I would go with daybreak coronet. I was thinking about making a GW aggro deck for casual with that card and some other auras to make daybreak playable and not a dead draw card.
Tarmogoyf could be a casual card too but its actually a pretty good threshold card in legacy. All of those brainstorms, dazes, force of wills, and serum visions can make the creature pretty big.
Ive also never seen or heard ugly betty of course probably because i dont want that much tv except the NBA playoffs.
Well i just wanted to stop by and say hello ill probalby post some more later tonight. Anyway see you all soon and i hope everyone had a good day today! *hugs and blows kisses to everyone* My day was pretty tiring though.
Love,
Cecilia

Teensy confession to make - I've already made that Aether Vial Epochrasite deck! Also: Look who's been reading their magicthegathering.com articles *points at Sakura*. I reckon I can find another way to abuse it though.
'Fox.
Actually read no such article. Its just very obvious. I could Vial/Epoch showing in Legacy somewhere actually. Not good enough for Goblins, but a colorles 2 drop that keeps coming back and usually is beefy is pretty solid.
Hey folks. I'm back from the interview and I gotta say..
I got the job It's a cashier position; all I have to do now is go to the hospital tomorrow and go take a drug test; then I'm good for orientation sometime later this week. Whee! The job pays $6.69/hr, which is good enough for me.
And for some reason I have a headache; I guess that's due to the cool air from the car vents hitting the left side of my face while the hot sun hit the right from the window I'll be okay.
edit: Does anyone have the Geek Mp3s? I need them again to reupload to my new site
Hey all,
I've decided to start posting here now. I've always thought this place was so cool, and I've been watching now an liking it. It's a place where I can just sit and talk about things that interest me. (wow, that sounded weird.)
Anyway, I think you should use the Volute. In casual it can be a lot of fun or made with a lot of synergy and it's exciting to play with. That would be your best choice IMO.
Also, congrats on job Alcar. My job (spring only) is a soccer referee for little kids. I get 15-20 bucks a game. The games are only 32 mins long, so I think it's a pretty good deal. Especially, when you get 3 games a day.
Alacar, I can PM you that site with the anime MP3s again... other than that, I don't know how we'd get them all. That is, unless somebody has a megaupload site they'd be willing to share or upload them to.
I've begun the task of typing my anime collection into Anime List Builder 3, which will let me have a searchable database of my collection when I'm done, letting me see what I have and haven't watched yet, how many episodes everything is, etc, etc. It will take a freaking very, very long time. I don't expect it to be done for like... a few weeks. Still, it's nifty. I need somewhere to upload the html to once I'd done though. Darn WSU for closing my webspace. What happened to being nice to alumni?
Also, this weekend, I've taken off work so I can go to a wooded campsite in the hills of WV with my family. Vacation for me = good times. I'll quit this damn job once I actually get the gumption to get some stuff out there and figure a few things out. Until then, it's more calling for the Leukemia/Lymphoma society. Bleh.
Thanks for the congrats, guys.. I really just can't wait to have the money I need in my account--whether it's from my family paying me back or with the job. I only have like $5, and I'm saving it for a bit o' gas.
Mr. Stuff: I have the Waffle Iron Chronicles; I need the extra Mp3s, the ones that aren't zipped up.
Awww does'nt hunter and is fiance look like a sweet couple, I must say hunter you have done well there and if you don't mind me saying she's very cute. Personally speaking I have a thing for asia women/girls, they just have a certain character/look about them, if that makes sense.
Yeah, im kinda lucky with my fiance. She is beautiful, sexy, smart, funny, caring, lovable, knows many things in the house especially cooking. She said after we get married she will always take care of me and cook dishes that I want. She is sweet. Im gonna study hard and graduate so I can do my job of bein her future husband. I love her very much.
ZOMG. Please please please please please please please please please please please could someone play me on MagicWorkstation? Seriously, I need a good, reliable opponent.
How bout me fox?:cool: Care to take me on? *some action star look*

