If you were being chased by a boar, through a wild wood, would you rather:

trip and fall, trusting yourself to get back to your feet quickly, and fleeing the boar

or

get your foot stuck inside a metal bucket and be unable to shake it loose

Favorite food?

Ten favorite movies?

When did you get into Magic cards and who/how did you get involved?

Are we (America) going into a depression?

Where do you see the future of America's economy and general state heading and what could be done, in your opinion, to better it?

Only the best,
Jesse

Because Diablo 2 was an awsome game, even with all the greifers, trolls, TKers, etc...and because I had a smiter. And he was awsome.

No, I lost interest in it months ago, took to long and I no longer play video games.

No, I am not a fan of the Jaws movies.

5. What is something that you feel that you are better than most other people at doing?


1. Never give a damn what other people think, being a sheeple suck. If you give a damn about what people think about you, you're just not going to be happy trying to please them.

2. I failed two classes at the University of Minnesota because I Was unhappy (see #1.) However, since then I've gone and gotten an AA degree, almost have a B.S. degree and I'm two years away from my Masters in Business Managment. I no longer consider failure to be depressing, but rather a motivator to kick my ass along to do even better work.

3. Buy a C3 Stingray Corvette, black, and put a sunroof in it. I don't like convertibles. Among other things I'd modify on it. I'd also buy my best friend a set of Goyfs.

4. Duno, really, other then some site fixes for Chrome, MOTL is pretty good.

5. To sound like an egomaniac, and a narccisisit, but I'm better at alot of things then most people are. Except for Biology/Chemistry/Math. Numbers, microscopes and such aren't my cup of tea. Psychology, Sociology, Martial Arts, construction, English, Debate, Chess, etc... I consider my self to be very good at, and I know my friends and family can agree on that without bias.

quote:
if felt some negativity go your way...do you feel youve done anything wrong??

Unfortunetly, I respond to negativity with psychological cruelty - both online and in real life.

Climb a damn tree, or stick my foot in a bucket and have a weapon.

1. Steamed snow-crab legs.

2. Hard question since choosing ten movies I think the best is very, hard.
But:
V for Vendetta
Serenity
LOTR: Two Towers
LOTR: Return of the King
LOTR: Fellowship of the Ring
Equilibrium
The Dark Knight
Gladiator
The Fifth Element
District 9
I most likely forgot a few of my other favorites that are above the last 5..but theres just so many of them >_<

3. I got into magic in 1993, I was four. My cousins are super geeks and let me open a pack of Beta they had lying around. I loved the artwork as a young child, I went to my first tournoment in the Black Summer and almost won; and stopped going to tournoments after that (even as a young child, I could tell that most tournoment goers were people I didn't want to be near, ever.)

4. We've been in a media-perpetrated recesion for a LONG TIME, but the country is slowely coming out of it.

5. Spend money citizens, stop hording it. We need to spend money to generate economic flow. We also need to elect an old stogy Jew as president.

3. Where are you from?
4. About how old are you?
5. Any kids or spouse?

1. EDH gives me a creative outlet, a sadistic outlet, and just an outlet for my imagination.

2. I troll for science, to me, Psychology/Sociology is the way of life, and seeing how people react is just funny and interesting.

3. Minnesota, best state ever.

4. 22

5. No kids, no wife, no girlfriend, several partners in bed.

quote:
1. What makes EDH interesting to you?
2. What makes an EDH deck interesting?

3. How did it feel to be a part of Commandercast in the first season?

4. Which are you better at: deck building, deck tuning or playing?


1. See above #1.

2. If it doesn't combo out and "win" on turn 0-8.

3. Kinda sucked, I wanted to see how it would feel to give some of my own advice and deck building methodology to others using a easy-spread media (hearing.) but in the end, Ghooost (commandercast orginizer) and the rest of his team are better small-talk speakers then I am. Also, I got Mono durring Season One (fall semester) and was unable to much of anything.

4. Depends on the color, the theme, the strategy. But overall, I'm good at building the first draft of a deck, better at tinkering and tunning, and even better just playing it. My mind is pretty much "perfect" for playing Magic. Since Im a geek.

All hail the Geek.

quote:
1) Favorite Magic card?
2) Favorite Magic color?
3) Favorite Magic deck?
4) Favorite Magic format? Though I'm sure we already know.
5) If you could make or unmake any one change to Magic what would it be and why?

1. Hmmm, tough question, but Demigod of Revenge, Dusk Urchins, Diabolic Edict and Force of Will are all up there for consideration.

2. Black, and Blue.

3. My Modified Black Control/Suicide/Aggro/Greifer deck.

4. EDH; how'd you guess?

5. Go back to the old card borders, and remove all the idiots from Magic, forcefully. And the *******s as well. Also, anyone that says "I dont play for fun," needs to be just removed period.

quote:
- 1. If you could have any three people, alive or dead, to a dinner party, who would it be?
- 2. PC or console games?

- 3. What 1 song can you listen to, over and over again, without getting tired of it?


1. Einstine, my grandfather, The Maharal of Prague.

2. PC, I suck at thumbsticks, but I'm epic and accused of hacking with a mouse and keyboard.

3. None, I get bored very quickly of a song if I listen to it more then a few times.

quote:
1. Who's your favorite player from the 1979 Oakland A's?
2. What is 9.8 meters per second squared?
3. Could you answer in the form of a question?
4. How much longer must our people endure this injustice?
5. What is your favorite NES game?

1. N/A I dont watch sports.

2. The acceleration of gravity on earth, without interference from friction.

3. What type of question to you want me to answer with?

4. If your talking about racial injustice, forever, because humanity is a pile of violent douchhebags.

5. Didn't play NES.

quote:
Would you take requests on members to specifically troll? Bribes maybe?

No, I troll when, where and who I want to. Which may or may not include the places, people and times you want me to troll too.

1 Has anyone ever pointed out that much like Bruce Wayne and Batman, we have never seen you and wakeupwithastory in the same place at the same time?

2 Is there anything worse than playing against the Political Puppets commander deck and having your opponent take your general and general-kill you with it?

3 If you had the opportunity to have lunch with any other MOTL member (and have them pick up the check) would you think of choosing anyone other than Stu55? If so who?

4 Any truth to the rumor that you are having an E-fair with one of the mods?

5 If you could bring any one thing from Salvation to this website what would it be?

6 Are you truly as attention-starved IRL as your online persona?

7 Finally, do you think there is ever a time when it makes sense to be angry at something said to you on the internest?

1. Now that you mention it...I think he is stalking me...

2. My generals are Rayne, Kiku and Azusa...they have 1 power each. I'm not particularly worried about it.

3. Jaz. Shes the only mod I know is a woman.

4. Gunslinga is my bottom.

5. I'd bring an unloaded gun, load it up here, and bring it back to salvation.

6. No, like I said before, the internet is one big experiment in psychology and sociology to me.

7. On two occasions.

So, I take it, the number of questions decreases as the novelty of this type of thread wears off, and more people are questioned, the number of fun questions becomes boring thus leading to a decline in the question-sign-up# ratio, eventually leading to the downfall of this type of thread unless more questions are asked!!!!!
