I lol'd.
It's almost scary that we were just talking about Angels and Demons, as the Large Hadron Collider is being used for the first time today (the first attempt to circulate a beam through the entire LHC)...
Well, one of my FB friends has "LHC!" as his status, which doesn't express joy, sorrow, or anger so much as neutral anticipation. xkcd had a comic about it. Other than that, I haven't really heard anything.
That's only part of it. There's also the whole thing about being aloof to your fellow man when appropriate. For instance, the up-nod.
Yes, the esteemed up-nod, a very noble tradition. There are a few things going on in the whole man-to-man rapport thing, which are solidarity, strength, and straightness.
4)i dont care what you say(AI....) every person is at least a little gay inside. If my friend steve can admit that, its true. honestly, its all comes down to how comfortabel with your sexuality. theres a joke at work, if someone helps you out with something, you look at the and say "totally" which stands for "id totally have gay sex with you..." I said it kiddingly to a coworker and it stuck. we're a bunch of meat guys, those jokes are funny too us.
I'm gonna have to go with AI on this one. I do believe there are lot of people who are a little (or a lot) gay and are just ashamed or embarrassed to fool around or to be themselves because it is so unacceptable to some people. But by no means is everyone gay.
Being gay means having actual romantic/sexual feelings for a member of the same sex. Not being an ass to people who are gay is just being open minded. Liking (even deeply) a friend of the same sex, joking about gay sex, and admitting another guy/girl is attractive does not -at all- make you gay. You are gay if you want to *bleep* *honk* or stick a *buzzt* in your *quack!* (Obv. it's different for da ladies. - they want to *chortle* *bazing* or *choo-choo* all night long.)
it was nice to put some faces to the names though.
Yeah. Some of you looked exactly like I imagined - or close enough. Others I was surprised about. It's quite a shock to see everyone's face for the first time - all at once.
The lands are very intriguing. Although it's nothing earth-shattering, the lands that come into play tapped and can be tapped for one of three colors of mana (presumably this is a cycle) are strictly better than the Invasion CIPT duals. Of course, shocklands are (almost) strictly better than those outdated relics, as well...but these are 100% strictly better.
To start with **** wizards. Then,
**** wizards.
Also, I ****ing hate wizards and their ***hole/***hat/***scarf ways. These ****ing donkey licking fiends....
Why must they develop the ****ing exact same idea that I do,
C O M P L E T E L Y I N D E P E N D A N T L Y !
at the same time?!?!?!?!one eleven!!!!11!!1!!111
Are you still with me?
1) **** wizards
2) **** wizards again.
3) **** wizards with a spoon.
4) **** wizards with a knife.
5) Wizards can lick my ****.
6) They can also **** my ***** with a ****ing smoldering **** *** in a bedtime **** granola vacuum!
7) **** wizards with a 9-iron.
8) **** them with a mint black lotus.
9) **** wizards with a spoon. (The first time, there was no spoon)
10) I love wizards. They are secretly my buddies and I want to ----justkidding****wizards!
Needless to say I am sick of them developing the same ideas that I do right after I see the same sets that they see right before they come up with these ideas. And they still do not hire my ass right on the spot!
Financial problems are part of it. Another is the fact that I have almost no idea what the hell I want to study, let alone do for the rest of my life.
To be honest, lands aren't exactly the most complicated cards in the world to design (given they have no mana cost or power and toughness)...but I feel your pain.

Take my advice and get at least a minor in computer science. Or something else that will earn you some actual real money, like accounting. You will NEVRAR EVRAR regret it. The last thing you want is to end up with a triple major in Philosophy, Theology, and German and an unfinished graduate degree in Philosophy. It pays significantly less than its noble dignity might suggest.

I actually find lands to be tougher to design precisely because there are no costs or stats to fool around with. The CIP tapped thing is actually a much bigger drawback than they have treated it and I've gotta say I still think adding 3 colors instead of 2 is not enough (though it is the simpler solution). My lands are strictly better than theirs, and I don't regret it as CIP tapped is a major handicap.
ALSO: can anyone here play elder dragon highlander? (for the purposes of clan contests) And, does anyone have any ideas for a simple and easy clan contest?
I was in Materials Science, I'm currently in Packaging, and I'm leaning towards studying Psychology in the future. I'd probably end up doing market research or teaching in high school. *protection from Ravus*
I play EDH on MWS with ratfinkp sometimes. My general is Our Lord and Savior, his is Reaper King.
My deck isn't great (Oona, Queen of the Fae is widely regarded as the most powerful general among my friends), but it's original and versatile. I'd tell you my instant win condition, but I don't want to give it away to our potential competition. The astute probably already know what it is. (ratkinp, don't say anything!)

What is "Materials Science?" Or "Packaging" for that matter?
And BTW, it's just more elegant to give your comment protection from Ravus. That way he can't block it, enchant it, damage it or even target it in the first place.

Good to know. We may be doing it for the first contest of next year. Anyone else with expertise feel free to step up. But at least we know one of us knows the format.
Also, isn't ratfink a former Rakdos? And who is he apprenticing under?
Materials Science is an engineering field that is like a less applied version of Mechanical Engineering. Basically, they create and test the materials MEs use.
Packaging is an applied engineering-like field that basically designs and tests packages (food, pharmecutical, cosmetic, etc.). Packaging majors work closely with food science and marketing people.
I...have no idea. We should ask him.
Someone should PM rocker so he can start the new thread.
Alright, first of all, I tried to quote AI's statement of PfR, but I couldn't get my computer to highlight it.
Next, holy hells, we have over 1300 posts? New threads please. *Ravus holds his hand out in expectation*
Finally, in all seriousness, wamyc, WotC probably designed these lands long before you did (they start sets up to two years in advance). That being said...
**** Wizards with Umezawa's Jitte!
Edit: Alright, I know that there once was a deck, long ago, that used such cards as Alter Reality, Llawan, and Possessed Aven... but I can't for the life of Nooblet (my neighbor/student/follower that never grew out of being a noob) find a decklist! Can anyone here assist my search?
I'm getting a degree at my community college in graphic design, then I'm going to go to a different school and get another degree (a 4 year) in broadcast journalism. At least, that's my plan, for now.
Ravus, I think we need a new thread title before we dive into getting a new thread. I know it's been discussed a few times however I don't think we actually settled on one.
Why do I always miss posting with waymc? Anyway.
There was something else I was going to say but I just woke up so it's impossible for me to think.

ALSO: can anyone here play elder dragon highlander? (for the purposes of clan contests) And, does anyone have any ideas for a simple and easy clan contest?
i really really want to get into EDH. i want to either build around Teneb or Radha.
does anyone know where i could find a place to get strategy on building for EDH? im gonna try Magic.com
the next clan contest should have us design a new piece of power9, or a card that would be banned before it even sees play.
this is for Ravus:
Grixis Undoing GBR
Sorcery {R}
Put Target Creature in Target Graveyard into play under your control. You lose 4 Life, and Target Opponent draws a card.
im not sure on the name, but id love to see a reanimation spell like this...
Then add lands. At least 22 total.
I'll provide more input after that.
No. Grixis. Esper is all fine and good, but Grixis is where it's at (by "it," I mean myself...).
New spoilers?
*Gone*
Edit: Holy ****! I'm liking Alara more and more, and I haven't seen much any from my shard!
Although evasion is pretty awesome in Limited...
Annies choco bunnies FTW!!!!