Episode 9: Episode IV: A New Hope
When last we left, Omna and Arguas were in a blissfully unaware state, when a sudden knock on the door startled them. Omna opened the door to come face to face with Sakura, who promptly ***** slaps her and pushes her back. Arguas jumps to his feet to defend her, but upon realizing Sakura is a woman flounders helplessly and does nothing as the vindictive Sakura pummels Omna into the shag carpet.
Suddenly, Omna smashes a champagne bottle over Sakura's head, winding her, and causing Arguas to shout out in praise to God that they had had the foresight to drink that evening.
Sakura picks herself up, and Arguas starts to call the police, but before he can finish, Sakura tells him she is pregnant with his baby. Omna apologizes for clonking his baby mama upside the head with a magnum of champagne, but Arguas, in a moment of confusion and anger, pushes Omna away, telling her he cannot forgive her for endangering the life of his unborn child.
In tears, Omna tears out of the apartment, and predictably, a sudden storm sweeps through the streets, leaving her soaked. She pauses to look behind her, and catches the silhouette of Arguas embracing Sakura in his arms, and she lets out a cry of anguish, moments before she is hit by a Honda Civic driven by none other than Joyd.
Joyd pauses for a moment to see if he should get out, but he sort of thinks that maybe he saw Omna wiggle her foot, so he figures she is fine, and then continues on his way to a late night meeting with his publisher to discuss writing a book about his experience as a spelunking sex slave in the Land of the Lost.
Omna rolls over and begins weeping despite being badly injured and unconscious. Her cries are heard by none other than Kraj, who picks her up and takes her back to his home. After treating her wounds and putting her in the spare room, he goes downstairs to meet with the Senator Strongbad. The two of them discuss how to increase revenue within the city, and Kraj then leaks information from Project Rumor Mill, a plan he stole from Photon. Strongbad is intrigued, and gives Kraj a grant to begin work on it, and signs a new law Kraj proposes to aid with the set up of Project Rumor Mill.
Meanwhile, Ether is hot on the trail of Photon, who cannot help but feel someone is watching him. In fact, he is so unsettled that he barely enjoy foreclosing on an old folks home and kicking them out into the streets, and in a foul mood he returns home for a shower. However, outside his building his is met by a band of reporters wanting to know what he feels about the new law signed into effect that evening- a law that makes it illegal to be Photon Eater within city limits. Feeling shocked and betrayed, he tries to flee, but is ambushed by more paparazzi, and is pulled to safety by Ether, who had been watching him from his vantage point underneath a fat woman eating ice cream.
Hiding beneath the woman's rippling cankles, the two men hide out until the paparazzi catches a whiff of Lindsey Lohan (a distinct odor of Smirnoff Ice, Red Bull, and a rapidly deteriorating sex appeal), and run off into the cold New York night in hot pursuit. Photon is angered to find Ether following him, but experiences a variety of near-grateful emotions when he realizes he saved him from the humiliation of being photographed without being properly coiffed first.
Photon asks him why he is after him, and Ether tells him he was hired to find out what he knows about Crimson's parentage. Photon refuses to tell him anything, but tells Ether he will hire him to escort him to the Hamptons, where he can formulate a counterstrike plan against Kraj.
Back at Photon's home, Crimson calls up Sapphire and interrupts her in the middle of stabbing a pillow with a photograph of Dora the Explorer taped to it. She tells him to leave her alone, because he interrupted her right as she was about to get her "happy time". Crimson begs her to come over, because he is feeling vulnerable, and no amount of checking his massive bank account online could cheer him up. She reluctantly agrees, but not before throwing the Dora pillow into a heavy steamer trunk and slamming it shut while screaming "You got LUCKY, *****!"
