JASON: Why is mana leak in there?  Do you expect to be low on blue?  Also, why not try red as your color, then you can use Brand.  For one red you gain control of all permanents you own.  Cha-ching!
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 00:17, 7 July 2008 (MST) Good magic today! My green/blue deck held its own but most of the matchs went to the Ferry deck!  Oh also I'm not suppose to tell Matt I have that 7 mana scarecorw that can move -1/-1 tokens off of it for free.
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 12:19, 2 July 2008 (MST)you don't have to buy the cards to test the deck, we can print them a la mystic snake.
+
 
+
GABE: Haha, you know my combo deck was going to use green with the Sky Swallower as well.  Those bombshells are awesome though, you may just be able to pull that off, you need some?  I have 2 I can lend ya I think.
+
 
+
I'm actually trying out this other deck, but I'm not sure it will work out so well.
+
 
+
SO.  Anybody wanna play tomorrow?  Or Saturday?  How 'bout Sunday?
+
 
+
BEN: saturday I will be moving lots and lots of stuff onto my deck...anyone who would like to help will be greatly appreciated and fed as well.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 16:52, 2 July 2008 (MST) I would love to play tomorrow (I've been tuning both my Giants and Faeries decks a bit), but I'd probably get killed in my sleep by Kate, since I've been really gorram busy lately.  I could maybe play Saturday (help Ben, get, fed, play Magic?), but I'm doing a show at 4ish.  Sunday is perhaps a better possibility.  I'll let you know.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 11:47, 6 July 2008 (MST) My addyis on my page, number is 425*208*9143.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 20:05, 2 July 2008 (MST) Well, since I'll be sleeping in Saturday, and you have a show at four I don't think Saturday is gonna work, plus Ben has heavy lifting....  (which by the way I may stop by, depends if my brother is back or not.)  So maybe Sunday, and MAYBE?!? tomorrow?  Anyone else able to play tomorrow?
+
 
+
I'm making two decks, I just finished the first one which is... creaturish.  The next one is gonna be a wacky mill/control deck.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 22:18, 2 July 2008 (MST) Ok, so it looks like tomorrow is a no go, but I can play on Sunday, in between 12 and 6.  Let's do it!
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 00:08, 3 July 2008 (MST) Weird.  The Magic Workstation version of [http://ww2.wizards.com/gatherer/CardDetails.aspx?name=inkfathom%20witch inkfathom witch] reads "2UB: Target unblocked creature becomes 4/1 until end of turn" rather than "EACH unblocked creature becomes 4/1 until end of turn."  For those who are paying attention, that's a big difference, like the difference between me winning and losing the last game I played on-line. Oh well, I'm supposed to be writing a paper anyway.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 09:33, 3 July 2008 (MST)i think oracle is the correct version of things, ie, probably magic workstation is wrong rather than the card has been misprinted.  tell the workstation guys to fix it.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] '''SO.  Besides Brandon and I, is anybody else down for some magic on Sunday?'''
+
 
+
http://www.trollandtoad.com/p158099.html
+
This is pretty nasty with the new sets.
+
 
+
BEN: umm....it's considered the best creature ever made in magic.  ever.  There are entire tournament decks that win regularly based around that creature alone.  And the average price online is 47 bucks.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 18:47, 3 July 2008 (MST) Yeah, I'm positive that the card is right as printed, and I think I already saw the complaint posted on a workstation message board, but they haven't fixed it yet.  And, RE: tarmagoyf, what Ben said.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 21:07, 3 July 2008 (MST) Seems like the card use to be cheaper but now thanks to tribal haha.  I dunno, fourity bucks for a creature card?  Just paralyze it or kill it, there is so much creature removal.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 23:34, 3 July 2008 (MST) Yeah, tarmagoyf isn't terribly special in terms of abilities, etc., but it is an amazingly good utility creature.  In most games it'll be at LEAST 3/4 pretty quickly, and usually can get to a pretty gross 5/6 or 6/7.  And remember that it's a two-drop, so it's not all that bad to lose it to a removal spell.  And removal spells don't always work as well as you might think.  For example, even with no cards in the graveyard to begin with, it automatically survives a [http://ww2.wizards.com/gatherer/CardDetails.aspx?name=tarfire Tarfire].  Which, as you say, is why adding tribal stuff (and planeswalkers) makes it better than ever.
+
 
