Hey guys, I'm planning to head to the Grand Prix in Vancouver, BC next weekend. If anyone wants me to keep an eye out for an elusive pimp card or get some things signed for you just drop me a PM.
Oh, and in related news, the foil Legendary Creature Project is complete: not only do I own every legendary creature ever printed, but I also have the original foil of every one that has ever been printed in foil. It's been a long road, but now it's done.
For 6 weeks. :/
At least the m13 ones are Intro Pack foils

I am racky54 on Cockatrice and I'm almost always up for a match
Indeed. That makes me happy, although I expect them to be a bit more difficult to trade for than other intro pack foils, at least locally. Regardless, it's good news.
Oh, Land Tax. You make me laugh.
Also, the M10 duals will be in M13; some people espoused the possibility that the allied color RAV lands would be in, but apparently not. Just means they'll spread out all 10 in the new block, it seems.
Double post merged and warning issued. Please edit your posts in the future.

That makes the most sense to me, another 4-3-3 release probably.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was a 4-3-3 release. I wish they could come up with something else though, maybe bolt lands (deals 3 instead of 2) but adds 2 instead of either/or.
i returned home from vacationing and instantly got sick. lame. but now i am healthy again and ready to rock. now i need to find a job move out of my parents house and get a girlfriend... i think im supposed to do something like that. but now im going to go play magic. l8er

I dunno, something like:
Blue/White Bolt Land

As ~ enters the battlefield, you may pay 3 life. If you don't, ~ enters the battlefield tapped.

Or even:
Double Blue Bolt Land

:symtap:: Add to your mana pool.
Pay 3 life, :symtap:: Add UU to your mana pool.
@ Being sick: LOL...I've had that happen so many times I lost count. I did though, move out of my parents years ago. Odd thing is, it's right next door to them.
so i went to play legacy on sunday and scrubbed out hard with belcher. im working on a griselbrand storm deck. so far i like it, im going to test it right now actually. if you want to see the list i posted it in the developing legacy decks section in the griselstorm thread.

@ earthpig: I see the mods have even gone more full cop on people in clan threads then they used to do... Warning for double post ^^
It happens. I didn't think it was a big deal since it had been like a week between posts, and editing doesn't change the timestamp on the thread so no one would have known that I edited the post without actually looking, but whatevs. It's just a message board; I have way too many other things to care about than that sort of thing.
Wow, I've been away so long that now Josh is coming back? That's awesome, yet sad that I've been so removed from buying cards. I've been doing a lot more playing over the past couple months than buying, and most of my finances are tied up due to the fact that I may finally become a property owner at the end of August if everything goes according to plan.
Hope everything's good with everyone else, and I assure you I will be back to the buying provided this townhouse deal goes off without a hitch (and then I'll have more space to store cards, too)!
Also, I picked up a small collection from a coworker recently, and may use some of that to power a rejuvenated sales list if I can just find the time to update it or unretire it if that's necessary.
Lol bump from me too for being out of it for awhile, for the last couple months at least. Real life precedence like Aardvark said Just poppin in here to say hello!
Glad to see some of our old-timers coming back. Missed ya all! I've been busy as well and lemme tell ya, it hasn't been fun! LOL
@Casual: Yes, you can. And the mods are much more strict with our clan because of it's nature of trades and whatnot.
EDIT: And at least it's just a warning and not an infraction. Those aren't too big of a deal.
ANOTHER EDIT: cheesen has applied to the guild. Please note that he will be added as soon as I can get around to it, but he is a part of the guild. Also, once I am able to, I am going to revamp the rules a bit with, of course, your guys assistance. I just need to make them a bit more clear and concise.
So....upcoming spoiler alert...anyone looking forward to Return to Ravnica? *Clasps hands and counts coins like a greedy CEO*
----------------------------
ALSO, so I don't get hit with a double-post warning/infraction, I am going to post this here under the spoiler. Please note that if ANY clan member wishes to update it to better suit the clan, please feel free to offer your advice/perspective!
WHO WE ARE
The Merchants' Guild is about people who share an interesting in buying, selling and trading M:tG cards. This can be from here (MTGSalvation), eBay, in person, or on MTGO. Just because we are a Buy/Sell/Trade community, we all have other interests that we discuss as well!
ABOUT OUR MEMBERS
Each member is screened through our application process. This is to ensure that the members are 100% legit and not banned members or rippers. So when you submit an application, it can take as little as 24 hours, to as long as 3 days. Some of our members even offer guild exclusive trade/sell discounts!
RULES
While anyone can ultimately join the guild, we do have rules that MUST be adhered to. Please read the following:
I. Each member must have at least 150 posts -OR- been a member of the forum for at least 6 months.
II. No BTRs (Bad Trade Reports) against you within the past 3 months.
III. Cannot be tradebanned or suspended from trading.
IV. No trading/bartering/brokering is allowed in the guild area. It can ONLY be done in the Market Street area OR via PMs. (If you do such in the guild area, you MAY get infracted for it!)
V. Any specials/deals that members wish to offer to other guild members must be listed in their Trade/Sales threads and not here. If you wish to make it known, you may make a post stating "Hey, I have deals for guild members on my _____ list under "Clan Deals" (or whatever). Feel free to check them out." Doing this, however, on a constant basis, without other substantial post data may get you a warning/infraction for spam.
VI. Please try to make 5 posts a month here (Not required, but nice to know your alive!)
They will be reprinted. Value-wise, they will likely spike immediately, then settle back down and eventually lower further due to increased supply. At least, that's what I see happening.
As it so happens, I will be in vegas that (this) weekend, so...will contemplate hitting up the mtg event instead of the tables, such a hard choice, gah
So....upcoming spoiler alert...anyone looking forward to Return to Ravnica? *Clasps hands and counts coins like a greedy CEO*
I am very much looking forward to the return, and I'm hopeful that even with the changing mechanics, it will remain a similar drafting/sealed experience to the original block. I will probably end up forgoing most of M13 just to gear up for RTR.
I hope they reprint the shocks. It'll let me finish up sets of them that I never got back when they could be had for $4-5, and even if the reprint hurts the value, I'll still be happy to have and play with the originals for the most part. Perhaps this will be the opportunity that Wizards will seize to at least quell the whining from Modern players about reprinting staples ("Why didn't they reprint everything right away!? They said they would...waah").
Does anyone have an idea why they decided to mix allied and enemy color combinations in the forthcoming sets as opposed to leaving them in the same release order as Ravnica? I'm not for or against it in any way, but it seemed like a curious decision.
hell yeah dresden hit me up if you go to play magic. i might play gambling on saturday or i might trade, and i'll be there for legacy sunday for sure. i built this amazing griselbrand storm deck that reanimates him with shallow grave and storms out. its really amazing. but it gets hated out after sideboarding so i need to figure out a sideboard for it. i'm determined to dominate.
i think they will reprint the shocklands. and i think its a good move for wizards because it will sell a lot of packs and hype modern. hopefully they print some awesome cards to shape modern into an awesome format. considering they develop sets about a year before they are released, and assuming modern wasnt scheduled way in advanced, the sets they designed with modern in mind probably havent come out yet. it will be interesting to see what direction they go.

Good, welcome back! I've been wondering where you went... (was looking to trade with you several times a few months ago :-/)

That said, I am in the process of getting a bunch of Beta Scathe Zombies and Mons's Goblin Raiders. YESSSSS.

EDH, mostly. I don't play Legacy. I just like the thought of throwing Scathe Zombies out and confusing people.
