They are going to be slow-scry lands. As in, "scry 1 at the beginning of the next upkeep". The temples were too powerful.

Rosewater said "a new cycle of land". Maybe he is lying when he said that. Maybe I'm reading it wrong. Maybe i really don't give a ****. Maybe I'll go and reread it.

Two judges pulled me aside during a sealed side at GPSD because somebody who lost game 1 called his opponent's deck "constructed quality". People really get that salty over sealed?(His deck wasn't that great - the judges even told him he should have been playing a different color given his pool)

So they pulled you aside to be like "Hey man! Get this..." or were they asking you how to handle a baby? __________________ "Message to women worldwide: Girls....we're stupid. We don't like games. We don't know games. We can't read minds. Say it like you mean or STFU." -rockondonSale Thread

They checked my deck first because they thought I might have been the person the guy complained about. My opponents for round 2 were still in game 2 and the other half of the bracket (where the complaint came from) had just started the second round. I was the only person doing nothing at the time.

Should have asked him if he had a standard deck that he thought would be a fair match for your sealed pool. Not sure if that's nice tho.

Sigh. Nothing surprises me about judges at these events anymore.

The judges did everything correctly except finding out the loser's name before investigating the complaint so they could actually deck check the correct person.

I thought about getting back into judging, but I don't think I'd last long.__________________ "Message to women worldwide: Girls....we're stupid. We don't like games. We don't know games. We can't read minds. Say it like you mean or STFU." -rockondonSale Thread

Hi!, I'm currently in need to start arranging my trips to the USA with with more anticipation than usual and I normally need to go after each set's release.However, I have the problem that future sets still haven't their dates confirmed. I would like to know if it's safe to assume that every release occurs 2 weeks before each set protour. So if it would be safe to assume that for example "sweat" will be released on January the 22nd. thanks and sorry if this seems obvious to some, but I would like to check first.

Sorry to hear that. That's a bummer. ): On another note, is there any way we can stop a certain somebody from posting on every thread with Legacy lands and offering horrible prices? :\

Nothing short of that person getting banned can stop that. Out of curiosity, are you referring to someone posting on your h/w list? __________________ 30th in refs on Motl! #1 Ref's for Arizona!

No, just frequenting the Sales subforum. Fortunately for me, I don't have enough good things to lowball.

on older cards the range is so wide and conditions matter so much that what 1 person considers low ball is just what they can get the card for on ebay or at grand prix/scg opens. when i was putting together my unlimited playset of duals i was offering prices like this for mp copies u sea/volc 210-210 tundra/trop 140-160 bayou 120 badlands/plateau/taiga 55 scrubland/savannah 65 some people would respond saying that's low ball. i was picking them up at those prices on ebay and from dealers at bigger tournaments and completed the entire set that way. with patience there are deals to be had. ive consistently seen NM beta time vaults go UNDER SCG buy list (in fact i just bought a bgs grade 8.5 one for about $750) but if someone offered you under buy list you'd be like wtf right? so i'd try not to get too worked up on 'low ball offers' :-p

^^those are Unlimited duals though, so there's definitely going to be some variability there. Offering $40 for Wastelands, though, is low-balling.

wasteland is tough. there are a lot of cards right now that are kind of low and you often don't see as much variance in their prices. wasteland is one of those cards. that's why it's a good card to pick up right now and a bad card to get rid of. i often see people selling cards at buy list + 10%. well buy list for a nm wasteland is $30 so i wouldn't get mad at someone if they offered me $40 for a wasteland, i just wouldn't accept it. in fact i have 8 wasteland currently and four of those are in my trade binder. someone tried to trade me for them locally this week but i said i'd probably rather hold on to them b/c the current price for them is so low.

ya wastelands are just so cheap right now compared to their spike. force of will are in an awkward spot too but aren't as cheap as wastelands. how much did you try and sell your jap wastelands that nobody bid on?

Less than what other wastelands have sold for, which was puzzling to me. $70 I think? They seem to go for a lot more than that if your name is kidicarus.

So like I'm looking for a Rob Alexander ultra pro playmat. Can someone please direct me to where to find a list of the ones he has done? If I choose to purchase one, I'm offering a finders fee. __________________ 30th in refs on Motl! #1 Ref's for Arizona! I offer 3rd party trading services. Email if interested.

Anyone notice the ink coming off of their mm2015 cards? I noticed one of my cards looks like the text is starting to fade away. Not sure if this is a unique issue or if it's happening en masse