+
Oh, and if it ends up being just you (Gabe) and I on Sunday, I'd be happy to have you over to my spot.  I'm not sure I'll have a car that day, but I might be able to arrange it.
+
 
+
Ben, I would like to be able to offer some help Saturday, but I'm not sure yet if I'll be able to pull it off.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 18:06, 5 July 2008 (MST) Wonder if anyone is gonna check this, so Just Brandon and me for magic tomorrow?  You still on for it dude?  Anyway yeah, leaving here is hard I haveth no car.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 23:43, 5 July 2008 (MST) Yeah, I'm still in.  I'll arrange to drop Kate off so that I can have the car.  What do you say to 12:30 or 1ish?  Anyone else is welcome to join and I can likely offer a ride.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 02:14, 6 July 2008 (MST) 1 would be grand.  Gives me time to clean up a bit.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 11:02, 6 July 2008 (MST) Ok, perfect.  Ummmm, but I'll probably need directions to your house again.  Post 'em here, or, better yet, post them and your phone number so I can call if I'm lost.  Oh yeah, you can also call me at 206.250.6329.

Revision as of 01:17, 7 July 2008

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

--Brandon 23:37, 3 July 2008 (MST) Hey, it looks like there is a very good chance that I will be able to game on the 18th. Indeed, if no one else had thoughts, I might be able to run a one-shot (possibly Shadowrun). Or, Dieter could run his game . . .

BEN: Brandon is good to run shadowrun, Dieter has offered to run a one shot fading suns, and Jason has offered to run a playtest of dragonquest. I'm happy to do any of those things...I'm just glad we're actually getting together on the 18th.

--Dieter the Bold 13:51, 6 July 2008 (MST) I'd prefer to run in someone else's game. I could run a one-shot if everything else fell through, but I'd prefer someone else do it.

Ranting and raving or other random comments

--Edmiao 22:39, 2 July 2008 (MST) brandon, what was that wine that we had at the last magic session at your place, do you recall? it was a red, cheryl liked it and she never likes red wines, so i thought i might go looking for it.

--Brandon 22:57, 2 July 2008 (MST) Hmmm. I'm pretty sure that it was a Fidelitas blend, but I'm not sure what year, etc.

BEN: my paper got accepted to the Journal of Biological Chemistry!

JASON: Rawk duh house, yo.

GABE: Sweeeeet, congratz!

--Edmiao 11:34, 3 July 2008 (MST) Lo the mighty stride amongst trembling giants.

--Brandon 18:47, 3 July 2008 (MST) That's awesome, Ben! I mean, uh, lo the stupid hobbits, er, kithkin slide amidst your giant brain-muscles. Or something.

--Gdaze 00:17, 7 July 2008 (MST) Good magic today! My green/blue deck held its own but most of the matchs went to the Ferry deck! Oh also I'm not suppose to tell Matt I have that 7 mana scarecorw that can move -1/-1 tokens off of it for free.

The Next Step in Werewolf

Werewolf Recap


Next step in Super Heroes

--Edmiao 08:50, 1 July 2008 (MST)so what did i miss?

BEN: we battled the juice for a bank and the juice's reputation, then we battled silver skinned dudes for hostages at the museum of natural history, then we battled a giant demon for hot girls about to be sacrificed to an artifact, then we battled Cortez, who possessed Brim and sent ancient Aztec spirits to kick our asses and flew off in a giant steampunk ship in Brim's body. You know, the usual.

GABE: We were a little busy that day.

--Brandon 16:52, 2 July 2008 (MST) Don't forget that we became acquainted with a mysterious individual who seems to be able to (1) call you wherever you are and (2) possess an entire platoon of Roombas. Be afraid, be very afraid.

--Dieter the Bold 18:27, 2 July 2008 (MST) Especially considering who makes the Roomba

--Gdaze 20:02, 2 July 2008 (MST) Gawd help us!
