DUX, why does care about things coming back from the gy, flavourfully? Also, double colour in the casting cost is out; our cards already want double
TO THE BATCAVE, DUX!
Looking forward to seeing what that camera does, Charlie
eds - oh yes, I just watched Alien again for the first time in ages. Aurelia had never seen it, shock horror Anyway. Still damned good flick, only a bit dated with the rubber-suit action. JONESIE IS WATCHING YOU DIE @_@"
If you are playing the deck as a T2 deck, do NOT run Tarfire. Run Shock. Tarfire just buffs opposing 'Goyfs.
I don't know about Giantbaiting.
Agreed on the Tarfire issue. Giantbaiting seems very powerful, and I have to admit a 4/4 haste token that dies at end of turn for 2G is quite nice. That it can be conspired, and that it's a Warrior, and that it can also be red, makes it very solid. But I haven't been selling them very fast, so I don't know if it's really making a lot of decks yet.
Funny, but only in the this-might-get-infracted kinda way.
I opted out of the batcave. I feel like a bad person, but that's probably because I am. Mostly I just got tired of being woken up by MSN informing me I had yet another email, every 30 minutes or so.
My pride and joy, 6 years old as of the other day, Gavin. He's using the rod I got him for his 5th birthday. He caught nothing. The sun got pretty bright and hot and he, his brother, and his cousin all started asking if we could go back to the cabin for drinks. I remember being too impatient to catch fish, too. At least my uncle in the canoe caught some, and the boys got to see them gutted and such.
I let Everett hold my rod a bit. I didn't even get a nipple.
Being a goof around the campfire the first night. I was hanging out with my cousin and my brother after the kids went to bed.
On the last night, we took a sauna. I swear I wasn't b:symg:ked, yet!
The aforementioned pic which is also up on Facebook. Everett saw me smashing logs with a giant rock and decided to emulate it. Glad I had my camera handy, great pic! This was on his 4th birthday. We made him a cake and stuff, he had fun.

It's called turning off email notification
eds - jj, I posted today.
Cyan, have you received?
Does anyone have Laika's email?
mo'eds - Daron, did you have any ideas for this round of the Clan Contest (the criteria are in that post of mine that you quoted)? You're all-time big-big creative card-makin' guy. . .
It's called turning off email notification
True, true. I guess it wasn't just the emails, then. I didn't like having to check two places to make sure I was caught up on things. Then again, now that I'm only checking one place, I'm never really going to be caught up on things, am I? Blah.
[QUOTE=rianalnn;/comments/10082399]Does anyone have Laika's email?
Check yours - I've sent you something on his behalf.
Daron, did you have any ideas for this round of the Clan Contest (the criteria are in that post of mine that you quoted)? You're all-time big-big creative card-makin' guy. . .
Using the two cards you just received, design a non-permanent spell this round. The spell needs to be an uncommon instant or sorcery that would support the two creatures if they were all in the same deck. It must be a different color and it must be monocolor. The power level should be appropriate for a decent but not "must have" uncommon. The spell should assist the strategy of a deck that is trying to win with the two creatures with an effect(s) that feels very on-color for the color the spell is.
Shauku's Familiar
Creature - Snake (R)
Provoke
:symb:, Pay 2 life: Return Shauku's Familiar from your graveyard to play. It gains haste. Sacrifice it at end of turn.
2/1
Shauku's Grunt
Creature - Zombie Minion (C)
:symb:, Pay 3 life: Return Shauku’s Grunt from your graveyard to play. It gains first strike. Sacrifice it at end of turn.
3/2
Alrighty. The two creatures don't have much at all in common - just that they both allow you to pay life and mana to return them from the graveyard to play until end of turn. We need an instant or sorcery in :symr:, :symg:, :symw:, or which compliments that.
Talk about slim pickins. We're going to have to be creative.
First thought, green. Green has to do with life, the graveyard, AND creatures. It's 3 for 3, essentially. White, to a lesser degree, could work. Red seems questionable, and blue is pretty much right out. Unfortunately, green isn't really the instant and sorcery colour - that honour goes to blue and/or red.
Ideas, hmmmm.
Triggered stuff can't work on an instant or sorcery, which is too bad, because we could have a "whenever a creature comes into play from your graveyard" or 'whenever you pay an activation cost of a creature in your graveyard" type thing.
The more I think about it, the less I think a sorcery would work. The Grunt doesn't gain haste when you return him to play, so he's essentially just a 3 power blocker for 5 mana and 3 life. When would you EVER pay 5 mana and 3 life to get a chump blocker that dies at end of turn? Ugh, what a horrible card. Nevermind, it's all we have to work with. But like I was saying, this guy can only be "played as an instant" for blocking purposes, unless you have Fervor out or something, but we'll ignore that possibility. Bottom line: only an instant will really work nicely with the ability.
Okay, here's one.
Infuse Corpse -
Instant (U)
You may play the activated abilities of target creature card in a graveyard without paying their costs until end of turn.
Potential problem: It might be too broken with other cards already printed.
An alternative version would cost but read "You may play the activated abilities of creature cards in graveyards without paying their costs until end of turn."
The mana cost is flexible of course. I don't know how playable they'd be if they cost more, but we also don't want them broken. Just playable.
I did managed to think of a sorcery that could be useful, but I believe it's far too similar to Entomb and Buried Alive.
Together Forever -
Sorcery (U)
Search your library for up to two creature cards and put them into your graveyard. Then shuffle your library.
No, wait!
Body Dump -
Instant (U)
Put the top X cards of your library into your graveyard.
You gain life equal to the number of creature cards put into your graveyard this way.
It feels close, but I think it needs just a little something more to make it shiny.
Yay, Laika didn't die Thanks for passing along the message, D, now shopping spree. . . if you talk to mista Dan again, tell him to please come by here @ ninjakitty + say something about his piece! It's a different beast IRL, + I am a sucker for feedback
Clan Contest: remember you can wait until your opponent's End-of-Turn, activate the 3/3, so he comes in, can attack on your turn, + then dies at your end of turn.
You're hitting close to things I looked at in with the Buried Alive variant. Problem there is it doesn't make these guys any better, since they cost more to play from the graveyard (since you have to pay life, too). The play-for-free just smells like trouble, as do most things free - I thought maybe a mana spell that could only be used on activated abilities + cantriped, but here are the things we have discussed;
my idea - Noble Sacrifice :2mana::symw:
Instant (U)
Sacrifice X creatures and choose one - gain X life; or remove X creatures from the game until end of turn.
Entwine
- trying to get a Flicker effect going to make your guys forget they want to die, + some life gain to offset the pain. Cyan didn't like that removed creatures could return, DUX didn't like that it wasn't straightforward. I like it 'cos it's a skilltester, but also 'cos I was pretty excited to use this art
DUX' idea - Blood-Thirst Retribution - (or :symw:, since red doesn't normally care about reanimation)
Instant (U)
When a creature is returned from a graveyard to pay it gains double strike until end of turn.
- problems here being the instant-setting-up-a-trigger, + the fact that there is no way to make this card work with the non-haste guy (it will lose doublestrike when your opponents turn ends if you use the EoT step trick, or didn't come out of your graveyard if you play it on your turn).
Travis' idea - Temporal Exchange :1mana::symu:
Sorcery
You and target opponent each chose a creature you control. Exchange control
of those creatures. (this effect does not stop at EOT
- seems undercosted for what it does (see Gilded Drake, which guarantees a 3/3 flier for your opponent), + usually these effects are rare. Not hard to bump up the cost, but I don't really want to make ANOTHER card >_<
ninjaeds - I almost forgot; the cards passed to us this round use different frames; one is old school, the other the current frames, so we joked about doing a hybrid half/half frame, or the normal Future Shifted one.
triple eds - hey jj, you gots to weigh in on this shebangzo too
"Blah blee bloo you can't go to a concert in sydney even though it's the only all ages one of one of your favourite bands because you're not old enough and we don't need to give a good reason because we're always right and you're always wrong!".
don't you hate parents? because I sure hate mine. I swear, second, third time they've done this to me? coheed and cambria, band of horses, now death cab for cutie. If they do the same for Paul McCartney I actually will hurt them. Or at least break things. Like thumbs.
Charlie....the reason your parents won't let you go is that your avatar is making them so aggrevated that they can't see letting anyone with that as a representaion of themselves be trusted on a trek of such magnitude. I seriously believe that may be the reason for their decision.....that being said, Paul McCartney is a little more their cup o' joe and would understand the greatness of seeing him live.
I'll go through and see the crap we have to work with.....
to the batcave i guess.....
So yeah....I chimed in on the contest over at the batcave.....I know it's got a little pwer to it but so did Eternal Witness and that was a green uncommon.
I like the idea of the card frame....sounds like a good idea.
So I'm 3-2 in the Salvation Tourny.....I'm excited....I hope I can X-0 through round 7 and get into some kind of top whatever!

