We've been around since the dawn of time, give or take a day.. We were the first Clan, created back in 2000 in the ye'olde times @mtgnews; 13 years ago we were formed. We left 'News & made the 'Sally our home. Proud & strong we have stayed: Winning contests & awards (when we give a damn to try) even snagged Clan of the year in 2007 & 2010! We’ve archived over a full decade of friendship & drama; like any family. But we're still here & we have chunks of fallen Clans in our stool.
We take a lot of pride in our history here in the Called.
We are currently looking for new members, so come on in; loosen your belt, grab a seabug biscuit, for (remember "tap, tap, pass-turn") & join in the fun! Feel free to lurk &/or post a little. But do stay on topic. We tend to have a short tolerance for spammers & people who are “over-the-top”, as well as those who can't express themselves genuinely!
The best way to do become a member is to simply join-in (not dominate) the conversation & we'll see if there is some synergy to be had. Try to be patient with us as well, take often our time before we bring new brethren into the fold.

Well I didn't even see this until I posted in the other thread. oops on my part, but ah well.
Greetings all. I'm back from my trip to Vegas. Nothing wild, just family fun. We exchanged presents and stuff. I got a flask and some nice whiskey to go with it. ...and I haven't stopped playing with that flask. Took it skiing with me where I took a nip with every lift. Spiced up my drinks at various restaurants. And just casually sipped on a few hikes here and there. Man, what a fun toy.
I also got a Kindle Paperweight. Its black and white and claims to have a battery life of 8 weeks. I bought a few books and have been enjoying a good book. I thought it would be cumbersome or that I'd miss the feel of a real book, but it hasn't really been that bad.
The new year is looking optimistic. Like new years tend to do. I plan to eat healthier....more veggies and more red meat, lose some weight, and maybe start dating. Hazzah for resolutions.
Cheers,
Daggertooth

Your clan thread looks pretty bad from the main page. All it displays is "We will rape the..."
It got you to click it, didn't it??
Happy new year everyone! I drank a lot of cocktails and danced. I went swimming the next day and it was the best. Tonight, I am going to an awesome Swedish restaurant. Good start to the year!
Looking forward to work calming down over the next few weeks. Still doing 8-9 hour shifts every day and it's killing my sleep pattern, I'm just exhausted all the time and in the Australian summer it just takes so long to fall asleep.
In two weeks time I am going to my first GP! Flying down to Sydney, I am very excited! It is Sealed, so I am obviously going to go Rakdos if I can. With my luck I'll be given the most amazing Azorius pool and will have no idea how to build it. I'm also taking the Gate to the Legacy side event (Winner gets a Mishra's Workshop) and throwing together a budget/mostly borrowed Dark Times for Vintage if I don't make day 2 of the GP. There is also a huge retrospective of Francis Bacon at the NSW Art Gallery, I cannot WAIT to see that - he is one of my favourite painters!
Happy New Years everybody! I spent my new years with a lot of my buddies, and we pretty much got hammered and just had a blast. Passed out at around 6 A.M., it was definitely a good way to start off the new year.

So, yeah - Thread Title Changed. No surprise, guess I’ll vent:
Quote a classic-comedy PG movie from 1986 (likely before more than half these members were born) & you’ve got a mob after you. But let “Gaymers” talk about “peeking at decks” all they want; if that bothers you, than you’re a homophobe or a bigot. I, myself, was sexually abused by an older male child when I was young. So I read that thread title back then and thought “that’s dumb” then moved on with things I had to do. So you see, I can understand someone who may have been sexually assaulted not seeing the humor in a quote from a movie they’ve likely never seen. But somewhere, somehow, someday people are going to have to learn they can’t make everyone & everything else change b/c they don’t like “this” or “that” offends them.
In life, you’re better off learning to endure & overlook things you don’t like, so long as they don’t affect you directly. If you want to start and/or fight in every cause you can find, prepare for a short & sad life.
I've been tweeking on my Modern deck. PTQ here in town in 9 days. I believe I have a final draft. If CharD or votan wouldn't mind giving it a once-over and some feedback LMK & I'll shoot it to you PM.

