Current events
This page is for discussion of stuff related to the game coming up this week, no matter when that actually is. For instance, we can all assume Nate isnt coming for some lame reason and that Ed is sick of pizza and is bringing teriyaki or some other crap. They can post something here if that happens to be untrue.

Attendance and Food Preference
--Gdaze 16:48, 10 August 2008 (MST) So uh Brandon I guess, wanna magic some this Friday? Dieter? Maybe? Know your not the biggest fan o'magic. Also that being said, anyone down for a game sometime this week? Let me know in advance!
--Dieter the Bold 10:47, 11 August 2008 (MST) This weekend is the closest to my dad's birthday, so don't count me in for anything. We may end up celebrating it next weekend, depending on his schedule, so I'm not saying there's no chance, just not much of one.
--Edmiao 12:19, 11 August 2008 (MST) Deiter, you gonna be around tomorrow night (what time you get home?)? i want to steal some more magic boxes for my deck idea. turns out i need more colors than i thought.
--Dieter the Bold 17:12, 11 August 2008 (MST) No plans for tomorrow night. But due to a busier than usual social schedule I'll have to work late tomorrow. So not planning on being home until between 8 and 9pm. You're welcome to swing by after that.
--Edmiao 17:22, 11 August 2008 (MST) ok, i might. don't change your plans or anything. i'll give a call if i'm coming over.
Ranting and raving or other random comments
--Gdaze-- So to those interested. Noelle and I are playing pretty regularly on CoH/CoV. Also now if you buy one, or already have one, you can play either or. Its pretty much a punch fest but so far playing with people has made it quite fun. Its a 15 bucks a month subscribtion fee. We play on the RP, kinda, server; Virture. Also we currently are only playing heroes but likely will make villians in the future. So if you want to play or are going to, let me know!
--Edmiao 16:22, 4 August 2008 (MST)what did one tampon say to the other? Nothing, they were both stuck up cunts.
--Gdaze-- Is that ranting, raving, or random? I vote random!
BEN: in the case of gabe's mom they could, cause they're both stuck in the same flabby cunt
--Edmiao 17:30, 4 August 2008 (MST) now young man, that kind of language is uncalled for.
--Gdaze-- GASP~
JASON: Matt#2 plays CoH, so you should email him. He would like a team I bet. Also, I just saw the sneak preview of Hell Ride and its recommended. A very well put together movie. Not as good as Iron Man or Dark Knight, but next in line. Tons of sex and violence, though somehow not over the top.
--Gdaze 22:49, 4 August 2008 (MST) Vat is his email?
JASON: waltjonse@gmail.com
ED: hey jason, you said your car got good milage, what was the milage and what kind of car? friend looking to trade in her grand cherokee (11mpg for her $5000 per year in gas)
Ed- hey jason, see question above
JASON: My car is a 2005 Hyundai Accent. It cost around $10k new and was EPA at 42 MPG or something like that in the stick without AC. Mine has AC, but still gets around 40 most of the time (or did when I didnt need a tune up and when my tires werent bald). How much is the Cherokee worth?
--Edmiao 16:52, 6 August 2008 (MST) she bought it for $45k in 2005. it gets 11 mpg. now three year later it blue books for $9-11k depending on condition. ouch.
JASON: Ouch is right. Holy crap, she probably owes 3 times that on it too. I would like to have a larger vehicle to keep around for certain emergencies or trips, but damn. Thats some depreciation.
--Edmiao 16:58, 6 August 2008 (MST) it's paid off, she's a cardiologist (Liz, for ben's curiosity) who bought it to pull her horse trailer. i think she can take the hit.
--Gdaze-- Wow, 5,000? Rich or not, thats just plain wasteful! Man... I've never really asked someone with an SUV how much they spend on gas but wow...
--Edmiao 08:29, 7 August 2008 (MST)yup, do the math, if she drives 13,000 miles per year (a lot by my bike commuting standards, but i think not unusual) divided by 11 miles per galon times $4 per gallon = $4727. that funds a lot of terrorist trips to the gabe's mom saloon.
--Gdaze-- Yeah but they could be going there, a lot, on 10 cents a gallon, so that isn't saying much.
--Gdaze-- Dieter, you on for some CoH/CoV tonight?
JASON: Did you ever email Matt#2? He plays almost every night.
Other RPG or Non-RPG gaming Events
shindig on aug 30/31
JASON: Also, I will be having a massive shindig for mine and Rumi's birthdays on either August 30th or 31st. I would like to see as many of you jokers as possible attend. Mark it on your calendar. I am planning on renting a venue so we have plenty of space for games, Rock Band, and partying. Does anyone know of a centrally located, reasonably priced, venue?
GABE: I'd like to come, I'm trying to be more social. A central and big location for partying thats cheap? *insert your mom comment*
KIM: Oooh, I'll be back in town then, might have a job that weekend, but will try to keep it during reasonable hours so that I can show up and commandeer the potato chip bowl... *nom nom nom*
--Dieter the Bold 16:37, 21 July 2008 (MST) Will be moving into a new place, but should be able to spare a day. Consider me attending. The only venue I could think of that's sorta' central and maybe reasonably priced is an educational building. Gym of a high school, community college, Seattle U., etc.
Weekly Magic Whining/Complaining/Smack Talking
--Edmiao 14:04, 10 August 2008 (MST) oh god. The Awful Truth
--Edmiao 14:16, 10 August 2008 (MST) Trying to make a deck using this card
--Gdaze 16:48, 10 August 2008 (MST) Dang, I don't know how I'd counter that goblin...
ED: Magic workstation count of creatures with protection from color. I was looking for protection from blue and thought it was underrepresented, turns out protection from green is the most rare.... # creatures with protection from: 9 green, 12 blue, 24 white, 32 red, 41 black. and two of the protection from green don't really count (masked gorgon and grotesque hybrid)
Next step in Super Heroes
What's the role of super hero? Is it to protect the innocent? Punish the guilty? Keep a captured villain in a closet and occasionally throw him some Sun Chips?
The Guardians are thinking long and hard about this moral conundrum...
