My wants consist of three types with associated valuations (if different from TCG median): priority, bulk (as-listed), and value (-15% if standard; -10% if eternal). My haves consist of three types with associated valuations: excess, reserve (+10% if standard; +15% if eternal), and decked (case-by-case). 6. Buying and Selling: I may buy my priority wants, but certainly won't pay more than I can pay elsewhere. I will sell non-decked haves at competitive prices.

And the great thing is, none of it counts unless it's actually agreed to in the trade negotiations. haha Thanks, Jazaray __________________ A Plastered Dragon Original Limerick: There was a nice lassie named Jaz Many wished to have what she has, A delicate face, A soft warm embrace, And a whole lot of bedroom pizzazz.WeedIan: Jazaray is like MOTL's Mom.

What's sad is I have some of his wants. But his rules downright kill any chance of trading with him. I'm not paying for his shipping. He overvalues his stuff. And undercuts ours. Simply put, not worth the time and effort. And by doing the above rules, he'll be hard pressed to catch the leader in refs in which the state he resides. __________________ 30th in refs on Motl! #1 Ref's for Arizona!

Is there another Magic forum that ISN'T full of people who act like they were born with their umbilical cord wrapped around their neck? I left the Reddit one because sweet baby jesus, literally the worst people in all of Magicdom. Gave MTGSal a second chance after that, and thought for a while that it wasn't as bad as it used to be, but now I think that that was just in relation to Reddit. MTGSal is still like a horses stable that hasn't been mucked in years.MOTL is like a nice little oasis of mostly intelligent people. The occasional mouthbreather blows in on the wind, but you can usually hose 'em off.

I'm not trying to butter anyone up. I just want some M:tG discussion that doesn't make me feel like I've been sniffing glue. If anyone uses PucaTrade, I'm looking for Darksteel Arcbound Ravagers. Please love me.

I'm guessing he's talking about the US Women winning the World Cup? In unrelated news, and if anybody finds this interesting, I am now living in a camper on my family's property. Heh. I'm a full-time hermit and spend most of my time with my horses or my few buddies who I play Magic with. Still into the game, back to trade for a bit. I miss all you folks and it sucks that the place has died down like it has. Thing is, there are enough folks just lurking about the place, we could actually have some conversation in here if everyone just made the effort to participate. So, where is the will? Slinga had a good point, for some folks the trade matcher and the price guide were clutch, but for a lot of us who never used those things it's kind of mystifying that lack of access to them is supposedly what's killed the site. It's true there are o admins paying attention, and also that most of the mods are otherwise engaged, but the community it seems to me is by and large still here, just silent. Why is that?

So, anybody out there got tech skills along the lines of building a website from scratch? Feel confident you could do it yourself or with a team, provided the funding, time, server space, etc.? If so and you're interested in taking on a project I think everybody around here will appreciate, shoot me a PM!

Sorry for the double post; hard not to these days! But hey, if I got somebody lined up to build a brand spankin' new Mottle from scratch, what would you say the key features of the website are that would be necessary/important/ideal to transfer over? Obvious examples include:References/Ref-checker Forums Trade Matcher Price Guide Etc. etc. Please post up anything you think is relevant, thanks!

The key features we're missing now are the guide and matcher. Anything else would be gravy.

So I know this guy has screwed people in the past, but if the guy is willing to respond to Feyd's lawyer, let Feyd get his crap before you start piling on the dude. In any case, I'm pretty sure the piling on doesn't help Feyd.__________________ "Message to women worldwide: Girls....we're stupid. We don't like games. We don't know games. We can't read minds.

this guy has never uttered anything truthful to date so while we all hope for an appropriate resolution, we should continue to embrace reality and expect nothing from him in the way of a truthful response or effort to resolve anything. He is simply, like nearly every single other ripper, hoping to buy some time.

Who does it hurt to let Feyd try? He's probably getting banned regardless. __________________ "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

It hurts no one. It also hurts no one to ban the lying piece of trash every time he joins up with another account. He's already done the hurting. Banning him from MOTL once again does nothing to impede Feyd's case against him. It would only again interrupt his dialogue with the members of MOTL, who he has repeatedly stolen from. Ben has already spoken and is in 'wait and see' mode hoping for the best. I have no problem with that but I refuse to give this scumbag any amount of credit for possibly being a decent human. He isn't. He is worthless trash. (my apologies to trash of any worth for the comparison) He belongs in jail.

While I agree with everything you said, it does read as mad.

Just a small apartment. Housing is freaking expensive in Vancouver. Detached house goes for 1+ mil each. __________________ (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻"The enemy has been destroyed, sir. So have the forest, the city, your palace, your dog . . ." —Keldon soldier
