Sorry I didn't make that clear. But seriously, why not just win so you don't have to worry about who you lose to?
i didnt say 'id rather lose than win.' obviously i'd rather win. if you're winning every game ever, i will gladly be your pupil for life. but if i were to lose, i'd rather lose to an unattractive girl. i do have a girlfriend, so its not about meeting someone.

There are certain people that I mind losing to more or less than normal, but it's entirely based on personality and friendship. Looks or gender never play into it. It's like saying you don't mind being robbed as long as it's catwoman and not the penguin. __________________ There's no need to fear, UNDERDOG is here!All your Gruul Nodorogs are belong to me.

Completely agree. Someone beats me, it doesn't overly bother me. However, if an arrogant prick with horrible sportsmanship beats me, it generally bothers me quite a bit.

I'd rather lose to a good looking girl. At least then I can feel like I enjoyed my time a LITTLE bit. If Catwoman was robbing me, I'd at least get a little thrill out of it, even if I would be bummed that I was getting robbed. But the Penguin? Screw that fat punk.

I think I would be set for life if Bill Gates robbed me for everything I got...and I have the evidence to prove it. quote: Originally posted by MasterWolf: I'd rather lose to a good looking girl.

Agree, some of my stuff is kinda heavy, catwoman might need some help...maybe bring in a partner in crime, say Megan Fox?

I could carry it (or her) back to her place... and since I'm clearly dreaming because Catwoman doesn't exist... we could get to know each other...

He is followed by a new generation of "value" traders, aka people who only want to win every single trade. And he said MOTL was a good place to trade on one of his articles on SCG. So whenever people read "good place to trade" from Medina, they automatically translated it to "bunch of newbs that you can take advantage of".

Our local store had issues w/ his distributor being out of stock. Hes not dumb tho, so he went to his other distributors and was able to secure 2 more cases. Hopefully he can keep the product flowing.

Did you have a reference or some such of the appropriate size? I'd think you should use some sort of spray sealant on this thing too so it doesn't fade or get as dirty from normal use. Nice job on it.

HERE is another photo with a Shivan Dragon Magic card on top of it to give you an idea of the relative size.
