Borat was indeed released here. And why would we not like it here? We're the ones who made it!
21 is the drinking age, but I dislike alchohal.
Ninja edit: This is the latest card for the set my friends and are are making. The picute is going to be a barbarian standing in the shadow of a giant's foot.
anyway, we had a pretty solid show tonight. i'll get a podcast up in the morning. i should also be playing in a PC release event on MTGO at some point.
for those who have been following the recent updates to my blog, i'm going to the doctor later today, and, hopefully, i'll have more of an idea of what's going on. for those who haven't been following, it's probably nothing serious, but you'll know as i know.
i refuse to see the borat movie on ethical grounds. i strongly disapprove of his style of movie-making, as it was inherently dishonest, and took advantage of a bunch of foolish/gullible/naive people. having had my own naivete regarding the media crushed at a relatively young age, i can understand how people fell for his crap, and didn't realize they were about to make grand fools of themselves for a few hundred bucks.

I didn't like the movie Borat either... It had the kind of humor that I don't think is humorous... I just want to QFT what god of cyanide said:

Me too. Although I'm not completely sure how it works.
Also, cooljeanius is 17 today if I'm not mistaken. Happy birthday!
sene... it's in premier events. it's like prerelease sealed - you'll need one TS tournament pack, 3 PC boosters, and some number of tickets. i think they have different prize levels for different amounts of entry tix. not sure what happens when you T8, as i normally suck it up at these things, but plan on being at your computer for a few hours if you do well.
and, if it is cooljeanius' birthday today... happy birthday, bro, and many more!

Wow... didn't have time to go online for three days, and less than a page here. At least it makes it easy.
Not much happened in the past few days, except that my sickness got worse. Now, I don't think I have a fever any more, but my sore throat has gotten much, much worse-- like, worse than any I've ever gotten. I'm barely eating at all either, because swallowing is like sending a knife down my throat.
And I was at school today, playing field hockey with a mouthguard in. BAH.
I also got my new, really fast 2GB flash drive (it was a hard choice between this and a Corsair, but this got better Newegg ratings), and I am loading it with portable apps for Mac, Windows, and maybe Linux if I can find the time. The idea is, I can carry around my stuff where ever I go. I'm a little disappointed with the flash drive speed though, while it is faster than my old, junky drive, it is not the incredible increase I expected after reading the reviews. And the cap is soooo easy to lose, it'll be gone within a few days.
@This Clan: Dude... One reply in over a day... Not cool.We were almost Page 2'ers. People need to get more active, and don't think I don't spot you on MSN FL ¬.¬
Meh, let's just post whenever we feel like it. Trying to post all the time will decrease clan morale.
played "the spoils" for the first time. the cards are really funny, but i foresee this game being somewhat limited, unless they can reproduce the jokes in languages other than english... it's a fun game, and VERY similar to magic - just different enough to avoid the WotC lawsuithammer, i think
I heard about that. It sounds OK, but just another rip-off of Magic that'll drop soon, and I don't have extra money to spend on it.
pokemon emerald? awesome. i can't wait for diamond and pearl to be released. i am up to the extra quests in mystery dungeon red right now; hopefully, i'll beat a few more of them before D&P come out and eat up all my poke-time...
I'm not getting them. It seems pointless to me to get one of the first two games in any given Poke-trilogy, because you know a third one will come out that is like the two combined, with extra features. Just wait for the third one.
Ninja edit: This is the latest card for the set my friends and are are making. The picute is going to be a barbarian standing in the shadow of a giant's foot.
Looks pretty good, maybe a little overpowered in Limited, but I don't know-- I haven't played in a while.

i'm a poke-junkie. must... get... them... all...
Technically it's 21, but many people start drinking much, much earlier.
i started when i was 14
Goodnight everybody, I hope I can sleep.
same goes for me. i just wrapped up an MTGO release event, didn't do so well (2-3) but whatever, i had a lot of fun, though i had a few color-screw losses.