That's what I thought. We old geezers don't really care as much about this stuff, that's why I assumed it'd easier to just change it than to actually deal with the discussion of it...
What's that?.. Who..? Just a moment let me get me hearing-aid.. *Dux fumbles around*
Now, what's that you young whipper-snapper say? ...What?..
IDK where Ria is, but i'll bet its somewhere in Australia.
I'm thinking of just axing sXe. He's been MIA for quite a while.
Yuk - Helloooo.....? [/echo][/echo][/echo]
What the hellfire happened?! This can't be nearing the end, just a few loyal |Called| left. ...it just ain't right to fizzle out in the wind after 12-13 years. But everything does tend toward it's ruin, ..people ruin everything.
PTQ'n on the 12th! (Modern) I realized I've been taking building my deck way to seriously. I've never won or done that well at tourney's before. I'm more a collector than a player, I'm just gonna go to have fun w/ a homebrew deck.
It'll be a nice change from the typical Saturday sitting on my ass @ home.

Don't worry , its just that time, when members have to be [Called] into shape.
@ CharileD , if you can answer my pm that would be splendid
The holidays were a lot of fun for me. I went up north and made a grand tour between Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin; vesting relatives in each state and we all eventually headed back to my grandmother's in Iowa. She turns 80 this year, so we had the whole clan gathered together for a Christmas/birthday celebration. We haven't had us all in one spot in well over a decade.
Anyway, all of our family's great cooks, my grandma, my mother, all my aunts, my uncle that used to be a baker, and my girlfriend (her first trip up north) got together and basically made a feast. Anywhere in that tiny little house that wasn't occupied by a person was holding food. It was marvelous.
We all ate for hours and by the time we were done, every male fell asleep in the living room and the women went downstairs for wine and chit chat.
Easily one of the best family gatherings I've been to in years.
On a side note, I am seriously tempted to have my name changed on these forums. I started a livestreaming page recently, and I am rocking the same gaming handle I have had for years there. Feels weird to come back here and be "Yukora"
Good to see you back yuks. Its been a very long while. what have you been up to? School treat you good? ...still in school? What was the degree you were working on again? I'm getting old...memory cuts out and all that.
I'm thinking of just axing sXe. He's been MIA for quite a while.
.
Meh, He quit salvation altogether. So we probably wont ever see him back unless we facebook him to make an appearance. Opening a batcave up again would allow us to invite some oldies who don't come here. I know hkkid and sxe might go for that. But I haven't bothered opening up one.
So I decided not to be a part time student this semester...well it was decided for me. Seems that the deadline to register was december 1st, a bit before I started schemeing. So I'll have to try my money saving scheme this summer. Basic idea, be a part time student on paper. If I can find online classes I like, more power to me. If I can't, then drop the class after the paperwork goes through. It'll cost me money, but if I did my math right, it should save me even more. Ironic really, but my student loans are pretty high.
Cheers,
Daggertooth

Anybody here watch football? And by football, I mean American Football (sorry votan). Any favourites to win the Super Bowl? My chips are on the Denver Broncos, looks like Peyton is going for a final ring to cap off a fantastic career in the NFL. My Dad and Uncle are huge fans, so it's going to be pretty loud around here next Saturday.

You missed out. There were tits or something.
Personally, I'm rooting for mah Packers. The past few years have been a real sight to behold considering how long it's been since we had a Superbowl-caliber team.
Brady hasn't been Brady for years, though. He's still got an arm on him, but he refuses to run since he was injured.
I have to disagree about the packers being a one man team. Rogers is obviously the brightest star on the roster, but the Packers would still be without a lot of success if we didn't have Matthews, Finley, Nelson, Jones, and many others.
We have a legendary player on the team, yes, but that doesn't make all the players that would be great on any other team substandard.
We should let sleeping corpses lie in rubble of the cave-in.
Football, I don't give a damn..
But JJ (awesome to see you in here ) if the Ravens win the Super bowl - I will post an extremely embarrassing photo of myself.
AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN BRO!
I'm tossing my original Modern deck all-together & going with something I feel I'll have more fun with. Still tinkering tho..
My Cardinals will win it all. That QB of ours is great. And the other members in those other positions, the blockers and those that catch the ball, are all good too. They will beat whatever team currently exists out there just because I say so and I'm an Arizonian! They will demolish the Ravens! Go Super bowl...thing! Hazzah! <----one of the guys
Hi JJ, didn't know you lurked around. Hows life treating you lately?
Uggg....been having writers block lately. I need to get this report done for work and I've just been staring at the computer, type a little, then delete. I know I'm not half bad at writing, but the amount of hours staring at a computer with nothing....right....hard to say I'm worth my pay for the past few days. Hope I can get this done before it gets me in trouble. Part of my job is typing up reports in a timely fashion.
I still haven't figured out if I'm going to move from here. The "no kitchen" thing is annoying, but the rent is relatively cheaper than other places. I might be obsessing a bit too much about pinching every penny. How can I settle down if I only allow myself to live in semi-temporary situations. A small room with no casual living space and no kitchen? Maybe its worth the extra few hundred bucks for my own place. I might even be happier. Technically I can afford it... Maybe its worth it?
Cheers,
Daggertooth

