I'm sorry, I really thought that I would have time to devote to this game but I really don't right now, and I won't for the next week or so. I don't know if I'll have internet access at all, so at best it's V/LA for the next week.
If the mod wants to replace me, I'd be OK with that as well since I really don't have the time right now.
none here, one on mafiascum - Any games you are currently in
none - Any games you have recently been random'd out of.
I've only ever replaced out of a game once, and that was voluntary to be replaced by the guy who I replaced in for - Any games you have been replaced in the past year, and if those replacements have been voluntary or not.
never - Any games you have been modkilled in on MTGS.
lots - Any major game experience you have (Specialties, FTQs, PCQs, etc)
I haven't played as much mafia recently as I used to, and I've been looking for something wacky to play -Any other information you feel pertinent to your application to the game.
EDIT: Actually, I just remembered that I have replaced out of two other games. I went through about a week of being homeless and having some issues with things which would affect my memory >.< But that was a few months ago and I have a home, internet, and a therapist now >>.<<
I still haven't seen the Avengers... at this point I'll probably just wait for it to hit the dollar theaters. It sucks because I love Joss Whedon so much but I literally haven't had the $8 to spare for a movie :|
I do start training at a job tomorrow though, so hopefully I'll actually have some spending money soon
I own the originals, and they're fun. I'll likely gather these up as well and figure out how I like them.
The black deck in the original set was OP for sure. My son kills us all whenever we break them out to play (that's his deck) unless we gang up on him and kill him.
I have been kicking around in the back of my head whether the new Cascade 2/2 in UG makes Hypergenesis legacy viable...? I'm by no means a legacy player, but I would think a pitchabletoForceofWill permanent might make the cut?
I don't know if the new cascade bear will make Hypergenesis legacy viable (although I hope not because I f'n hate that deck), but I am very happy that I can build UB ninjas in EDH.
I doubt that they would do wedges in a Return to Ravnica. Rav is the iconic guilds set, we still call the color pairs by their Rav guilds to this day. Just like New Mirrodin had to have an artifact theme, I think that RtR will have a 2-color pairs theme. Wedges will probably be two blocks after RtR, "Huey" block. Or possibly even the block after that.
Nice! I scrubbed out of the midnight PR with a BR deck whose only notable cards were Griselbrand, Malignus, and Thunderous Wrath, but I also won yesterday's event with a WU Skies deck, though mine was probably better than yours.
I opened a Nephalia Smuggler but didn't run it because I underestimated how good it was. I almost lost to it against the UR Humans deck (he kept blinking the one that deals damage equal to the number of humans when it EtB), but I had back to back Goldnight Redeemers to stabilize and fly in for the win. I probably should have taken out Zealous Strike for the Smuggler, as I never once cast the Strike and ended up pitching it to Amass the Components every chance I got. I did go 4-0, so I guess the deck was good enough, but two of those matches were of the game three I'm at 2 life and have exactly enough flying to kill them first sort of matches.
On a side note, Herald of War with a Bladed Bracers is hilariously amazing. Righteous Blow is also amazing, especially against all the 2 or less toughness humans running around.
I decided to run Angelic Armaments because I do have a few non-flyers, and at worst its still +2/+2 to one of my flyers. Geist Snatch proved to be amazing. It literally won me half of the games I played.
So I went to the prerelease today. It was the first time I've played Magic in months and I went 4-0 with WU flyers, so I'm pretty happy about that. I played against RG Humans, GW Humans, UR Humans, and another RG Humans, lol.
If the mod wants to replace me, I'd be OK with that as well since I really don't have the time right now.

Kill it with fire.
Sorry I haven't posted yet, I've been busy with work and moving and life in general.
I'll be able to read and post by tomorrow night at the latest.

And so many new smilies! When did that happen? fits us nicely.
I'm not in any games right now, and I've played in several complex games here and on mafiascum.
However, Garfield isn't on the Design or Development teams for RtR, so maybe they are doing something weird with it?