Crimson greets Sapphire and embraces her, causing the gun strapped to her thigh to go off and shoot her in her foot. Crimson races her to the hospital to be treated, and is told by the doctor that she needs a blood transfusion, because apparently there are veins in your foot or whatever. They say they need a family member to donate blood, and Sapphire weakly grasps Crimson by the throat and wrestles him to the floor, telling him he'll give her all the blood she needs or she'll smash his face in. Crimson submissively agrees.
Meanwhile, back in Tibet, Mamelon dusts herself off as a badly beaten Otaku Pupil collapses before her. She gets ready to deal the finishing blow, but Alacar jumps in the way and tells her to stop, telling her that there has been enough killing. Just then, Otaku Pupil whimpers, causing Mamelon to have a sudden flashback to when Shinobi was a toddler.
It is then that she realizes that Otaku Pupil IS Shinobi, only older and apparently from the future!
Back in New York, Kevinliu and Shinobi are busy taking part in a rigorous training montage, as Kevinliu shows Shinobi everything he knows. He tells Shinobi that he must train very hard if he is ever to defeat the evils of Phokraj, and Shinobi asks why it is so important? Kevinliu reluctantly tells him that in the future, everyone he knows is dead, especially Alacar, who was strapped to the back of formula 1 car and dragged over three miles before the car was crashed into a pile of Tanthalas' body parts and Ether's corpse. Shinobi is horrified by this information, and runs away, unable to handle the gravity of it all.
Mamelon and Otaku pupil talk about everything going on while they fly to Prague. Meanwhile, Alacar feels oddly uncomfortable, and has all sorts of disturbing thoughts about formula one racing, but says nothing because he doesn't want the invisible jet to crash.
They arrive in Prague, and land in the conveniantly placed airstrip in Psychoburner's driveway. They go inside his house and ask him to revive Snoop, and he tells him he will, but in exchange Alacar must be aware that when she comes back, she may not be the same person. Alacar consents, and Psychoburner begins his ghastly ritual.
Lightning strikes and all goes dark as a sudden, eerie voice calls out-
"Alacar, honey, why the hell did you let me take the bullet, you jerk?"
Next Episode:
Alacar: Your honor, I am filing for divorce on the grounds that my wife is a ***** and she eats human flesh! Snoop: Yeah, well, I am filing for divorce because my husband is more of a woman than I am! Alacar: You take that back, you Romero reject! Snoop: I most certainly will not, you simpering 1/1 creature! Alacar: ... oh my God, I totally get it now! She's not a zombie, she's possessed! BY PHOTON! Everyone: *gasp* GASP!
Omna: You see, I have terrible amnesia... Kraj: I see. Does that amnesia come with any unexplained super powers or eerily convenient killing skills? Omna: No... I don't think so... you see, I'm not an anime character... Kraj: Ah, of course, how silly of me.
Mamelon: This is serious then? The future is really in peril? Otaku Pupil: Of course! Now come on, we don't have much time! Kevinliu: Oh no... 34 minutes until Project Rumor Mill goes online. Mamelon: What can we do? Otaku Pupil: We have no choice. We can't let them get access to those Lorwyn spoilers! *pulls an electric guitar out of hammerspace* Kevinliu: Come here, Shinobi. Otaku Pupil: *slams Shinobi upside the head with guitar*
Crimson: Doctor, will she be alright? Doctor: No, not at all. Crimson: What, why? Doctor: It seems the accident has left her homicidal and out of touch with reality. Crimson: That was how she was when I brought her in. Doctor: Oh. In that case, she'll be fine. But if I were you, I would pick up a flak jacket down in the gift shop to wear on the car ride home.
Sakura: What shall we name the baby? Arguas: How about... Omna? Sakura: ... I'm cutting off your parental rights. Arguas: Fine! Then I'm cutting off your religious right! Sakura: That doesn't even make sense, sweetie. Arguas: You don't make sense, you abortionist!
Tune in next week for more excitement and mystery!
Hey everyone! I had a short work day today, so I'm pretty happy right now.
Not much to post, just a quick hello.
Also, has anyone ever heard of the anime Saint Tail? I'm curious because I noticed a copy in the Video area where I work. It appears to be the first 3 episodes, and even though it looks like a "pretty girl" anime ala Sailor Moon, etc. I'm intrigued.