I don't follow sports, so I have just been lurking, sorry guys.
GP is next week, testing my build for Legacy tonight and went 2-1-1, not bad... had some weird matchups and bad luck. In the GP itself I'd have to go 6-2 to make day 2, so I hope I can pull it off. Also a friend is lending me his Dark Times deck to play in the Sunday Vintage event if I don't make day 2, so that will be fun!

Greetings all. I'm back from my trip to Vegas. Nothing wild, just family fun. We exchanged presents and stuff. I got a flask and some nice whiskey to go with it. ...and I haven't stopped playing with that flask. Took it skiing with me where I took a nip with every lift. Spiced up my drinks at various restaurants. And just casually sipped on a few hikes here and there. Man, what a fun toy.
I also got a Kindle Paperweight. Its black and white and claims to have a battery life of 8 weeks. I bought a few books and have been enjoying a good book. I thought it would be cumbersome or that I'd miss the feel of a real book, but it hasn't really been that bad.

With my luck I'll be given the most amazing Azorius pool and will have no idea how to build it. I'm also taking the Gate to the Legacy side event (Winner gets a Mishra's Workshop) and throwing together a budget/mostly borrowed Dark Times for Vintage if I don't make day 2 of the GP. There is also a huge retrospective of Francis Bacon at the NSW Art Gallery, I cannot WAIT to see that - he is one of my favourite painters!

Random thought: Why do people say "Happy New Year?" ...I mean, what else were they expecting to happen?
I swear, People are the worst thing to have ever happened to People.

Are you a pilot or a creator??
Only in spirit my friend..
So, yeah - Thread Title Changed. No surprise, guess I’ll vent:
Quote a classic-comedy PG movie from 1986 (likely before more than half these members were born) & you’ve got a mob after you. But let “Gaymers” talk about “peeking at decks” all they want; if that bothers you, than you’re a homophobe or a bigot. I, myself, was sexually abused by an older male child when I was young. So I read that thread title back then and thought “that’s dumb” then moved on with things I had to do. So you see, I can understand someone who may have been sexually assaulted not seeing the humor in a quote from a movie they’ve likely never seen. But somewhere, somehow, someday people are going to have to learn they can’t make everyone & everything else change b/c they don’t like “this” or “that” offends them.
In life, you’re better off learning to endure & overlook things you don’t like, so long as they don’t affect you directly. If you want to start and/or fight in every cause you can find, prepare for a short & sad life.
I've been tweeking on my Modern deck. PTQ here in town in 9 days. I believe I have a final draft. If CharD or votan wouldn't mind giving it a once-over and some feedback LMK & I'll shoot it to you PM.

What's that?.. Who..? Just a moment let me get me hearing-aid.. *Dux fumbles around*
Now, what's that you young whipper-snapper say? ...What?..
IDK where Ria is, but i'll bet its somewhere in Australia.
I'm thinking of just axing sXe. He's been MIA for quite a while.
Yuk - Helloooo.....? [/echo][/echo][/echo]
What the hellfire happened?! This can't be nearing the end, just a few loyal |Called| left. ...it just ain't right to fizzle out in the wind after 12-13 years. But everything does tend toward it's ruin, ..people ruin everything.
PTQ'n on the 12th! (Modern) I realized I've been taking building my deck way to seriously. I've never won or done that well at tourney's before. I'm more a collector than a player, I'm just gonna go to have fun w/ a homebrew deck.
It'll be a nice change from the typical Saturday sitting on my ass @ home.

