Mission Statement
With the breaking of the guildpact, the death of our former leader, and the general chaos going on in our plane and others multiverse-wide, we seek to bring a new era to House Dimir, by controlling the chaos. This very controlled chaos is exemplified in our leaderless clan. While the shadows are still our greatest ally, we now use them as a weapon, not as a hiding hole.

Congrats! I now have fifty links to change, lol.
Happy to be on the header.
I love our new mission statement, btw. Freaking awesome. No complaints on the mission statement, or the way the thread looks. Kudos.
(Apperently I clearly missed something on our old thread. I apologize for speaking ill of the dead. I knew about Archon, but not Quek...I'm soooo sorry:()
-edit-
Two things, I'm a prick:)
Acolades and Awards should be before everyone's bios, I think. The members bios (which I now love and take back all cmplaints and reasonings against) thing might even be better at the bottom of the header, opposed to the top.
The other thing, it would be nice to have a mention of mchief being an honorary member, and an obvious link to his thread. Something like my link, but it could be whatever.
Other than those small things:
If I already haven't hammered into your minds that I'm getting a booster box of NPH on thursday, then I AM!
I'll need to relive the experience of a limited environment by playing a sealed with em....or something.
EDIT: I think I've find my 'gameday' standard deck. I'm need to grab as many copies of Phyrexian Metamorph, then play with Grand Architects and Lux Cannons!

One of those two, I'd meant to do but it had slipped my mind. Sorry mchief, adding special mention for you in the 'friends' section now.
Edit: Also, once your shop reopens in June, I'll add a link on the header to it.
And I personally like having all the members directly after the mission statement, and then all the other stuff slightly seperate. What's everyone else think?
Also, DCD-
1) Dead leader does not refer to Quek. Afaik, he is alive and kicking, just not here. That'd be Szadek.
2) Any chance I could get you to start working on a short history write-up? Just major highlights like changes in leadership 'n such.

Indeed. I see now, and really agree with you about the order now. So no biggies:) I'm happy about it, and besides the special mention, don't see a reason to really change it.
Great job;)
And about the history...
Almost done. Expect a timeline and a breif history in the next 3-6 days. I was going to post it here before I started teying to change the wiki, anyway:) So stay tuned...
Oh yeah, speaking of game day (and a standard FNM first, as I want to try to do a one week trifecta of tourneys), I'm brewing a sui black list for standard, and also a grand architect 'big blue' (styled after big red) list. I'm really looking forward to getting big blue (or bear in the house, I'm not sure yet) together, 'cause plays starting t3 can be something like:
t3: Architect, myr superion, go.
t4: make superion blue, metamorph as architect, beat for 7, second mainphase moltensteel dragon, go.
I'm also going to a legacy gpt this saturday, where I will run high tide if I can get the pieces I need to borrow together quickly enough; and if not will run either TES or Goblins (whichever a buddy of mine doesn't run.)
The week after that, a local college besides mine is randomly holding an extended tourney, and I've been told their meta is fairly casual. As such, I hope to tear up with a budget-y PA list.

@Drove my Chevy to the Levy but the Levy was Bri, Yea! Good luck in the tournaments. Try to post deck lists for ideas or critiques.
@Vez and Reya,
I want to see some Mafia ideas:)
I am currently in my first game, so sadly probably can't help in the way of design. I had a few concerns that shoukd be addressed before getting down to the nitty gritty....
1) Will this be stepping on The Family's toes? I know lots of active users play mafia, but is it excepted enough across the boards to really host something like this? Someone needs to clear it with them, because Mafia is def their thing, (I doubt they would care, but someone a little more familiour with the clan than I am needs to clear it), nah'meen?
2) Is this something that we can get other people outside clans and the normal mafia folk to play?
The reason I had suggested a mws tournament because it is something that would appeal to (hopefully) all mtgs users. Especially non clans forums users. Bringing new blood, and getting recognized not only for contributions to the clan forum, but to mtgs in general, will further place us in the running of Clan of the Year.
That being said, Mafia is soooo much fun, and we are gonna make this work, (if able). These are concerns of mine that I would like addressed before we get any further, though.
@Vez, Planechase and Arch Enemy are loads upon loads of fun. What specialty "decks" were being used?
I rarely play casual unless there is a tournament, or we play edh, archenemy or planeschase, (often all three). My meta usually will play with format specific decks, and with the competitivness that drives us, without those buffers it ceases to be casual. Do you know what I mean?
Anyway, I'm glad you liked them:)