I have a few comments to make to-wards some concerns that were posted earlier, and I apologize for not finding them before now.
It appears that everyone took my comment in a way that I completely didn't expect. No, I am not going to be penalizing anyone for how they vote, as was made obvious because the Greeks tied for first place in the contest.
Now, as for me being bias, I am not. However, I, as all of you do, have a right to my opinion, and have a right to express my opinion. In no way did my opinion allow bias to creep into me running the contest.
If I offended you with my opinion about the submissions, then I apologize. Now, if you guys wish to boycott the contests, that's your prerogative. I'm not going to force you into the contest. I do hope you'll reconsider.
@Yukora: If we did misenterpret your post, then it wasn't very well thought out anyway, as it was very easy to misunderstand. And yes, you may have your opinion on the submissions of course, but it's better if you, after the contest is finished, tell us who you wished had won, instead of who "obviously wasn't the best". This can be offending, you know. Some might not care, but some might actually take offense. Boycotting contest? Nah, I'm fairly convinced we've come over this now, and it won't happen again I'm sure. I don't mind participating in more clan contests
@Sephiroth Owa: Wow, congratulations! Incredible, 72 boosters and a premier event win. Respect! I haven't participated in a release tournament yet, because I can't stand sealed... It costs you twice as many boosters and is only half as fun, I prefer drafts all the way. Premier event drafts would be nice!
god of cyanide's username is also Berzerko X, I think.

apology accepted. however, dude, you should understand that there are few ways to take
Quote from Yukora, from the called thread »
I have noticed the Greek's rig-vote, as well. I think this is the last time crap like that will be tolerated, as the submissions voted for are obviously not the best.
that don't make you sound like (1) you're accusing the greeks of some form of voting impropriety and (2) you're allowing your personal value judgements on the quality of submissions to influence your views on the voting in the contest.
one must be very careful with the written word.
i never accused you of being biased - insensitive, though, absolutely, especially considering that this was an artistic contest (de gustibus, and all that jazz). but i didn't think you'd ever manipulate the vote yourself in order to make your favorites unfairly come out on top. you wouldn't be able to do it, even if you wanted, as the voting is public, and subject to the scrutiny of the contestants.
all the clans that participated should be acknowledged for the quality of their submissions, and the moderator of the contest has a tacit obligation to not publicly support or denounce anyone's submission. you're entitled to your opinion, but you should consider the ramifications of expressing that opinion in a public forum when you are running the contest... especially when expressing that opinion in conjunction with accusations of voting chicanery.
i hope we'll be done with this crap soon; i feel i've given it more than the attention it warrants.
Hey all. Just thought I'd mention... WOOT! I won a release event and 72 boosters!
I'm rich!!!
Well, in booster terminology at least.
WTG sephy!!! i would have done better, i suspect, were it not for two minor details:
1. listening to a friend who told me i just had to run aeon chronicler
and
2. NEVER drawing into my tolarian sentinel/reality acid combo!!!
god of cyanide's username is also berzerko x, I think.
fixed for caps but yeah, sene's got you there. BTW, if anyone has any putrefy or mortify they'd be willing to donate to my prismatic deck, please ... i mostly play alternate formats on MTGO. i have a tribal myr deck , a singleton deck, and a prismatic deck. i don't play much standard or extended, as i'm pretty much a super-budget constructed player. oh, and i am ALWAYS up for a game of momir basic!!!
Someone get Wuffles in here. rianalnn has just proposed a Mafia game between clans as the next contest, and you'd better believe I want a piece of that. We must voice our unwavering support in the Clan Council thread at once!