The holidays were a lot of fun for me. I went up north and made a grand tour between Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin; vesting relatives in each state and we all eventually headed back to my grandmother's in Iowa. She turns 80 this year, so we had the whole clan gathered together for a Christmas/birthday celebration. We haven't had us all in one spot in well over a decade.
Anyway, all of our family's great cooks, my grandma, my mother, all my aunts, my uncle that used to be a baker, and my girlfriend (her first trip up north) got together and basically made a feast. Anywhere in that tiny little house that wasn't occupied by a person was holding food. It was marvelous.
We all ate for hours and by the time we were done, every male fell asleep in the living room and the women went downstairs for wine and chit chat.
Easily one of the best family gatherings I've been to in years.
On a side note, I am seriously tempted to have my name changed on these forums. I started a livestreaming page recently, and I am rocking the same gaming handle I have had for years there. Feels weird to come back here and be "Yukora"
Meh, He quit salvation altogether. So we probably wont ever see him back unless we facebook him to make an appearance. Opening a batcave up again would allow us to invite some oldies who don't come here. I know hkkid and sxe might go for that. But I haven't bothered opening up one.
So I decided not to be a part time student this semester...well it was decided for me. Seems that the deadline to register was december 1st, a bit before I started schemeing. So I'll have to try my money saving scheme this summer. Basic idea, be a part time student on paper. If I can find online classes I like, more power to me. If I can't, then drop the class after the paperwork goes through. It'll cost me money, but if I did my math right, it should save me even more. Ironic really, but my student loans are pretty high.
Cheers,

Anybody here watch football? And by football, I mean American Football (sorry votan). Any favourites to win the Super Bowl? My chips are on the Denver Broncos, looks like Peyton is going for a final ring to cap off a fantastic career in the NFL. My Dad and Uncle are huge fans, so it's going to be pretty loud around here next Saturday.

You missed out. There were tits or something.
Personally, I'm rooting for mah Packers. The past few years have been a real sight to behold considering how long it's been since we had a Superbowl-caliber team.
I have to disagree about the packers being a one man team. Rogers is obviously the brightest star on the roster, but the Packers would still be without a lot of success if we didn't have Matthews, Finley, Nelson, Jones, and many others.
We have a legendary player on the team, yes, but that doesn't make all the players that would be great on any other team substandard.
We should let sleeping corpses lie in rubble of the cave-in.
Football, I don't give a damn..
But JJ (awesome to see you in here ) if the Ravens win the Super bowl - I will post an extremely embarrassing photo of myself.
AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN BRO!
I'm tossing my original Modern deck all-together & going with something I feel I'll have more fun with. Still tinkering tho..
Yuk, awesome to see you as well!!

Hi JJ, didn't know you lurked around. Hows life treating you lately?
Uggg....been having writers block lately. I need to get this report done for work and I've just been staring at the computer, type a little, then delete. I know I'm not half bad at writing, but the amount of hours staring at a computer with nothing....right....hard to say I'm worth my pay for the past few days. Hope I can get this done before it gets me in trouble. Part of my job is typing up reports in a timely fashion.
I still haven't figured out if I'm going to move from here. The "no kitchen" thing is annoying, but the rent is relatively cheaper than other places. I might be obsessing a bit too much about pinching every penny. How can I settle down if I only allow myself to live in semi-temporary situations. A small room with no casual living space and no kitchen? Maybe its worth the extra few hundred bucks for my own place. I might even be happier. Technically I can afford it... Maybe its worth it?
Cheers,
Daggertooth

GP is next week, testing my build for Legacy tonight and went 2-1-1, not bad... had some weird matchups and bad luck. In the GP itself I'd have to go 6-2 to make day 2, so I hope I can pull it off. Also a friend is lending me his Dark Times deck to play in the Sunday Vintage event if I don't make day 2, so that will be fun!
CharlieD and while your pming Votan , can you also pm me?

Has nothing to do with nationality.
It's simple usernames and capitolization.