@Shinen, Alley„ not ally.
If the clan thing does not work we can host a regular mafia game. Also I think we should have a weekly deck of the week that we can add in the spare time
I have a question that I hope one of you will know about. One of my friends has software that lets him get pokemon for free on the video game, and we've been trying to figure out some common ground for trading between pokemon on the video game and magic cards. The pokemon that he has that he could give me are Lugios, Lugias, the three legendarys from emerald, and mew. Does anyone know how much these would be worth so I can give him cards for them?
I'd say $8 - $15 worth of CARDS

@Tez, none. Get the software yourself, seriously. It can't be hard, and you're a bright young man.
Either way using a modded game is cheating. Catch them all/trade for them all, or quit while trying.
Using even traded bastard pokemon does not make you a Pokemon Master, it makes you a cheater.
@Reya, deck of the week? I like that:) I have many thoughts about this. Perhaps we can give some kind of standard rubric for each deck, and anyone can enter, but only house members can vote on all the entries at the end of the week?? Something like that would be sweeeeeeet.
We can host mafia games? Will they let us do that???
How can we get a huge mafia game going???
I think something magic flavor wise would be cool.
Massive Multiplayer Mafia....
Could we maybe have factions? Each faction could have their own thread, and there could be a "voice" for every faction, like a rep? Or maybe two huge factions can be at war somehow, and we could jot only put scum against the two factions, but each other? Hm. No clue.
We could randomly assign people as house dimir, and they'd be scum hiding in other factions, they could be scum. Then the scum/dimir could work completely against the faction. idk. Would something like that work?
I have no clue how to run a mafia game (much less an mmmg, lol), so if my ideas are silly disregard them. If there is anything I can do to assist, holla.

You could have multiple mafias in a game. It is actually quite common. IDK about multiple towns that would just get crazy. Maybe something similiar to the ogre classes like someone can pick a player and if they are the same faction they get a oneshot vigil or something.

@Reya, I have no clue. I'll leave it to you and Vez, lol:) I trust whatever ya'll come up with will be cool. Have you guys ran games before? Keep us informed, please.
What about the Family? Someone ask, yet?
I would like to address a somewhat long term goal...
Membership. I know we have six actives now, but we need at least a few more members. If we had 12-15 actives in our clan, we would be unstoppable.
So, we have a Mafia game in the works. From now on, I will refer to Reya and Vez's Mafia promotion as The Scum Report (like the colbert report). Or maybe even team scum...I don't care what it's called just label it, because..
If it is okay with you, I'd like to run with a clan of the week as per your earlier post. Since I have no real mafia expirience, I'll feel silly trying to help on a non flavor basis, lol. And if you and Vez are doing the Scum Report, I'd like to feel productive. Is this okay?
We can do a bunch of things, right? Psh:) Why the heck wouldn't we, we rock!
We can refer to this as The CardClub for now, (assuming it is okay to run with). May I have a volunteer to help me get this off the ground?
@Whoever is not teamed up, doing something: any ideas you two could come up with and roll, please do so. More production= higher rate of success.
If we break into teams like this for clan promotion/fun, we would give everyone no choice but to notice us and like us more. We will have trophies by our names come January. If done effectivly, of course.
All go aheads will need to be clan approved, though.
Does this sound like a plan?
Sounds forward, realistic, and friggin' great to me
(Although you cats know I'd want to hear any and all concerns;)
Edit-
@Mchief, thanks a lot, man! I just noticed your earlier post, (sorry). We won thanks in a big part to you. You rock! I can hardly wait for your shop to start taking requests, I want to request a holiday sig, lol.
The card we created is my favorite planeswalker ever period. AND THE ART THE ART.

