Your opponent will never draw, so you can activate magus of the jar to draw 14, discard a Temporal Cascade to play Temporal Cascade, and repeat.
Play Aegis of Honor
Opponent plays Breaking Point, you take 6
Opponent Chain lightnings you down to 10
Opponent Hidetsugu Second Rites you and Forks it, you Aegis both ftw.
Puzzle to come soon.
You have a 4 mana enchantment in play, 3 basic lands and a llanowar elf. You have 1 card in hand and the top 10 cards of your library are Squires. Your opponent is at 10,000 life and has Moat in play. Win.
Corrections to the corrections:
In 1 v 5 You have Scarecrone activating to return reclaimer. He doesn't have the mana to activate Scarecrone. Workshop can only play spells. This should leave the match 2-2, but I haven't worked it out very meticulously.
In 2 v 8, Leyline of the Void prevents flashstorm from doing anything aside from casting inversion once. So Stax just plays spirit and leyline and eventually wins. 6-0 the other way.
In 5v7 you again have Scarecrone's ability being relevant when it isn't, but I'm too lazy to work out any stack matchups.
"I annoy Harry Potter" sure makes sense for Rita Skeeter.
I don't see anything wrong with the claim and it makes sense to me. Also, it's not a particularly powerful role most of the game so that further makes the attention seeking make more sense. Also, this role is substantially more powerful after all claims are made so that makes the mass claim bit make a little more sense.
I'm up for an SoP claim as well. Cubus has done numerous weird things such as vote GR based on armlx's "info" even after armlx gave up on it (2096), call for mass claims, and defend Ged. I don't really consider the IAHP thing necessarily a point against him, but a claim would help clear that up since the townie-ness of it hinges upon his role.

I am not reading scum on CPE. He hasn't been the most contributive player, but I don't see much scummy or contrived about his play so far.
Quote from GR »
In 1181, he votes Ged, but for the simple reason of the game needing to go to night. In other words, he's just hopping on late on the Ged wagon without any real reasoning.
I actually consider this a point in his favor. Why would a scum act reluctant when joining a wagon on fellow scum. The only productive things for scum are to try to avoid getting the wagon to critical or to attack and try to earn townie points. Reluctantly joining does neither unless you dip into the realm of WIFOM.
