Having the same problem. Logs me off when I try to access Competitive Points excluding Worlds for current point standings. Guess they're having trouble with their own system. __________________ <Jazaray> LIQ! <Jazaray> you broke MOTL <Liq> totally <BoltBait> Don't make me kick you <Slinga> Have no fear, MOTL's janitor is here! <nderdog> So we're all agreed, it's Liq's fault, right? <Leshrac> let me deal with that * Liq has been banned

Ah, same here. Didn't see that new link. It also wouldn't apply to me since I did some drafts there. What I don't get is, why would they exclude worlds? People are able to grind points in the side events and main event, we get this. Isn't that the point of their new system? They force you to attend all the events to grind your points up and if you miss one then its bad times for you?Also, are ratings going to provide for byes for this coming year as well (similar to ppc benifits carrying over and such)? or do I go from having 2 byes working toward 3 byes down to 0 because I live in the middle of no where? Mildly annoying figuring out that utilizing just the planeswalker points that I'll never really be able to get GP byes again unless I win a PTQ or something. Not even sure if playing one protour really means anything points wise. I feel like a few GP side event days could easily out do playing on the protour as far as planeswalker points go.

Other than Dryad Arbor, are there any Future Sight uncommons and commons that are worth anything more than a few cents?

Aven Mindcensor, Dakmor Salvage, Narcomoeba, Street Wraith, Sword of the Meek and Tolaria West are all probably a buck-ish. __________________ NEQUAQUAM VACUUM My girlfriend does good work Give me your Sleight of Minds M:tG set printing and spreadsheet utility

Masques 6 booster sealed on MTGO. I have a merc deck and search rathi fiend with my cateran brute. Opponent loses 3 life. Next turn I swing with both of my mercs and end it.It really doesn't sound like a great story, but I was down 9 life to my 5 when that little search and destroy mission went awesome. I lost that match 2-1 and the next 2-0. But the point is I'm having FUN. __________________ post-post-rock

Just like when he sideboarded game one in some GP that was being broadcast and nobody said a damn thing until afterwords. They even had decklists.

Yes. Because of the following rule she's not a kill spell like Clone but still good. Commander are subject to the Legend rule; they will be put into the graveyard or command zone at the same time as any other Legendary creatures with the same name. __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 11000+ posts 1st in posts in Ontario 13th in posts on MOTL Top 5 in Refs in Ontario (by people who location posted)

I played this guy at Star City Indianapolis. He was a complete douche bag. I beat him first game fast then second game halfway through he demanded that I play faster and called a judge over to watch for slow play. In the end the pressure was to much and I lost both games and the match. His game play is extremely fast which allows him to cheat things into play.

This someone should also hire me when they inevitably get sued for defamation. Woo! >_< Srsly though, our BTA forum already performs the first part of that service, and I think there's probably already blogs (and obviously videos exist) about cheaters. Unless this gets a lot more traffic, it's probably not going to do too much more than what's already out there.

If someone wanted to sue you, you're not anonymous on the internet. Far from it, really. Regardless, that was just a offhand comment for funs, not sure why exactly it got two separate replies. If someone were actually concerned about the possible legal issues of running such a blog, it might deter them from doing so. Most people don't care though (at least until it happens to them), so the only other question is why such a blog hasn't been created yet. And I think the answer is that there are enough sources for such information on already-existing websites that no one thinks the effort in creating a blog to centralize all of this information is worthwhile enough for them to actually do it.

This shows the 4 card Brainstorm happening around 6:56 in the first video. He also apparently drew 3 from a previous Brainstorm but didn't put the two back. __________________ PMs don't work in Chrome or Firefox 4.0+, see HERE for work arounds.

In that first vid, at around 1:50 HE doesn't put any cards back from brainstorm 6:50 he brainstorms and draws 4.What a scumbag.... I would really be tempted to punch this guy in the face if I ever saw him in public.

This is why i finance most of my buying mtg with USD I get from selling mtg. And when the US is low, like now, I ask them to pay me in CND so I don't get hit with a conversion charge.