I have. It's a pretty girl anime like Sailor Moon.
I've heard it has it's funny moments, though, and I've generally heard good things about it.

LOL Fantastic work, Photon Excellent as usual. Now that I have my site running I should get the Weeklies up to date probably tomorrow.
Ugh.. what an evening. I'm stuck babysitting my nephew for 3+ hours while my sister is in the hospital; she might even give birth tonight.. which means I'm stuck with him and I'm put into emergency mode. Lovely
Anyway, Ransom (my nephew; yes his name is Ransom) has been more or less a good kid tonight, but he is an eccentric three-year-old.. and I'm his playmate. So that means he's not even tired.
Just wanted to drop in and give a thumbs up on this week's Soap! Pop culture references are getting more obvious to me lately... FLCL this week eh? Definitely hilarious all around... Beware those Honda Civics!
In other news, not much is going on personally. What's new eh? Most of the town is basically all in murmurs about this stabbing at the local bar a couple nights ago along with two maniacs who slashed up a total of 35 cars' tires.
As for myself, I've been keeping out of that mess since the town is still on cop watch thanks to drug invasions (they've been randomly searching people's houses looking for drugs with warrants... its getting annoying) so I've been tryin to take more a listen to J-music in general. Ask Dreia - I've been going crazy with it lately. Great stuff and a change I needed with the lack of what I would call good stuff from here (the States).
Now now... when an anime character has amnesia, they are not necessarily going to have either a hidden past as a secret agent or super powers. We'll just forget that whole Dead Leaves thing ever happened. Err... and Soultaker. And Utawarerumono.
CA, what have you been listening to lately that got you into J-music? Just curious. I grab stuff from anime soundtracks mostly, but I have a little bit of Puffy Amiyumi, L'arc En Ciel, Morning Musume, and The Pillows.
As a side note, I really would like to forget that whole Dead Leaves thing ever happened. Ugh.

That totally reminds me I have to grab some Pillows stuff... but lately its been a bit of this and that - Maximum the Hormone, Hyde, Home Made Kozaku, Flow, Utada Hikaru, and a few mixed tracks that were covered on Ouendan 2 (ordered and recieved nicely) - The Checkers, Ken Hirai, Hitomi Yaida, etc. Need a bit more of the really hard stuff and a bit more of the really soft stuff... I'm oddly at balance when I listen to this stuff. But I'm mainly trying to listen to a bit of EVERYTHING to give it a chance.
@myta: goodluck in badminton and im sure all of us missed you too.
Well i just wanted to drop by and say good morning to you all. I am probably going to get ready for work in like an hour from now and then work for about 6 hours then come back. I might post in a little bit but if not see you all after i get back. Have a good day or night everyone! *hugs and blows kisses*

So far, it's played well, but no three-game matches yet. (Courtesy of sore losers on MWS.)
Hope all you guys are well! Toodles!
'Fox.
Nice deck i really like it it seems pretty innovative and evil.
I do have a suggestion though how about use compulsive research it could be nasty with careful study? You seem to be able to dump a whole bunch of instant cards in there and do massive damage right away once you discard them into the grave. Just a thought though.
Also i think damnation would be better to use then evacuation in the sideboard but thats probably just me. Fun deck though.
I am doing well fox thanks and i hope your doing well too.
See you all soon! *hugs and blows kisses*

Thanks, Kev! It's nice to hear people I consider experts praising my 'work'.
Sadly, Damnation is a sorcery, and therefore cannot be SVed. The reason that I play Careful Study over the Compulsive Research is that it costs less. If I'm getting 1 free instant per sorcery, I want to play as many sorceries at once as possible. In almost any other deck, the Research would be my preferred choice.
Surprisingly, Spellweave has not yet lost a game! Although most complicated combo decks are unreliable, I've drawn the combo all five games so far, and proceeded to win with it.
'Fox.
Your welcome!
Hehehe maybe you could use a couple of fact or fictions too since it also dumps a bunch of cards especially instants into the grave plus its a instant so you can cast it with volutes in the grave but i think frantic searches would be better then fact or fictions though in a deck like this. Yeah too bad damnation is not a instant and i see your point with evacuations as well. Overall it does look like a pretty nasty casual combo deck to play against.
A belated welcome to Elvenmage. We hope you like it here =)
Well, today's been a nice day so far. In between spurts of playing Kuzunoha Raidou (to get back into the Wasted City mood, no less), I went out with Josh for a little while. We had some lunch and he put money down on my other birthday present: Odin Sphere, an intriguiing action RPG by Atlus. I was originally going to get Seiken Densetsu 4/Dawn of Mana, but I heard so many awful things about it from so many different sources that I figured I might as well wait on it. If it's that bad it'll be twenty bucks by the end of June, so I can pick it up then.
@J-music: I've been getting back into it myself, actually. I realized earlier that Josh left all his ZWEI on this computer, so I've been listening to that, and getting back into Pierrot and Merry. I highly recommend both. Actually, I lent Josh's little sister Emily a large portion of my J-rock collection over the last two weeks and it seems we have frighteningly similar tastes. She took some select stuff from Luna Sea and TRAX, but literally devoured all my Pierrot music. Last Friday when we were out there, she wasn't without her Mp3 player all night; I could hear "Paradox" everywhere I went O_o;;
I would go with daybreak coronet.
Tarmogoyf could be a casual card too but its actually a pretty good threshold card in legacy. All of those brainstorms, dazes, force of wills, and serum visions can make the creature pretty big.
Ive also never seen or heard ugly betty of course probably because i dont want that much tv except the NBA playoffs.
Well i just wanted to stop by and say hello ill probalby post some more later tonight. Anyway see you all soon and i hope everyone had a good day today! *hugs and blows kisses to everyone* My day was pretty tiring though.

