High mages are veteran Izzet members who've been here a long time and are well respected for their posting habits.
Acolytes are next down the chain. They've been around for a while and serve as a bridge between apprenticeship and High Magery.
Apprentices are newer members who've generally yet to prove themselves.
Each High Mage has at most one Acolyte and one Apprentice. When all current High Mages have an Acolyte and an Apprentice and a new member wishes to join, one Acolyte will be promoted to the position of High Mage, making the Apprentice under them an Acolyte and another Apprentice their Acolyte as well.

I need the surgeries due to my jaw isn't properly allined. I don't roller blade, I figure skate, the skating had nothing to do with it actually.
The first was the wisdom teeth removal, plus two bicuspids, which was supposed to be easy but on friday i woke up near tears so we called and I got squeezed in. They put 4 clove strips in the sockets to try to cure it. I go in tomorrow to have those taken out and new ones put back in. (most likely).
The second surgery is a major jaw surgery which I will not explain in this post I'll make a blog post later.
But I had complications to my teeth extraction so I've constantly been keeping ice on my face in various places to keep swelling down, I've bruised in two spots on my face and I look like a chipmunk. Buuuuut eh, it happens.

That really sucks, DF. You have my condolences, and I hope you will feel better soon, and that the pain you feel now will make life afterwards that much sweeter.
I AM SOOOOOO EXCITED FOR LORWYN! OMFGWTFFBBFQ!!! *smacks self across the face*
Oh yeah...:bump:
EDIT @ EVERYONE: CHANGE YOUR SIG LINKS NOOAOOAOAAAWWWWW!
@DF: i had my wisdom teeth cut out, so i know what it's like to look like a chipmunk and how much it sucks. i feel for ya, but i'm sure you'll pull through just fine. and you'll be back to slingin card board and ice before you know it.
I believe this is the earliest I've ever posted on a clan thread. LOL
Anyway, anybody got suggestions for my UGr Thresh/NQGr deck? I'm looking at messing around with a new creature and maybe revamping the cantrip package. I guess I'll repost the decklist:
And AI, I didn't recognize you, YOU CHANGED YOUR AVATAR ON ME. * DarknessFalls cries
Don't cry, DF. That is Lenna's beautiful artwork.
I like UGr Threshold, too. I will warn you, though. I haven't paid attention to Legacy since Flash was banned. I would try something like this configuration (from your list):
I played Werebear before the release of Tarmogoyf. He always treated me well. Mental Note kicks ass in the deck for quick Threshold and large Tarmogoyfs. I think Ponder has a place once it's released, but I'm not sure where.
Wow, was I ever slow upon the return of this thread. I suppose this has happened before, but usually due to BD's thousand posts per page.
LORWYN FOR THE WYN!!!
Edit:
Quote from Rocram »
EDIT: Wow, its a little **** combo, but it may work... try to get into play a dovescape and guile(from the new set)... you will get infinite birds...and a draw because the game enters in a loop... but if you can avoid the counter for only one time... you get infinite birds!
Tell that to BD... *Reminisces* oh, that Dovescape lunatic...

FAERIES! As heterosexual as I am, I must say that the little blue buddies are going to be *ahem* beastly in both limited and constructed! I'm going to be playing them for states, methinks...
Edit: Bardu: Again, you know the question. Any further developments, or are we as we are for this contest? I WANT TO GET TO THE NEXT CONTEST!!!

I suppose you should, we'll get some points from this, and we need to get on to the next contest... NAO!
Is anyone as dissapointed with the Boggart (as a whole, some is cool) art as I am? Most look less like gobboes and more like upright dogs... wtf?! I know they're from a different and new world, and technically are not goblins but boggarts, but still, they have creature type goblin and they should look less ******! Oh well, what's done is done I guess...
Edit: Goatnapper, by the way, is teh zhitz0rs. Majorly! GOATS/SHEEP!
Yeah, the arts for some are indeed good looking, I personally really like... uh... damn the name eludes me. I'll find it tomorrow, as I'm off for the night to manifest some decklists from the cards I've now got stored in the brain! HAHAHAHA!

Hey, Master Ravus: you need to change the link in your sig.
btw, when we need to change thread title again, no voting please. We just NEEEED to go with [The Izzet] 42 Purple Ninja Potatoes. :D:D:D
So, what about Lorwyn? I'm trying to decide myself between a Faerie 'Force Spike Faerie'+Familiar's Ruse deck or a Goblin Shenanigans+Tarfire+Boggart Birth Rite deck.
I love limited, so I'm pretty happy. I tend to have problems with constructed, actually, but whether it is my playing ability (doubt it-I dominate limited) or my deck-making ability (which doesn't make sense either, 'cause I dominate limited) is unclear.
after seeing the full spoiler, i cannot wait for saturday. i can't even begin to guess what i'm going to end up building from my sealed pool, or what i'll draft (assuming i make top 8). everything looks oh so good. this is gonna be so much fun!!
I posted in my blog about the surgeries and stuff...Haven't updated it with the news i found out from my dr appointment today.
STUPID INFECTIONS.
They put me on penicillin to get rid of the knot on the side of my face.
And then I crashed from 6pm est to 11pm est.
And i didn't say it wasn't pretty it's just he changed it on me.
Btw, AI, how're things with the girl? I hope they all went over well from the THREE PMS you sent. kidding still love ya bud.

Don't cry, DF. That is Lenna's beautiful artwork.
I like UGr Threshold, too. I will warn you, though. I haven't paid attention to Legacy since Flash was banned. I would try something like this configuration (from your list):
-3 Spell Snare
-3 Quirion Dryad
-1 Predict
+4 Mental Note
+3 Werebear
I played Werebear before the release of Tarmogoyf. He always treated me well. Mental Note kicks ass in the deck for quick Threshold and large Tarmogoyfs. I think Ponder has a place once it's released, but I'm not sure where.
LORWYN FOR THE WYN!!!

The only card I really want a set of from Lorwyn is Thoughtseize. I hope to play it in combination with Cabal Therapy in extended.
That really sucks, DF. Hope you get better from the pain.