AWSOME! I would so get into that. I haven't played mafia at all, but I played a game exactly the same, except in a werewolf scene.
OMG! I can't believe I forgot to congratulate Sephy!
Go Sephy! It's yo birthday! Go Sephy!
In other news, my friends just filmed me headbutting 2 inch thick slabs of asphalt, of which I plan to add to myspace and youtube. The first piece broke, and it hurt like hell.
Hmm...mafia game against clans? That would be fun (too bad i havent had that much experience in online mafia, but i have played some in real life, and recently got into playing online).
Oh yea, im alive by the way, forgot to let you know. Im probably going to be gone until saturday, with only brief checkins on this site until then. If im not back by Saturday night, check to see if theres any national news involving a swingset. If there is, that will lead you to me.
Sick from school today. I went to the doctor, at least it's bacterial, so I should just wait and it'll go away.
Big news: Today, my second brother (my first already is one) became an Eagle Scout officially! It was his court of honor, along with 4 other lucky Eagles and rank advancements/merit badges for all of the others in the pack/troop. Big event, we only have one annually.
We had an ex-mayor of LA lined up as the keynote speaker... but he didn't show! The funny thing is that my scoutmaster is a landlord, and happens to be the landlord of the ex-mayor's restaurant, and is known in my neighborhood for being very harsh with prices and the like. I'm guessing that ex-mayor is going to be driven out very fast.
I had to give the speech about my brother, and was notified only a week in advance. I couldn't think of anything, regardless of my family's help. So just before I left, I wrote the three things I liked most about about my brother (Trustworthy, kind, brave) onto my hand, and decided to make it up on the spot. When my name was called, I got up there, explained my notes, and proceeded to do the shortest speech I've ever seen for an eagle scout. Then I sat down, before I was supposed to, and my brother had to walk over to give the customary family hug, but I didn't realize what he was doing, so I fell over when he tried to pull me out of the seat for it. It was an awkward moment.
Anyway, apparently people liked it. Most did, at least. I got like 5 people coming up to me saying "awesome" and one saying "horrible", so I think that's pretty good.
And now I'm the last brother left to get his Eagle. Exciting.
Hey all. Just thought I'd mention... WOOT! I won a release event and 72 boosters!
I'm rich!!!
Well, in booster terminology at least.
I'll post the list later on today if I have time.

I agree. Mafia and this clan are the only two things I do on this site anymore, doing them both at once would be incredible. Perfect.
Sick from school today. I went to the doctor, at least it's bacterial, so I should just wait and it'll go away.
good deal, feel better, bro!
Big news: Today, my second brother (my first already is one) became an Eagle Scout officially!
congrats to your brother, congrats to you for giving a good speech, and best of luck to you becoming an eagle scout.
i tried to do the scouting thing, but it bored the crap out of me once i hit 12.
Unhinged-style funny or normal MTG goblin-style funny?
a little of both, actually, with some mildly risqué humor thrown in. i'll try to find a spoils spoiler
Wow... bad GoC! I was thinking more 15-17 when I said that.
hehehe well, yeah, i started early, but, in a way, it makes sense, because i was a year ahead in school. all of my classmates were 15... but seriously, it wasn't like i was getting drunk more than, say, every saturday night. usually, i was hanging out with some guys from whatever band i was in at the time, plus a few other friends.
I agree. Mafia and this clan are the only two things I do on this site anymore, doing them both at once would be incredible. Perfect.
i've never played mafia ever, in any format. i looked at the mafia primer thing in the forum and it seems interesting, so i'm willing to try it out in the clan contest, unless you guys would think it's smarter for me not to be a n00b in a clan contest. i will absolutely NOT be offended if you think so. i want what's best for the clan, and participating in the mafia game is less important to me than giving us a good chance to win!
There are a number of people we could send. I can't play, of course, since I'm helping mod it. Hunted Charlie and Wuffles both have a fair amount of experience, and Faerie Lord did play in that forum game that shall not be named.
But anyone who hasn't played before who wants to should have a shot.
Hi everyone, this is the first chance I've had to post since I got back from my vacation to Washington, DC. What have I missed?

Well, hasn't this clan been quite inactive, and lacking of its critical members as of recent.
Anyhow, I'm not sure what to say, or what to do, but I shall say that I might be going on a very, very long hiatus; its reasons will not be explicitly stated, but I should think that this is due to lack of interest (in general, and in posting), and things interesting; work/time; and the fact that I, more or less, come here out of boredom and laziness (to do other things - procrastination), and the MTGSWiki (but that itself is a manageable task if I were to check on it only once a week), and admittedly, The Gutter, where acceptance is everything (yes, I have posted in it (:sweat:), but I don't let it get to me; reading is much more fun, but it's rather difficult to post a random link/material/content when you're a lurker - Cubus should know this). Also, I'd just like to say that I'm not dead yet.:cool:
Contact: I am contactable by my MSN address, but I am rarely online.;-/ Addendum: See bottom; I promise that I shall visit.
Anyway, some clan-oriented matters:
@cooljeanius: Happy (belated, but only here - I wished him well on the day itself, or a day earlier) birthday.
@Sene: Happy 2,000 posts.
@Yukora: You do good, so keep it up.^_^ I hope to see you as a Global, one day.
@Sephiroth Owa: Congratulations on the windfall! May it continue in due course.
@Umgenni Kemo: Where've you been?
@Wuffles: Where art thou?
@Hunted Charlie: I wish you well, and that you swiftly recover.
@Others: Sorry that I've not got a message specifically to you, but ... yeah.