When last we left, Omna and Arguas were in a blissfully unaware state, when a sudden knock on the door startled them. Omna opened the door to come face to face with Sakura, who promptly ***** slaps her and pushes her back. Arguas jumps to his feet to defend her, but upon realizing Sakura is a woman flounders helplessly and does nothing as the vindictive Sakura pummels Omna into the shag carpet.
Suddenly, Omna smashes a champagne bottle over Sakura's head, winding her, and causing Arguas to shout out in praise to God that they had had the foresight to drink that evening.
Sakura picks herself up, and Arguas starts to call the police, but before he can finish, Sakura tells him she is pregnant with his baby. Omna apologizes for clonking his baby mama upside the head with a magnum of champagne, but Arguas, in a moment of confusion and anger, pushes Omna away, telling her he cannot forgive her for endangering the life of his unborn child.
In tears, Omna tears out of the apartment, and predictably, a sudden storm sweeps through the streets, leaving her soaked. She pauses to look behind her, and catches the silhouette of Arguas embracing Sakura in his arms, and she lets out a cry of anguish, moments before she is hit by a Honda Civic driven by none other than Joyd.
Joyd pauses for a moment to see if he should get out, but he sort of thinks that maybe he saw Omna wiggle her foot, so he figures she is fine, and then continues on his way to a late night meeting with his publisher to discuss writing a book about his experience as a spelunking sex slave in the Land of the Lost.
Omna rolls over and begins weeping despite being badly injured and unconscious. Her cries are heard by none other than Kraj, who picks her up and takes her back to his home. After treating her wounds and putting her in the spare room, he goes downstairs to meet with the Senator Strongbad. The two of them discuss how to increase revenue within the city, and Kraj then leaks information from Project Rumor Mill, a plan he stole from Photon. Strongbad is intrigued, and gives Kraj a grant to begin work on it, and signs a new law Kraj proposes to aid with the set up of Project Rumor Mill.
Meanwhile, Ether is hot on the trail of Photon, who cannot help but feel someone is watching him. In fact, he is so unsettled that he barely enjoy foreclosing on an old folks home and kicking them out into the streets, and in a foul mood he returns home for a shower. However, outside his building his is met by a band of reporters wanting to know what he feels about the new law signed into effect that evening- a law that makes it illegal to be Photon Eater within city limits. Feeling shocked and betrayed, he tries to flee, but is ambushed by more paparazzi, and is pulled to safety by Ether, who had been watching him from his vantage point underneath a fat woman eating ice cream.
Hiding beneath the woman's rippling cankles, the two men hide out until the paparazzi catches a whiff of Lindsey Lohan (a distinct odor of Smirnoff Ice, Red Bull, and a rapidly deteriorating sex appeal), and run off into the cold New York night in hot pursuit. Photon is angered to find Ether following him, but experiences a variety of near-grateful emotions when he realizes he saved him from the humiliation of being photographed without being properly coiffed first.
Photon asks him why he is after him, and Ether tells him he was hired to find out what he knows about Crimson's parentage. Photon refuses to tell him anything, but tells Ether he will hire him to escort him to the Hamptons, where he can formulate a counterstrike plan against Kraj.
Back at Photon's home, Crimson calls up Sapphire and interrupts her in the middle of stabbing a pillow with a photograph of Dora the Explorer taped to it. She tells him to leave her alone, because he interrupted her right as she was about to get her "happy time". Crimson begs her to come over, because he is feeling vulnerable, and no amount of checking his massive bank account online could cheer him up. She reluctantly agrees, but not before throwing the Dora pillow into a heavy steamer trunk and slamming it shut while screaming "You got LUCKY, *****!"
