Probably the copies of Nix - I'm not sure how you're getting the blue mana to cast it anyway, and Chancellor does the job of nixing (pardon the pun) a turn 0 disruption spell to begin with, since you don't have to get extra mana out of your combo to do so.

Seriously, TGIF. Week from hell. I hate when the week seems exponentially longer than it should be.
Doing race the bar tomorrow and should be fun. Someone had the great idea of mixing a bar hop with a 5k. Oh, and a good number of people cosplay to do it. I wish I was creative and could design costumes.

.
same here, been in week of hell many times and i am always glad it's friday
and i have 5 decks, 3 EDH, well tuned, but still needing work. 1 werewolf cometitive and one gate deck fro casual competitive.
I get to go home for the first time in months tomorrow.
Congrats on becoming a moderator! (I meant to say this forever ago but Hikari's thread closed and you didn't have a helpdesk yet)
I'm moderately hungover right now since I was out practicing for the GBBC (Great Burlington Bar Crawl) last night. I hit up as many $1 beer joints as I could before walking home became dangerous.
Definitely agree with Chromatic Lantern. I also don't think you need Tibalt since he is just bad. Think Twice or Forbidden Alchemy would be better and easier to cast than Wild Guess, I think. Also, why no actual Control Magic effects? Or is this just standard cards only?
I don't think most people on this site suck. I think that most people aren't around on this site as much as I am.
I think this site doesn't really have the sort of place to socialize and chat in a relaxed environment. The closest thing there is is Clans, but I'm not interested in the structure and order of Clans - I don't want to be in an exclusive club, forced to participate in contests or other such competition.
I guess that's why I sort of fell into place in Hikari's thread, back before she asked it removed / retired. A place to socialize and chat about whatever without having to care about anything in particular.
I'm hoping this thread will turn into that sort of place. I'd like to find the home that I've been searching for this past year. A place to feel welcomed.
I don't feel particularly attached to where I am staying now... I wouldn't call it "home", just where I'm staying.
I felt the same way when I lived in Kentucky. I never called my apartment home, I always referred to it as "a place with a mattress in the middle of nowhere". Home is where my favourite bar is a 15 minute walk away from the house I grew up in.
Doing race the bar tomorrow and should be fun. Someone had the great idea of mixing a bar hop with a 5k. Oh, and a good number of people cosplay to do it. I wish I was creative and could design costumes.
Sounds like fun. I'm going to be doing the same thing myself on the 25th for my friend's going away party/adventure. I can't wait!
I'd give a more detailed response, but I just woke up a half-hour ago, I'm still groggy, and I'm lazy.
I will say, thanks for your congratulatory wishes, I hope that's what this thread becomes too, and yes, the entire soundtrack of Wild Arms 3 is top-notch.

Lavaball Trap? Sure, that's probably a fit too. But my main idea was to mostly use things that punish anyone not flying and that sort of thing. (Well, of course, that's not all it will be, but it's an idea of how "the floor is lava" would work.
Dead thread is dead. FNM turned out to be draft not sealed and I am doing terribly but I'm probably about to do a massive trade I'll post my pool and the trade when I get home.

Ok, screw my pool, everything was bad.
My first two picks were Melek and Ruric Thar. I though Thar only effected my opponents until I got to deck construction and saw that my Pump and Burn cards were all worthless. I still made the exact same deck I planned on, it just sucked. Best part was when I actually got both out though, I stopped my opponent from playing anything for a turn and then I swung with Thar and he got taken out at the cost of 3 of my opponents creatures, then on my next turn I got to play a Malek Doubled Inaction Injuction and a Malek Doubled Pump spell on Wild Beastmaster ftw.
The attached pictures are what I got in Exchange for 1 of my 3 Thoughtseizes. Keep in mind that even if any of these cards are BAD they're all things I want as opposed to Toughtseize which I would rip in half if it wasn't worth so much.

Seems like you did okay. A very rough count shows about $65 if you count the bulk rares at $1 apiece, a little less otherwise.
I probably would have asked for a little more in the trade, but I don't think you got off too badly. Joke's on him if Thoughtseize is in Modern Masters and falls to $35-40 though.

Using some other guys phone and an app he had on it we got $67 and then we took a Mirko Vosk out because we found out it WASN'T in a precon and his friend already called it, so $65 is pretty damn close.
Now I have the problem of having too many Azorius cards I want to put in my deck.
EDIT: I already had that problem now my problem is I have WAY too many.
Well, seeing as though I do a lot of Pile A vs. Pile B sort of thing, I have a good amount of heuristics and card prices that I can guesstimate with a good deal of accuracy. Plus, since there were a lot of cards there, my guesses are going to converge toward the true price as the number of cards grows (Central Limit Theorem sort of thing - the statistics folks will know what I'm talking about)

On my way to run a 5K for beer, a cause I can support. Tomorrow will be multiplayer casual with friends . . . and likely more beer. I could not ask for a better weekend.
AND . . . my wife brought me home two of my favorites after work; cream soda and chocolate chip cookies! Yeah, I'm a man-child, deal with it.

I wouldn't call them worthless since I'm sure they are almost all cheaper to cast than a six drop and you probably have other creatures besides those 2. The burn just helps you get to your bomb.
I don't think I'd ever trade eternal staples for standard cards but I'm glad you got cards that you wanted.

Woooooo beer! Have you heard the this awesome song about it yet? Warning: Content is hilarious.
Why is Chrono Cross the best game ever and why do I only ever remember that when I can't play it?
My mom got called in to work so I have to take care of my parents' friends' dog today, so I am looking for some older games to play.
I preferably want a 8 or 16 bit JRPG/Console RPG. If it has an awesome soundtrack even better.
I've already beaten FF1, 3(DS version) and 5, Chrono Trigger, almost every Pokemon game... and I think that may be it for JRPGs.

There are quite a few times I end with one extra mana, usually in a color I choose.
I guess Nix is the weak link, but it's so unexpected.
EDIT: Also, Nix can turn the mirror match in my favor. I like Annex, but I don't know if it's the best choice.

Too slow.
That's a pretty cool song. Is the other music from the game as good?

Probably something from the local tea shop (Teavana). They have free samples for people walking through the mall.
Post the list up if you want advice. I'm a Mountain Specialist so you're in the right thread.
