Yeah Magic can cause a lot of fights, but I only notice it when the n00bs, you know, the ones who dont know all of the rules, get into a disagreement.
Most of the more experienced People I play with arent like that, seeing as the majority of us are either Judges or just rules gurus.

Haha...Unhinged drafts are the coolest things ever. And the most prone to erupting in a D&D tavern-esque massive fistfight. I should try to make it to one eventually...

Speaking of Unhinged drafts... Vile Bile is probably the most broken card ever. My friend played his card, picked it up... took 2 damage and slapped me across the face with it 10 times and I lost.

We had a house rule that if you did that, you were immediately castrated on the spot. I personally like imagining what people would think if they walked into the store in the middle of the draft and saw all the crazy shennanigans going on.
Also, ♥♥♥♥ WINTER.
Edit: Gah...♥♥♥♥ you, heart-censors. That makes my explitives look weird.

definitely EPIC! Thats so much fun to do, try it in a game of chaos magic, it can turn into a total battle royal
I did not play enough unhinged to ever come across vile bile, as my experience with it was opening five packs and playing random pile (Foregoing a long explanation, just think cube without the drafting.)
I added our new friends to the list, and wow do we have a lot of people looking at this thread not using invisimode.

Holy ♥♥♥♥, I didn't know I was surrounded by this many rednecks.
Also, as to clarify my intents and purposes, I want Zur eliminated. He's not the kind of guy who's gonna be scared. As I analyze this question, I see to conditions that need to be fulfilled:
Quote from rianalnn »
it would seem one of our contestants just wasn't mentally prepared for trials Coraline must face + they totally pissed themselves. Who was it?
1) The candidate must be "mentally unprepared" for the "trials Coraline must face."
2) The candidate must have "pissed themselves"
Thus, Zur cannot be voted for and should be eliminated because:
A) Zur is insane.
B) If A is true, then Zur can never be an applicable candidate to fulfill requirement 1 as being insane would justify a default sense of "mentally unstable" which is different from being just merely "mentally unprepared."
C) If conditional 1 can not be fulfilled, then it does not matter whether conditional 2 is true or not as the candidate for the vote must be able to fulfill both 1 and 2.

I guess my first question to you, would have to be: Are you yourself Insane? or Do you suffer from a Mental Health Disorder which would Make you Mentally Unstable(IE: BPD, Schizophrenia, hell even Chronic Depression)
True Unstable =/= Unprepared, In fact, the Unstable are often Prepared for things that Most People are not, Like the great Zombie War. I have often found that The Insane can Handle the most horrific things in life, but things that are categorized as "Every Day" experiences, can Terrify them.
So, if you look at the cards we had: Bob, Finkel, Jaya, and Zur, I still Vote Zur as our elimination card, for two reasons(Possibly 3):
1) Zur is Insane(As you pointed out), so in a sense, he would be Unprepared.
2) He would Piss himself, it would just happen.
3) In the end, I would Rather Build a deck around Bob or Jaya, than Zur. I dont find Zur that fun to build around AT ALL. Plus I'm Pretty sure wamyc already posted our Vote, and I really dont want to debate it anymore.
Especially with a Philosopher who claims all The Izzet aren't Insane.
Weaver im sorry but to me your third point is invalad yes its true we may be building a deck around one of these cards but how does that qualify aganst the cryteria for this vote?

I'm pretty sure eliminating a card does not mean you won't build around it. Then we would only have one card left besides the woeful alternates.
And I would love to build around Zur.
EDIT: We need to keep in mind that the only clans likely to vote us for no good reason are Planar Chaos and The Called, so let's not make enemies with the other clans.

Now that I finally understand whats going on.....my vote stays the same, Zur is a Pansy, and would certainly pee his pants during coraline.
I really would not want to build around Zur, I can do it, but attacking to bring out enchantments isnt my kind of fun.
Yes, I think Ivaldi is confusing legal inculpability with actual mental insulation. insane people have no mental insulation. If you spend even a little time around someone who is off-kilter (not even pathologically diagnosed) you will realise they are going to be more reactive to things and less stable overall.

I accept 2 as valid. Old people do tend to piss themselves more than others. 3 is like WTF? And as for 1...

True Unstable =/= (Ilvaldi: I take that sign to say "not equal") Unprepared, In fact, the Unstable are often Prepared for things that Most People are not, Like the great Zombie War. I have often found that The Insane can Handle the most horrific things in life (Ilvaldi: Coraline for example), but things that are categorized as "Every Day" experiences, can Terrify them.(Ilvaldi: the events in Coraline are not everyday.)
So how does this support the premise that "If Zur is insane, then he would be unprepared?" when it seems to me that you're arguing that the insane will be prepared for what happens in Coraline.
Quote from Weaver »
Especially with a Philosopher who claims all The Izzet aren't Insane.
You've taken my quote out of context and meaning. I said "not all Izzets are insane." You're saying that I said "all Izzets aren't insane."
What I said was that it is not the case that you will find every Izzet member to be insane. Simply put, some people will be able to sympathize and understand some Izzet League members merely because the ideas and notions that that Izzet has will be clear to them than some others.
When we're talking about the case of insanity here with the Izzet, it is like the case with what a scientist, a novelist, a poet, a writer, a musician, and a philosopher has with an un-intellectual world. Some people just aren't open minded about things and will then say stupid (in the Izzet perspective) stuff like, "how can you say it's alright to be Gay. Being gay is wrong because it isn't: it's weird, it's awkward, it's just wrong."
Statements like those never have any logical support in justifying why one thing is right over another. Though many Izzet League members can have differing views, the one thing that must hold true is that they don't accept the canons and laws made by an unquestioned authority. The Izzet follow their desires, what they think feels right, and they use logic to help guide themselves. Though the general public may think of the Izzet League as insane, it isn't the case though. It may just be then that the Izzet League are the most rational and logical beings and can see the clearest path in obtaining one's true desires by thinking so much, and so heavily, on their emotions rather than take for granted and assume something is as it is. An Izzet, in short, is a skeptic, and you can't call a skeptic insane just cause he thinks that something, which we can visibly see, may or may not be real.
I am so happy right now, I have some sweet Japanese take-out, miso soup and Sushi, Mmmmmmm MMMMM!
Miso soup is for panzies. If eating it doesn't burn your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ for three days, it's not worth eating.

He's saying that Coraline is too tame, and that Zur would be unprepared for it. If it was something like a monster ripping out of the screen and devouring the rest of his party, he'd be able to handle it, but not Coraline's clay-mation.