@Jolt, neat! I love Phyrexian Metamorph. And my like of Lux Cannon is growing daily.
Initial thought: gixitation probe. Word up. Maybe some myr pushers and a superion or three? Keep informed.
I'm swiching my standard deck back up to ub, right now. Super Friends only worked because noone was expecting it, (again, lol). I got smashed at fnm and everyone was like, "that's so last season", Still, I was able to pull off some decent wins until everyone got wind.
I would like to shave 2 cards off, but am at a loss. Ideas? I took out half my permission for stuff like Contagion Clasp and the Battlespheres. I think this should stop giving me too much selective permission. I am also thinking of throwing in some Lux Cannons and/or Phyrexian Revokers, but again, am at a loss.
This build will only be played at one tournament, tonight, before the new set drops. I still would like any and all input.(but no np in, yet)
@Clan, volunteer to help with the deck of the week ideas??? We can accomplish so much if we broke down in teams and focused. Come on, it'll be funnnn!
Right now it's hovering between Lux Cannon-Proliferate/Grand Architect-damage and/or lots of other stuff.
Agree with me that it's a mess right now. Just do it, so I have someone that agrees with me. Obviously it doesn't have focus.
Alright cool, now that that's out of the way.
I only have one Tezz right now. Currently I don't have any black but the one tezz so I took out the Sphere of the Suns. I could go with point removal or discard if I open any with NPH. I might take out the Darkslick Shores in lieu of more catacombs and basics.
Will have to throw in some countermagic, thinking Corrupted Resolve will be a nice touch. Caress of Phyrexia just seems like a 'finisher' move too.
Or I could go with more of a creature base with Thrumming Birds or whatever.
Again right now, I have like 3 shells mushed together. I just need to focus on one and stick with it. 0_o
Hey, I have an ethics question. There's this kid in one of my classes that I take at the local college, and he has a Jace the Mind Sculptor. He hates the card and wants to get rid of it, and I don't think he knows how much it's worth. He has expressed great interest in my collection of sphinxes (I draw a lot of them) and he wants to trade them for his Jace. The sphinxes are probably $30 in total. Should I give him more, or just go with the trade.
I'd point it out to him that JtMS holds some value. Ask if it's alright if you can put in more, obviously to make it more fair on his end.
If he's fine with it, then at least you offered to balance it out. Every once in a while, I bump into someone who scales a trade in my favor just because. It's in some people's nature to be more generous.
Here's my proliferate deck that I've been using and it works out fine.
Mission Statement

This very controlled chaos is exemplified in our leaderless clan. While the shadows are still our greatest ally, we now use them as a weapon, not as a hiding hole.

Congrats! I now have fifty links to change, lol.
Happy to be on the header.
I love our new mission statement, btw. Freaking awesome. No complaints on the mission statement, or the way the thread looks. Kudos.
(Apperently I clearly missed something on our old thread. I apologize for speaking ill of the dead. I knew about Archon, but not Quek...I'm soooo sorry:()
-edit-
Two things, I'm a prick:)
Acolades and Awards should be before everyone's bios, I think. The members bios (which I now love and take back all cmplaints and reasonings against) thing might even be better at the bottom of the header, opposed to the top.
The other thing, it would be nice to have a mention of mchief being an honorary member, and an obvious link to his thread. Something like my link, but it could be whatever.
Other than those small things:
Yay!!!! New thread rocks!
Congrats.

I'll need to relive the experience of a limited environment by playing a sealed with em....or something.
EDIT: I think I've find my 'gameday' standard deck. I'm need to grab as many copies of Phyrexian Metamorph, then play with Grand Architects and Lux Cannons!

One of those two, I'd meant to do but it had slipped my mind. Sorry mchief, adding special mention for you in the 'friends' section now.
Edit: Also, once your shop reopens in June, I'll add a link on the header to it.
And I personally like having all the members directly after the mission statement, and then all the other stuff slightly seperate. What's everyone else think?
Also, DCD-
1) Dead leader does not refer to Quek. Afaik, he is alive and kicking, just not here. That'd be Szadek.
2) Any chance I could get you to start working on a short history write-up? Just major highlights like changes in leadership 'n such.

I'm also going to a legacy gpt this saturday, where I will run high tide if I can get the pieces I need to borrow together quickly enough; and if not will run either TES or Goblins (whichever a buddy of mine doesn't run.)
The week after that, a local college besides mine is randomly holding an extended tourney, and I've been told their meta is fairly casual. As such, I hope to tear up with a budget-y PA list.

@Vez and Reya,
I want to see some Mafia ideas:)
I am currently in my first game, so sadly probably can't help in the way of design. I had a few concerns that shoukd be addressed before getting down to the nitty gritty....
1) Will this be stepping on The Family's toes? I know lots of active users play mafia, but is it excepted enough across the boards to really host something like this? Someone needs to clear it with them, because Mafia is def their thing, (I doubt they would care, but someone a little more familiour with the clan than I am needs to clear it), nah'meen?
2) Is this something that we can get other people outside clans and the normal mafia folk to play?
The reason I had suggested a mws tournament because it is something that would appeal to (hopefully) all mtgs users. Especially non clans forums users. Bringing new blood, and getting recognized not only for contributions to the clan forum, but to mtgs in general, will further place us in the running of Clan of the Year.
That being said, Mafia is soooo much fun, and we are gonna make this work, (if able). These are concerns of mine that I would like addressed before we get any further, though.
@Vez, Planechase and Arch Enemy are loads upon loads of fun. What specialty "decks" were being used?
I rarely play casual unless there is a tournament, or we play edh, archenemy or planeschase, (often all three). My meta usually will play with format specific decks, and with the competitivness that drives us, without those buffers it ceases to be casual. Do you know what I mean?
Anyway, I'm glad you liked them:)

