I have learned that my sister's digital camera has absolutely no control over f.stop or shutter speed. Best you can do are these stupid little preset combinations in hope it's what you want. Now, I wasn't expecting much from the little thing, but come -on-.
I did have hopes of taking some night shots and star shots to show you all. I'll still be doing them in the coming week, but they'll take a while. Le sigh.

That's the trade-off you get with most digital cameras - you can take all the pictures you want, but you have no control over the artistic quality of what you are shooting, which is a damn shame. I used to have a regular Nikon camera, a good one too, but it broke about a year ago. Now I've got a ****** Nikon digital and miss my regular camera so very much.
I'm home sick again. My allergies have gone berserk these past two days and I hate it. I hate it to death.
I'm not a huge fan of Dr. Pepper.. I like Mr. Pibb tho, and naturally Coke and Sprite
Anyway, I just met Albert Paley, the guy who did a huge sculpture called the Sentinel on our campus, and it was very cool... the President of RIT recognized me too, as we had met a few times..
Anyway, I'm at work so I need to get going to do that stuff.
*hissing intake of breath*
Speak not unto me of this evil, foul creature, lest I be forced to exorcise thee, that thine own soul might bask in the holy light that is Dr. Pepper. Thou hast been warned.
Whoo, rough day at work for me today. I had an extra class come in that wasn't on the schedule, so I taught the last part of the day from 6:00-9:20 with no break whatsoever in between classes. I taught all day before that, too, so...uaaaaah, tsukareta (I'm tired).
And yes, no incantatrix for you. Or anyone. That class makes puppies cry. Mostly because they are the former Big Bads who have been Baleful Polymorphed into said puppies. By you. Because you're an incantatrix.

I suppose it's true. Though the logistics implied in a human/Great Wyrm Prismatic Dragon pairing makes me shudder.
...Something tells me that even should all arcane casters in the world unite, that the Grease spell would NOT be sufficient.
That forum was in aweful shape, but I am in the process of fixing it.:)
With my help essentially. Although I wish I can help out alot more I just haven't really have all of the time in the world like I used to. However I imagine there will be more people trying to fix the legacy forums over there. That would be cool if Aok chips in a bit it is my opinion that I think she will be of some big help over there as well.
I seem to be some people's legacy savior these days lol. Anyway off to studying for me once again see you all later.
Hi everyone, sorry I havent been around the last couple of days work has been kicking my ass. I have worked 36 out of the last 48 hours and only slept 2 of the rest of it. I have jobs lined up till middle of next week. I am very glad to be getting the maintenance work, changes up the every day mowing work, but good grief this is silly. In 2 days I have installed 3 door closeures, 2 mop sinks and a 220 outlet for a drink cooler. I have also built a porch a divider wall in one of the stores and changed 42 eight foot flourecent lights and 11 ballists. Got six more stores to service between now and sunday, and then next week I have 4 stores lined up for maintenance work as well. Its like someone opened a flood gate on work for me! Good for my wallet, bad for my fishing and magic time. Anyway I sure hope everyone in here is doing well, I am taking a short break before I head back out to work. Have a good one! Ill be back.:cool2:

I'm home sick again. My allergies have gone berserk these past two days and I hate it. I hate it to death.
I know how it is. If I ever get a digital camera, it will be the SLR-based cameras that give you full control over f.stop and s.speed. Y'know the ones. They look like a film camera but are actually digital. But those things cost about $600. I'd like to own one, so I could have a camera to work with when I have a roll in my film camera that I don't want to remove.
That forum was in aweful shape, but I am in the process of fixing it.:)
I'll be honest. I used to like 'News. But I find that the site is just plain dead at this point, and no one on their end feels like admitting it. Instead of letting the forum die gracefully, they've tried to keep it going. It's just not going to happen at this point. 'Salvation is too successful, and anyone that goes there quickly learns about this site and comes here instead. It's sad, but there's not much to be done.
I just wish we could do now what we should have done three years ago. Combine the two sites, have everyone at the same place, and be happy.
Well, I've decided what I'd use this digital camera for. I don't like the pictures all that much, since I didn't actually have to work at them. It's a point and click thing. I think I'd use it to get initial shots, check light levels and all that, before I take full-on pictures.
I took these in about thirty seconds in my back yard.
I had something I had to do afterwards, otherwise I'd have taken the same pictures (more or less) with my film cam. I'll do so soon.
With my help essentially. Although I wish I can help out alot more I just haven't really have all of the time in the world like I used to. However I imagine there will be more people trying to fix the legacy forums over there.

I wouldnt go as far as that, but I do appreciate your help:).

The site isnt dead. Its gaining speed actually and I like it there alot.
Even though it may be a good idea, I honestly doubt combining the two websites would ever happen.
I wouldnt go as far as that, but I do appreciate your help:).
Hence the sarcasm so yeah I was only joking. But by the looks of your private messages you did seem like you wanted my help quite a bit though I could be wrong but that was my first impression. However the internet is loaded with false impressions.
Yeah i know you appeciate me helping you which is why you pmed me about helping you over there. Honestly I don't mind helping you over there since all of the mods seem pretty down to earth and etc. Like everyone over there seem to respect my card choices for decks but at the sametime they try to help out. Yeah i dont think combining the websites would ever be possible either that would be wild if it ever did happen though.
By the way, I now have a deviantART account. Simply because I feel I have enough good pictures to actually open one up. And since I plan on taking many more pictures in the future...
Two points to anyone that can find my account on their own. To the rest of you, click here.
I think my work at mtgsnews is done for legacy though. I don't think psiblast further needs me there to contribute it seems to be picking up pace anyway. Besides I want to stay away from MD since he pretty much cussed me(with racial words) out about winning the best legacy strategist award over aol messenger and so I don't need to deal with that kind of crap again.
Other then that I am doing pretty good though. I am trying to finish up module 4 pretty soon as well for my pharmacy program.