Same here, but I rarely do see movies, anyway. That also goes for movies such as teen comedies, e.g. American Pie, Not Another Teen Movie, etc; those Jackass movies; and such movies. I'm not sure whether Cruel Intentions can be considered one of these, but I must admit that I did quite like the first one, for its storyline, which is incomparable with the book.
I'll try to check in from time to time, maybe even every day, but don't expect me to have anything to say.

You'd be good, but I think we should probably give it to a more experienced player. I wish the whole clan would be in, because we have ~3 or 4 members interested in playing.
There are a number of people we could send. I can't play, of course, since I'm helping mod it. Hunted Charlie and Wuffles both have a fair amount of experience, and Faerie Lord did play in that forum game that shall not be named.
But anyone who hasn't played before who wants to should have a shot.
I'd definitely be up for Clan Mafia, for sure, and I'm pretty sure our Clan Mafia Rep should be one of me, Wuffles_II, or Cubus.
I'm obviously rooting for myself. But I guess if I'm not picked, I can at least help out in the group (night) discussions.
I'll try to check in from time to time, maybe even every day, but don't expect me to have anything to say.
Keep cool, peeps.
See you 'round.
Well then, this might be a good time to announce my own withdrawal plan. The plan:
1) I shall not ever be in more than 2 mafia games playing at once, nor shall I be in more than 3 mafia games combined playing/signed up for at once.
2) I shall slowly tone down the number of replies in the [499] thread, until I am down to between 1 post/2 days to 1 post/3 days.
3) Eventually, I will switch to a "Whenever I feel like it" policy, which means anywhere between 2 post/day and 1 post/week.
So, I definitely won't be leaving here anytime soon, but I hope to stop my nightly posts, because they contribute to me getting a half-hour or an hour less sleep each night.
Agreeded. By far the best mafia player in 499 would be Arimnaes. Dammit all man, why'd you agree to co-mod
The others that I play regularly with are hunted charlie and cubus. Plus, once with faerie lord, but I've never seen him complete a forum mafia game before.
But anyways.
I have not been here in a while because I have been doing too much stuff all at once - multiple mafia games + Colosseum + getting new NZ website up and running (being content administrator may SOUND fun, but it really is kind of a lot of work...I could use some monkeys with typewriters to help me...but not capuchins...I hate those manipulative little bastards, with their big brown eyes...:p ) + university. I actually don't have time to be posting right now, but, screw it.

I had to give the speech about my brother, and was notified only a week in advance. I couldn't think of anything, regardless of my family's help. So just before I left, I wrote the three things I liked most about about my brother (Trustworthy, kind, brave) onto my hand, and decided to make it up on the spot. When my name was called, I got up there, explained my notes, and proceeded to do the shortest speech I've ever seen for an eagle scout. Then I sat down, before I was supposed to, and my brother had to walk over to give the customary family hug, but I didn't realize what he was doing, so I fell over when he tried to pull me out of the seat for it. It was an awkward moment.
Anyway, apparently people liked it. Most did, at least. I got like 5 people coming up to me saying "awesome" and one saying "horrible", so I think that's pretty good.
And now I'm the last brother left to get his Eagle. Exciting.
Unhinged-style funny or normal MTG goblin-style funny?
Wow... bad GoC! I was thinking more 15-17 when I said that.
Good job! That's 72 more boosters than I have!
Really though, that's an incredible haul. Nice.
I agree. Mafia and this clan are the only two things I do on this site anymore, doing them both at once would be incredible. Perfect.
Second it more.
Good night everybody. Hope for a better tomorrow.
Really important guy at the [499]!
good deal, feel better, bro!
congrats to your brother, congrats to you for giving a good speech, and best of luck to you becoming an eagle scout.
i tried to do the scouting thing, but it bored the crap out of me once i hit 12.
a little of both, actually, with some mildly risqué humor thrown in. i'll try to find a spoils spoiler
hehehe well, yeah, i started early, but, in a way, it makes sense, because i was a year ahead in school. all of my classmates were 15... but seriously, it wasn't like i was getting drunk more than, say, every saturday night. usually, i was hanging out with some guys from whatever band i was in at the time, plus a few other friends.
i've never played mafia ever, in any format. i looked at the mafia primer thing in the forum and it seems interesting, so i'm willing to try it out in the clan contest, unless you guys would think it's smarter for me not to be a n00b in a clan contest. i will absolutely NOT be offended if you think so. i want what's best for the clan, and participating in the mafia game is less important to me than giving us a good chance to win!
always, brother... always.
of course, dude. life is all about the learning. when you stop learning, you stop living!!!

