Post FNM Jitters and a Question :)

I ended up not even going to FNM that friday, but I did chill with friends that saturday.

I tested both decks, and came up with the idea of playing my Mannequin deck still at FNM. I also think I'm going to put two Bitterblossoms in the deck as well.
My Goblin Pact deck is good, but not consistant. I need to get the forth Grave Pact, and I honestly don't think it will be that good until standard rotates. Then I can turn it into a mono blakc control with creatures like Hypnotic...

Card difficulties

Posted 06-30-2008 at 09:36 PM by MeatballWarrior
*sigh*

Cards are tricky. I've been trying to come up with cards for contests and duels and sets and its not going anywhere. My last 10 cards in the FCC got about 3 votes, I have lost 4 duels in a row, 3 of which I thought I would win, 2 I KNEW would have won. I need to make a brand spankin' new blue mechanic and a name, but I got the ol' creator's block. HELP!!!

okay... I'm good. It's just... I've got so many cool ideas right now for set/block themes but starting a ton of different sets at once would be foolish as I know none of them would actually be completed. The worst part is that none of them can possibly fit with the current block I'm working on. I'm thinking about maybe...

I Feel. Therefore, I Am.

Posted 06-27-2008 at 11:56 PM by Redington
Updated 06-29-2008 at 12:34 AM by Redington
I feel like my mind is in shambles sometimes. Like my capacity to think in dept about anything is an almost-frequent occurrance. Is it because of the sheer lethargy that I have embraced for the past two years? Perhaps. Is it because I've become socially/intellectually disconnected from school or institutions of learning in general ever since I dropped out of college 2 years ago? Perhaps.


I feel and that's all I can do. I think about my current condition, my perdictament, and

Setting in roots

Posted 06-27-2008 at 01:46 PM by MortalShell
I have been a long time lurker here at MTGS. I have also been making cards with the set editor for awhile now.

I would like to let you all know that i a rather excentric (sp?) person. I dabble in all sorts of religion based studies and philosophy. I love playing MTG and designing the cards for it. I also play D&D.

My goal while I am here it to get enough feedback to release a block with a base set of 350 and two sets of 150. I have a great feeling that this is the...

FNM Jitters

Updated 06-27-2008 at 01:42 PM by Johnation
I'm not nervous about going, its just the deck I want to play is the problem.

I have two decks. Both are good, in my opinion. I've been testing heavely on MWS (which, ironically, isn't the best place to play. I played a Legacy game the other day with the Ankh of Mishra/Parallax Tide combo, and the other guy said it didn't work. Then called me the noob. lol. I screencap all of the stupid things people say on that program...)

Here are the decks. I have my U/B Mannequin...

Today was not a good day...

Posted 06-26-2008 at 11:11 PM by Howler13
Well, poo.

We (as in me and my coworkers) found out today the store is closing. I can't say we were completely shocked, we'd kind of seen it coming for a bit. But that doesn't make it any less depressing. I've been working there over a year, it's probably the only job I've had I can genuinely say I enjoyed. I have alot of trouble getting jobs (guess why), so I'm not really looking forward to that either. I've already filled out online applications for the local Blockbuster and Hollywood...

Sleep Deprivation and Other Stuff

Posted 06-25-2008 at 12:18 PM by Redington
It's been awhile since I've done a blog post but I think it's at least note-worhty enough to post about.


I've seemingly having a problem getting to sleep, but only rarely I will wake up a lot of times during the night when I do get to sleep. It's not that I'm not getting enough sleep per say... It's rather that I keep staying up later and later into the night that I end up sleeping til like 12 or 1 o'clock in the afternoon.

Yes, guessed it right: I'm unemployed at

No, this is not a rant. Why? I have no idea.

Posted 06-24-2008 at 09:28 PM by CrovaxtheCursed
Damn, I'm spending way too much time here on my blog. If I spent even half as much energy on the main boards as I did on this blog, I swear that I would be as well known as TFE or something. OK, maybe not that well known, but at least a lot better known than I am now. Hell, I bet that most people on this site don't even know anything about me save for the really short intro to this here blog. And now that's gotten me thinking about what the hell I'm doing with my life. In 24 of the last 25 posts...

Wonder how you think you are think you're gonna lose, then destroy everything?

Posted 06-24-2008 at 04:24 PM by MeatballWarrior
Well, its time for another blog. I was awsome at my last type 2 tournament. I took first. . . out of 1. Yeah I was the only one who showed up, so Im gonna count it as a win.

I went to a draft on Sunday and got destroyed. I went white black. Unfortunately, the guy to my left went white and the guy to my right went black, so I got nothing. It is kinda weird. The last draft I went to, I drafted 3 colors and I took 3rd. The mana was all screwy and the costs were ridiculous. A...

Major Archtypes I've Been Apart of - Part 2

Just after the Invasion spoiler was released, Star City Games had a contest. They wanted submitted articles talking about cards, decks, or limited format about Invasion.

My article finished 2nd and I won a Foiled Balduvian Horde from 1999 World Championship in Japan.

When I am able to find the link to that article I will add it to this post.

The article talked about the return of 5 color Green to Standard. During my early tournament days, 5 Color Green was...

My Life as...Not much of anything

Posted 06-21-2008 at 05:26 PM by Avatar of Kokusho
Yeah, some of this might be a bit downing myself, and some might be bragging. It's my blog, though, and I feel like writing about it. If other people want to read it, your choice.

Believe it or not, I have pretty low self-esteem. Why? you ask? People suck, that's why. Some people can't feel good about themselves unless they're dragging someone else with them, and that's something I've had to deal with most of my life. So, when someone tells you that you're a stupid, worthless bitch...