Dont be afraid to post on News' because of MD. I assure you he wont say anything bad to you or about you. If he does he wont be around long.
If you come up with any new deck or feel you need to post something over there please do so.:)

Well its not like I am afraid of him since I am not afraid of anyone. In fact I wanted to cuss him out back but decided not to since I don't need to lower myself to his level. I just think what he said was uncalled for. He just took the legacy forum awards way too seriously more then me or even emidln.

Still dont let MD keep you away from over there. I always like to see your new ideas and suggestions:).
Glad to see you are doing well, and with a new bass pedal. I've broken 3 of my friends already :uhh:. Those things break a lot.
I'm doing well. My allergies have been wreaking havoc the past few days, but I'm much better now.
How is the chemo going VSA?
I can sympathise bro. I'm sitting here sneezing my bloody head off thanks to my allergies. A front is moving through; going to rain tomorrow, so today, tomorrow and probably Friday I get to be miserable.
I hate spring
I just got my final grades for the semester.. and I managed to pull that blasted C in logic. Huzzah! Huzzah! HUZAAH!! My GPA is safe!
I managed to finish the semester with an A, B and C, which is good enough to raise my GPA a hair more as I inch my way back to a 3.5. Right now I'm sitting on a 3.245 cumulative -- slowly but surely fixing it from when I screwed up a class that took my GPA from 3.667 to 2.997
Funny story about Logic class however. I was scheduled to make up the first exam just the other day, as I missed it when I was ill. Instead of giving me the entire test, however, he instructed me to pick any one problem from section one, and any one from section two, and do them.
He called this the "quick and easy way." I suppose I did well on that as well as my project plus extra credit. Don't care how it happened, just that I got my bloody C and saved my GPA from a second fall from grace. !! !!

I don't have any hard numbers on this, but I'm targeted more often than a black guy driving a beat-up sedan with a broken tail-light and no license plate, and Cy's well aware of that.
Mishra's Factory: A land that can be a threat that doesn't need to be cast is one of the main focal points to landstill since you can just play Mishra's factory underneath a standstill to win games.
Eternal Dragon: Acts like a mana fixer as well as a big finisher mid to late game.
Living Wish: A powerful card since it is very versatile considering Living wish can grab you threats, removal, or even utility lands.
Pernicious Deed: The most used board sweeper in legacy and is one of the main reasons why 4c landstill is successful against decks like threshold and goblins.
Decree of justice: The ablity to cycle threats under a standstill is just brilliant. Decree of justice is one of the best finishers in landstill.
Force of will: Probably one of the best cards in magic and there is nothing more to add.
Engineered explosives: Not as mana intensive as pernicious deed and acts like a cost efficient removal spell.
Brainstorm: The best cantrip(card filter) spell in legacy.
Standstill: Standstill is the only reason why landstill is still a viable control deck option in legacy. A great control deck always needs a superb draw engine.
Fact or fiction: I would almost always recommend running at least a pair of fact or fiction since it makes your standstills flawless as well as it can turn around any game.
Crucible of worlds: Your able to bring back any land you want all underneath standstill which is a powerful asset in landstill.
Sideboard Card Choices:
Maze of ith: A zero casting cost swords to plowshares pretty much and you can even play under a standstill. You can pretty much ignore a tarmogoyf with maze of ith and play your standstill in a good fashion.
Loxodon Hierarch: With all of those aggro decks running around Hierarch is a good beater and a good gain lifer that can change a course of a aggro, aggro-control match.
Gaddock Teeg: Great against combo like ichorid(dread return), fetchland tendrils, cephalid breakfast(dread return) and more.
Meddling Mage: Pretty much the same as Teeg regarding the combo matchup.
Extirpate: Great against ichorid since you can remove their bridge from belows as well as its a good card in just about any other matchup.
Engineered Plague: Good for goblins, goblin storm tokens(empty the warrens) and etc.
Wasteland: Knocks out threshold's manabase out of commission and good against anything else that run alot of non-basic lands.
Academy Ruins: Brings back EE(engineered explosives) as a reuseable removal spell.
Shriekmaw: Has good evasion with fear and can act like a psuodo-smother.
Cards I am considering:
Crime//punishment: A upgrade of Engineered explosives but can be more flexible since it can be out of the casting cost range of counterbalance in threshold and other aggro-control decks. Also it's more flexible since it can't be stifled as well.
Moat: Psiblast suggested this on mtgnews and I am considering it because I can fetch quite a few threats that are flying with living wish. Also moat is great against threshold, goblins, ichorid, and much more.
Mystic Enforcer: A great cost efficient beater in the mid to late game.
well I hope you guys enjoyed my legacy of the week!
I did have hopes of taking some night shots and star shots to show you all. I'll still be doing them in the coming week, but they'll take a while. Le sigh.