Crimson greets Sapphire and embraces her, causing the gun strapped to her thigh to go off and shoot her in her foot. Crimson races her to the hospital to be treated, and is told by the doctor that she needs a blood transfusion, because apparently there are veins in your foot or whatever. They say they need a family member to donate blood, and Sapphire weakly grasps Crimson by the throat and wrestles him to the floor, telling him he'll give her all the blood she needs or she'll smash his face in. Crimson submissively agrees.
Meanwhile, back in Tibet, Mamelon dusts herself off as a badly beaten Otaku Pupil collapses before her. She gets ready to deal the finishing blow, but Alacar jumps in the way and tells her to stop, telling her that there has been enough killing. Just then, Otaku Pupil whimpers, causing Mamelon to have a sudden flashback to when Shinobi was a toddler.
It is then that she realizes that Otaku Pupil IS Shinobi, only older and apparently from the future!
Back in New York, Kevinliu and Shinobi are busy taking part in a rigorous training montage, as Kevinliu shows Shinobi everything he knows. He tells Shinobi that he must train very hard if he is ever to defeat the evils of Phokraj, and Shinobi asks why it is so important? Kevinliu reluctantly tells him that in the future, everyone he knows is dead, especially Alacar, who was strapped to the back of formula 1 car and dragged over three miles before the car was crashed into a pile of Tanthalas' body parts and Ether's corpse. Shinobi is horrified by this information, and runs away, unable to handle the gravity of it all.
Mamelon and Otaku pupil talk about everything going on while they fly to Prague. Meanwhile, Alacar feels oddly uncomfortable, and has all sorts of disturbing thoughts about formula one racing, but says nothing because he doesn't want the invisible jet to crash.
They arrive in Prague, and land in the conveniantly placed airstrip in Psychoburner's driveway. They go inside his house and ask him to revive Snoop, and he tells him he will, but in exchange Alacar must be aware that when she comes back, she may not be the same person. Alacar consents, and Psychoburner begins his ghastly ritual.
Lightning strikes and all goes dark as a sudden, eerie voice calls out-
"Alacar, honey, why the hell did you let me take the bullet, you jerk?"
Next Episode:
Alacar: Your honor, I am filing for divorce on the grounds that my wife is a ***** and she eats human flesh!
Snoop: Yeah, well, I am filing for divorce because my husband is more of a woman than I am!
Alacar: You take that back, you Romero reject!
Snoop: I most certainly will not, you simpering 1/1 creature!
Alacar: ... oh my God, I totally get it now! She's not a zombie, she's possessed! BY PHOTON!
Everyone: *gasp* GASP!
Omna: You see, I have terrible amnesia...
Kraj: I see. Does that amnesia come with any unexplained super powers or eerily convenient killing skills?
Omna: No... I don't think so... you see, I'm not an anime character...
Kraj: Ah, of course, how silly of me.
Mamelon: This is serious then? The future is really in peril?
Otaku Pupil: Of course! Now come on, we don't have much time!
Kevinliu: Oh no... 34 minutes until Project Rumor Mill goes online.
Mamelon: What can we do?
Otaku Pupil: We have no choice. We can't let them get access to those Lorwyn spoilers! *pulls an electric guitar out of hammerspace*
Kevinliu: Come here, Shinobi.
Otaku Pupil: *slams Shinobi upside the head with guitar*
Crimson: Doctor, will she be alright?
Doctor: No, not at all.
Crimson: What, why?
Doctor: It seems the accident has left her homicidal and out of touch with reality.
Crimson: That was how she was when I brought her in.
Doctor: Oh. In that case, she'll be fine. But if I were you, I would pick up a flak jacket down in the gift shop to wear on the car ride home.
Sakura: What shall we name the baby?
Arguas: How about... Omna?
Sakura: ... I'm cutting off your parental rights.
Arguas: Fine! Then I'm cutting off your religious right!
Sakura: That doesn't even make sense, sweetie.
Arguas: You don't make sense, you abortionist!
Tune in next week for more excitement and mystery!

