Hey...I'm old and creepy and I don't use them.

Is there really a reason to understand why I cannot choose between Mtgo or irl magic? Mtgo = cheaper, can find a game anytime but no actual person interaction Or irl magic with irl interaction of ppl, some group gatherings that boggles the mind but more expensive to keep up. I'm weighing the pro's and con's. Mtgo has people that omg! I can't beleive that are that upset becuz I conceded the match?

You're not old and/or creepy enough.

You gotta be that really weird guy who always mutters and smells so bad that he even repels magic players. Or the guy who collects angels and is extremely vocal that he is "The" angel collector. Having a temper tantrum when you lose in a FNM draft is par for the course. Not just whining about mana screw. Stuff like flipping the table and then running off without picking up your cards.

I like that I can draft at 4 AM on MTGO. I'd rather play constructed IRL though; can't wrap my head around maintaining a digital collection yet. Maybe if i didn't have a playgroup available it would make more sense.

I'm not horny and/or desperate enough that I need to look at porn stars while I play magic. If I'm horny, ill go fool around with my girlfriend.

If the only thing you ever tap is a swamp though, I guess you gotta do what you gotta do.

You are an ass.

So, I took the cube advice I was given ages ago on here, and my cube is a cluster****.

Here's where I'm at right now:
3 rare cycles
Invasion Masters
Apocalypse 'volvers
Odyssey lands

21 Uncommon cycles
Apocalypse sanctuaries
Planeshift, SOA battlemages
RTR, GTC, SOA, and Planeshift charms
TSP totems
TSP storage lands
RTR, GTC keyrunes
Mirage fetches
SOA, M12 mages
Eventide hedge-mages
RTR,GTC, RGD guildmages
Masques mongers
Future Sight rebound spells

17 common cycles
MIR guildmages
NEM seals
RTR, GTC, RGD guildgates and karoo lands
SOA panoramas
RGD signets
SOA obelisks
MIR, VIS, ONS, PLC charms
Apocalypse disciples
Planeshift familiars
Invasion apprentices

Also, every creature with morph (116), and every spellshaper (56).

In addition, there are a few cards that don't actually have a cycle to be with, but are in, like:
Seal of Primordium
Ana Battlemage
Leonin Battlemage

And a card or two I'm not sure about
Ixidor, Reality Sculptor (seems like a total bomb for once)
Whirlpool Warrior

That brings me to 372 cards, but I'm not done.

As you can see, it's no longer a non-rare cube, but I really only want rares that stick to my themes. Some of these are entirely unplayable though (Divining Witch), and I fear some of them might be too good.

I want cards like Howling Mine in there, so spellshaping isn't such a burden. Should I also employ multiple ways to retrieve cards that get discarded? I don't want to force people into green or blue for that reason, though. I really want these minor themes to be as cyclical as possible. And I don't want people drawing out.

I do not want mass removal effects (I can live with Mageta being in there because he fits the theme), but I think targeted removal is necessary. How much is too much?

Should I add some changeling stuff in there? I know you guys can't really answer a lot of these for me, but I could really use a little direction.

Wow, really? Talk about weak.

I'd say you can't dish it nearly as well as you take it, but you're pretty bad at that too.

Are you actually fifteen though? I remember when I was terrible at comebacks too.

There's less turnover of men, even if they get paid very poorly. And their stage names do usually show up. Usually in that part everybody fast-forwards through.
I can't recall seeing much of Peter North, but I did read up on his 'interesting' abilities.

Quite possibly more than marlo, lol. I have a feeling that the subject should be changed. I can see Slinga ready to press the stop button on this train of thought, lol. I do think you need to lighten up about the whole marlo whizzing contest thing. The guy is just a goof, and that's about it. Nothing personal as far as I can see.

This is getting increasingly less interesting seeing as how you don't get references and don't understand double endendres

Good thing I don't get drunk and post on here nearly as much as I used to or I'm sure I would have been banned for losing my mind reading and responding to some of the childish garbage that goes on here.

I know the internet is the place where everyone is tough and witty but I'm wondering when its gonna lose that luster.

Won't happen until internet anonymity goes away. Trolling is a product of a lack of personal responsibility (haha wow that makes me sound old), and having no social investment to a screen name means little consequence to IRL reputations.

Some of his drunken posts were the greatest, but yes, the last I heard he is doing much better.
