic annoys you

    I don't mind playing cards, but being harassed/stalked to do so kind of makes it less enjoyable. He ONLY targets
    me, as others have quit and he has not stalked them.

    3.
    No interest in playing at all but still frequenting a MTG-centric website? Seems a little suspect to me...

    It is (slightly)mtg related...because this guy will listen to MTG officials if he was warned that this is inappropriate behaviour. I am asking if there is some rule against stalking/forcing people to play.

    4.I can't really block his calls (they are to my house phone, which my mom uses also). Even if I did, he would still drive around here, which he has done.

    Yes. I forgot to mention that I knew this guy pre-cards. DSF, apologies.

    This really has nothing to do with Magic and everything to do with poor social communication.


    Which is why I wrote

    Sorry, I should have put this in Off Topic.


    It's also the fact that a trading card game: MAGIC THE GATHERING has become a tool used by a malignant narcissist to benefit their "control" fetish.

    Sorry, I should have put this in Off Topic..But, I have said to him "look, I just DO NOT feel like playing anymore....and I don't want to be FORCED to play... just to benefit YOU. A hobby no longer becomes fun when it's being FORCED to do"..heis reaction is "What else you going to do?" (ie as in alternative to playing cards".

    The thing I ask is (I'm asking in general, Nyarlarthop)..why do you (anyone reading) think he is so obsessed with me (and only me)going to cards so much? Narcissism (control)? I've clearly explained to him I don't want to attend cards. Others have quit, and he hasn't stalked them to come back.

    SOmething relevant though. Remember a while back I posted about how my local TO was "giving me a hard time". With this player trying to force me to go to the LGS (and only that one) is there possibilities of a connection?

    Ok, so hear me out. What can be done about this.

    I had quit MTG, and sold all my cards to a player. I had told him that I was not interested in playing anymore, and thought that would be cool. That was couple month ago.

    But that same player, and only that player, is trying to force me to return to the LGS. He calls me 3ish times a week, askingif I "need a lift" to cards. He gives other players my phone number, and tells them to call me and get me to go to the standard or draft. He even calls me up 2 hours AFTER I have told him I won't be going. He offers so called "incentives"..like "If you come this week I will give you commons you need" (A. Won't need commons if I don't have any other cards) B)They would be commons I just gave him for free)

    I mean yeah, if it was just once or twice, fair enough, but for months? Isn't that...almost stalking? He knows I clearly don't feel like playing..I gather he is trying to make me crack and say ok, I'll come once...but then he assumes that I wil lturn up weekly.

    I have Scourge of Skola Vale in play.
    I also have a Skylasher in play, which is bestowed by a Boon Satyr.
    Skylasher becomes 6/4.

    If I sacrifice the Skylasher to the scourge Boon Satyr becomes a 4/2 creature.
    But Does Scourge get 4 counters placed on it (from lasher being a 6/4 at CURRENT time of sacrifice)
    or 2? (as Satyr "drops" off the lasher)?