And if I've offended you, I'm sorry, but maybe you need to be offended. But here's my apology and one more thing...
But anyone who hasn't played before who wants to should have a shot.

Anyhow, I'm not sure what to say, or what to do, but I shall say that I might be going on a very, very long hiatus; its reasons will not be explicitly stated, but I should think that this is due to lack of interest (in general, and in posting), and things interesting; work/time; and the fact that I, more or less, come here out of boredom and laziness (to do other things - procrastination), and the MTGSWiki (but that itself is a manageable task if I were to check on it only once a week), and admittedly, The Gutter, where acceptance is everything (yes, I have posted in it (:sweat:), but I don't let it get to me; reading is much more fun, but it's rather difficult to post a random link/material/content when you're a lurker - Cubus should know this). Also, I'd just like to say that I'm not dead yet.:cool:
Contact: I am contactable by my MSN address, but I am rarely online.;-/ Addendum: See bottom; I promise that I shall visit.
Anyway, some clan-oriented matters:
@cooljeanius: Happy (belated, but only here - I wished him well on the day itself, or a day earlier) birthday.
@Sene: Happy 2,000 posts.
@Yukora: You do good, so keep it up.^_^ I hope to see you as a Global, one day.
@Sephiroth Owa: Congratulations on the windfall! May it continue in due course.
@Umgenni Kemo: Where've you been?
@Wuffles: Where art thou?
@Hunted Charlie: I wish you well, and that you swiftly recover.
@Others: Sorry that I've not got a message specifically to you, but ... yeah.
Same here, but I rarely do see movies, anyway. That also goes for movies such as teen comedies, e.g. American Pie, Not Another Teen Movie, etc; those Jackass movies; and such movies. I'm not sure whether Cruel Intentions can be considered one of these, but I must admit that I did quite like the first one, for its storyline, which is incomparable with the book.
I'll try to check in from time to time, maybe even every day, but don't expect me to have anything to say.
Keep cool, peeps.
Meh, you probably had a bad troop. Ours is really lax, and we go on campouts and play with knives and fire. It's crazy-cool.
You'd be good, but I think we should probably give it to a more experienced player. I wish the whole clan would be in, because we have ~3 or 4 members interested in playing.
I'd definitely be up for Clan Mafia, for sure, and I'm pretty sure our Clan Mafia Rep should be one of me, Wuffles_II, or Cubus.
I'm obviously rooting for myself. But I guess if I'm not picked, I can at least help out in the group (night) discussions.
See you 'round.
Well then, this might be a good time to announce my own withdrawal plan. The plan:
1) I shall not ever be in more than 2 mafia games playing at once, nor shall I be in more than 3 mafia games combined playing/signed up for at once.
2) I shall slowly tone down the number of replies in the [499] thread, until I am down to between 1 post/2 days to 1 post/3 days.
3) Eventually, I will switch to a "Whenever I feel like it" policy, which means anywhere between 2 post/day and 1 post/week.
So, I definitely won't be leaving here anytime soon, but I hope to stop my nightly posts, because they contribute to me getting a half-hour or an hour less sleep each night.
G'night everybody. I already am, sort of. And it's a weekend!
The others that I play regularly with are hunted charlie and cubus. Plus, once with faerie lord, but I've never seen him complete a forum mafia game before.
But anyways.
I have not been here in a while because I have been doing too much stuff all at once - multiple mafia games + Colosseum + getting new NZ website up and running (being content administrator may SOUND fun, but it really is kind of a lot of work...I could use some monkeys with typewriters to help me...but not capuchins...I hate those manipulative little bastards, with their big brown eyes...:p ) + university. I actually don't have time to be posting right now, but, screw it.
Hi Jen. I miss posting here, too.