Apparently 'over and over again' means the same thing as 'a couple of times today'...and I didn't say anything back because it was like 7 hours after you messaged me that I got home.
Other than that, stop taking the Viagra, clearly it's affecting your behavior.
Yeah, I've actually been mostly sleeping during "normal" hours of late, so that doesn't mean well for my being around when you are Brian.
Sorry in general for not being around much lately. I just haven't had much to post. Basically, I'm only ever going to check this thread, which means that between rules being on other threads and ideas being in the batcave, I have little to no idea what's going on. So yeah, that's me.
Been enjoying my summer though. I'm sure I'll have some fun stories to share with you all before too long.

Sacrifice any number of creatures. Gain life equal to the combined power of those creatures.

First one obv helps you pay the alternate cost on dudes. Also fun for the millions of other activated ablies out there.
Second one gives you back any life you spent de-gy'ing, + since said dudes are going to die anyhow, no real loss.
Not bad, not bad. I love cantrips, lordy do I ever, but I'm thinking for an even tastier tie-in with the creatures we're designing around, how about some lifegain instead?
You're so..... so........ so acceptance-seeking lately. Everyt'ing aighree?
Yeah, I said I like it, I like them both. I had a 1/1 elf for a while back, that tapped for one of any colour that could only be spent on activated abilities. So yeah, the greeny's cool. The drawback is harsh but the extra card makes up for it, and of course, you build your deck around it. Perfect uncommon material. Like I said, lifegain would be even more of a tie-in with the crappy black creatures. There's a risk of going TOO specialized, I guess. I'm undecided.
The throat-cutting one has more of a universal appeal, I guess. Who WOULDN'T want that in a white weenie deck? End of turn, sac all my mens for 8 life, draw a card, untap, draw a card, ***.
You're so..... so........ so acceptance-seeking lately. Everyt'ing aighree?
Eh? I'm being an ass, if anything. We've done so much back + forth over this round, with a lot of ignoring suggestions + making ones that don't even work *glare @ jj + DUX*
The zombie isn't even playable in a constructed deck, much less worth building around @_@<-m--
I like the white one, it may actually help the cards be playable and would be playable on it's own
That's the spirit. Now I need ~70 characters worth of flavour text along the lines of "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country" (which is just a little too long )

The throat-cutting one has more of a universal appeal, I guess. Who WOULDN'T want that in a white weenie deck? End of turn, sac all my mens for 8 life, draw a card, untap, draw a card, ***.