Not much to post, just a quick hello.
Also, has anyone ever heard of the anime Saint Tail? I'm curious because I noticed a copy in the Video area where I work. It appears to be the first 3 episodes, and even though it looks like a "pretty girl" anime ala Sailor Moon, etc. I'm intrigued.
I have. It's a pretty girl anime like Sailor Moon.
I've heard it has it's funny moments, though, and I've generally heard good things about it.
thanks. Goodluck on all your matches Kev. My yahoo messenger is not workin and Im figuring it out why. As soon as I have fixed it up then maybe we can talk again sometime.
@ Soap: Nice work again photon. I like the Dora The Explorer part with Sapphiretri..

She knows why.
Ugh.. what an evening. I'm stuck babysitting my nephew for 3+ hours while my sister is in the hospital; she might even give birth tonight.. which means I'm stuck with him and I'm put into emergency mode. Lovely
Anyway, Ransom (my nephew; yes his name is Ransom) has been more or less a good kid tonight, but he is an eccentric three-year-old.. and I'm his playmate. So that means he's not even tired.

In other news, not much is going on personally. What's new eh? Most of the town is basically all in murmurs about this stabbing at the local bar a couple nights ago along with two maniacs who slashed up a total of 35 cars' tires.
As for myself, I've been keeping out of that mess since the town is still on cop watch thanks to drug invasions (they've been randomly searching people's houses looking for drugs with warrants... its getting annoying) so I've been tryin to take more a listen to J-music in general. Ask Dreia - I've been going crazy with it lately. Great stuff and a change I needed with the lack of what I would call good stuff from here (the States).
CA, what have you been listening to lately that got you into J-music? Just curious. I grab stuff from anime soundtracks mostly, but I have a little bit of Puffy Amiyumi, L'arc En Ciel, Morning Musume, and The Pillows.
As a side note, I really would like to forget that whole Dead Leaves thing ever happened. Ugh.
That totally reminds me I have to grab some Pillows stuff... but lately its been a bit of this and that - Maximum the Hormone, Hyde, Home Made Kozaku, Flow, Utada Hikaru, and a few mixed tracks that were covered on Ouendan 2 (ordered and recieved nicely) - The Checkers, Ken Hirai, Hitomi Yaida, etc. Need a bit more of the really hard stuff and a bit more of the really soft stuff... I'm oddly at balance when I listen to this stuff.
I missed all of you guys. Hope you enjoyed your weekend.
Just dropped by to say hi. Be doing more of that frequently as I have so many things to accomplish for the Ateneo.

I might post in a little bit but if not see you all after i get back. Have a good day or night everyone! *hugs and blows kisses*

Nice deck i really like it it seems pretty innovative and evil.
I do have a suggestion though how about use compulsive research it could be nasty with careful study? You seem to be able to dump a whole bunch of instant cards in there and do massive damage right away once you discard them into the grave. Just a thought though.
Also i think damnation would be better to use then evacuation in the sideboard but thats probably just me. Fun deck though.
I am doing well fox thanks and i hope your doing well too.
See you all soon! *hugs and blows kisses*

Your welcome!
Hehehe maybe you could use a couple of fact or fictions too since it also dumps a bunch of cards especially instants into the grave plus its a instant so you can cast it with volutes in the grave but i think frantic searches would be better then fact or fictions though in a deck like this. Yeah too bad damnation is not a instant and i see your point with evacuations as well. Overall it does look like a pretty nasty casual combo deck to play against.

Cecilia

A belated welcome to Elvenmage. We hope you like it here =)
Well, today's been a nice day so far. In between spurts of playing Kuzunoha Raidou (to get back into the Wasted City mood, no less), I went out with Josh for a little while. We had some lunch and he put money down on my other birthday present: Odin Sphere, an intriguiing action RPG by Atlus. I was originally going to get Seiken Densetsu 4/Dawn of Mana, but I heard so many awful things about it from so many different sources that I figured I might as well wait on it. If it's that bad it'll be twenty bucks by the end of June, so I can pick it up then.
@J-music: I've been getting back into it myself, actually. I realized earlier that Josh left all his ZWEI on this computer, so I've been listening to that, and getting back into Pierrot and Merry. I highly recommend both. Actually, I lent Josh's little sister Emily a large portion of my J-rock collection over the last two weeks and it seems we have frighteningly similar tastes. She took some select stuff from Luna Sea and TRAX, but literally devoured all my Pierrot music. Last Friday when we were out there, she wasn't without her Mp3 player all night; I could hear "Paradox" everywhere I went O_o;;