I can help you. We can co do it. I'm also working on my own super bastard mod. Which is so mean it might get me banned from mafia
If the clan thing does not work we can host a regular mafia game. Also I think we should have a weekly deck of the week that we can add in the spare time
I'd say $8 - $15 worth of CARDS

Either way using a modded game is cheating. Catch them all/trade for them all, or quit while trying.
Using even traded bastard pokemon does not make you a Pokemon Master, it makes you a cheater.
@Reya, deck of the week? I like that:) I have many thoughts about this. Perhaps we can give some kind of standard rubric for each deck, and anyone can enter, but only house members can vote on all the entries at the end of the week?? Something like that would be sweeeeeeet.
We can host mafia games? Will they let us do that???
How can we get a huge mafia game going???
I think something magic flavor wise would be cool.
Massive Multiplayer Mafia....
Could we maybe have factions? Each faction could have their own thread, and there could be a "voice" for every faction, like a rep? Or maybe two huge factions can be at war somehow, and we could jot only put scum against the two factions, but each other? Hm. No clue.
We could randomly assign people as house dimir, and they'd be scum hiding in other factions, they could be scum. Then the scum/dimir could work completely against the faction. idk. Would something like that work?
I have no clue how to run a mafia game (much less an mmmg, lol), so if my ideas are silly disregard them. If there is anything I can do to assist, holla.

You could have multiple mafias in a game. It is actually quite common. IDK about multiple towns that would just get crazy. Maybe something similiar to the ogre classes like someone can pick a player and if they are the same faction they get a oneshot vigil or something.

What about the Family? Someone ask, yet?
I would like to address a somewhat long term goal...
Membership. I know we have six actives now, but we need at least a few more members. If we had 12-15 actives in our clan, we would be unstoppable.
So, we have a Mafia game in the works. From now on, I will refer to Reya and Vez's Mafia promotion as The Scum Report (like the colbert report). Or maybe even team scum...I don't care what it's called just label it, because..
If it is okay with you, I'd like to run with a clan of the week as per your earlier post. Since I have no real mafia expirience, I'll feel silly trying to help on a non flavor basis, lol. And if you and Vez are doing the Scum Report, I'd like to feel productive. Is this okay?
We can do a bunch of things, right? Psh:) Why the heck wouldn't we, we rock!
We can refer to this as The CardClub for now, (assuming it is okay to run with). May I have a volunteer to help me get this off the ground?
@Whoever is not teamed up, doing something: any ideas you two could come up with and roll, please do so. More production= higher rate of success.
If we break into teams like this for clan promotion/fun, we would give everyone no choice but to notice us and like us more. We will have trophies by our names come January. If done effectivly, of course.
All go aheads will need to be clan approved, though.
Does this sound like a plan?
Sounds forward, realistic, and friggin' great to me
(Although you cats know I'd want to hear any and all concerns;)
Edit-
@Mchief, thanks a lot, man! I just noticed your earlier post, (sorry). We won thanks in a big part to you. You rock! I can hardly wait for your shop to start taking requests, I want to request a holiday sig, lol.

I'm swiching my standard deck back up to ub, right now. Super Friends only worked because noone was expecting it, (again, lol). I got smashed at fnm and everyone was like, "that's so last season", Still, I was able to pull off some decent wins until everyone got wind.

I would like to shave 2 cards off, but am at a loss. Ideas? I took out half my permission for stuff like Contagion Clasp and the Battlespheres. I think this should stop giving me too much selective permission. I am also thinking of throwing in some Lux Cannons and/or Phyrexian Revokers, but again, am at a loss.
This build will only be played at one tournament, tonight, before the new set drops. I still would like any and all input.(but no np in, yet)

Right now it's hovering between Lux Cannon-Proliferate/Grand Architect-damage and/or lots of other stuff.
Agree with me that it's a mess right now. Just do it, so I have someone that agrees with me. Obviously it doesn't have focus.
Alright cool, now that that's out of the way.
I only have one Tezz right now. Currently I don't have any black but the one tezz so I took out the Sphere of the Suns. I could go with point removal or discard if I open any with NPH. I might take out the Darkslick Shores in lieu of more catacombs and basics.
Will have to throw in some countermagic, thinking Corrupted Resolve will be a nice touch. Caress of Phyrexia just seems like a 'finisher' move too.
Or I could go with more of a creature base with Thrumming Birds or whatever.
Again right now, I have like 3 shells mushed together. I just need to focus on one and stick with it. 0_o

I'd point it out to him that JtMS holds some value. Ask if it's alright if you can put in more, obviously to make it more fair on his end.
If he's fine with it, then at least you offered to balance it out. Every once in a while, I bump into someone who scales a trade in my favor just because. It's in some people's nature to be more generous.
