Allies!!! We at House Dimir are proud to say that we have formed the Triple alliance with both Izzet and Rakdos!!! Together, we will rule Ravnica.
If you want to become a member: 1. You must have 30 or more posts. This is to keep new people from wanting to be in the guild and then leave the site. 2. YOU MUST REMAIN AN ACTIVE MEMBER!!! By "active" we mean normally discussing amongst ourselves in our threads. If you start to become inactive, we will move you to the Dungeon and no longer be a member. 3. Please post here at least 2 times before asking for a membership. 4. Upon visiting a thread and meeting all requirements, I will not add you as a member for a few days until you've proven yourself as a valuable and consistant contributor.
Dimir – dih•MEER. I have heard it pronounced dee•MEER as well. The difference between the two is subtle, and the one you end up using will probably depend on the way the letter I usually rolls off your tongue. Either way is acceptable. However, to properly utter this word, it should be issued in breathy, hushed tones. It is a whispered word, if spoken at all. Szadek – ZAH•dehk. The “Sz” in his name, along with those of other Ravnican names, is pronounced with a dominant “Z” sound, though agile tongues will sneak a subtle “S” sound in as well. Many Eastern European languages would pronounce this letter pair as if it were “Sh.” Ravnica has many similarities to this region, but its use of “Sz” is not one of them. Moroii – MOHR•oy. This word, like “Sz” has Eastern European roots, but Ravnican pronunciation. Proper Romanian pronunciation of Moroii would be mohr•OY•ee.
Current Agenda/Discussion: Our Very own Forum! Working on Clan Contest #4. REPORT TO DIMIR FORUM! The revival of the sanctuary (hopefully) Back to school
I love how well the banner turned out. I was mostly playing around with brushes and effects and stuff, but it actually yielded my best Dimir banner so far
as for your MSN account, TT... download Messenger from messenger.msn.com Then create a .net passport (it will prompt you).
I've been stuck on vacation for at least two weeks, plugging away at my laptop whenever I got the chance.
I'll be starting school next Wednesday, and I'll definately have more free time on my hands.
Also, you seem to have forgot my bio. I had posted it a few threads back, but I guess it was forgotton:

That's an excellent banner, Purple. Probably one of our best yet.
I haven't dropped any of my courses yet, and I don't plan to. If I had a math course, though, I'd drop it in an instant.
Fridays are my best days for college: I only have one class (Intermediate Spanish I), and that class is at 11:30 and lasts only 50 minutes. After that it's all good.
Gentlemen, if you need college assistance, don't listen to me.
I totally screwed up some of my subjects, especially math and accounting. I've been delayed one whole year because of it. But not that I'm complaining. I just feel guilty sometimes for not trying hard enough.
I'm a senior now, but I'll be a super senior next year. Not a lot of people can brag about that.

Hit me up sometime. I'm not on as much as I used to be, but I show up every once and a while.
And PotN, those diagonal lines are called scanlines. If you have PS, PM me and I'll give you a quick rundown on how to make them.
S_C; I'll update the first post with your bio... you could make it a bit more... detailed
@ PurpleD: Well, I don't to overload it with info, now do I?
@ Mortal Wombat: Hope you have a good time at your first year of college.
I'm going to be a junior in HS and I'll be taking Med Bio, AP US History, Spanish 3, Advanced Functions, English 11/CP, and some other seemingly hard courses.
But that's probably because school is pretty easy for me. I never try and still get straight A's (and maybe a B or two if I really don't want to put myself into working)
Yuck, I hate my timetable... Math (hardest) social (worst) and English (most homework). Luckily, I got kickass options. Multimedia (PS and video stuff) and journalism. It's gonna be kick ass, because they're together. I can use my Multimedia skillz for journalism and vice-versa.
Oh, and speaking of multimedia, I freaking love our banner... It's our best one by far
Yes, all bow down and worship the great banner :p.
Did you update Trench yet PurpleD? Sorry to nag, but I'm not sorry. You've taken way to long :mad:. Trench was second best card game on the site, after fcc.

I'll bet you wish you had a non-unglued/unhinged card that shared your first name.
Sigh... there's not as much to do here on the weekend as I thought there'd be. There's a soccer game going on, but it's raining outside (just like it's been since I arrived at Allentown). I don't know of any parties happening. So that's why I'm here, I guess. I invited this girl to dinner, but she's out with her mom. I'm planning on watching a movie with her tomorrow, but I just know that she'll be doing something else, like she has been every other time I've asked her.
Well, I'll be gone on Saturday going with my friend to the first Oregon Duck Football game of the season vs. Stanford!!!! I got some very good seats (30-40 yarders) by the means of some good people I had known for a very long time.
On Sunday afternoon, I'll be playing in a store vs. store battle of CS. Basically, I have been going to one hobby shop that knows me like the back of their hand. They are the most successful store in town, and they have the coolest stuff there.
Then, there's this other store (let's call it Store X) that I absolutely refuse to go to. Ever since they opened their doors, I've boycotted their business for personal reasons and the fact that their the totally opposite of the other hobby shop (Store X is dark, dank, and not very welcoming to most people).
To get to the point, Store X's best CS players are 11-13 year old immature, boasting, whiny bastards that call people n00bs when they are winning, and on the other side of the coin, call them hackers when they're losing. They're ok when they work as a team, but that's it.
Our store accepted the challenge, and we are playing 5v5 CS. Our team is me (I'm really good at CS, and I have demolished the whiny people), 3 CAL members who are a little bit better than I am, and last guy (who also rocks at Magic) is a former CAL player who is a one-man army at the game. He gets consistant headshots with AWP, Scout, Deagle, AK, M4, etc. that it isn't funny. He even memorized moving patterns so he can wipe out people through walls when he has a hunch someone is there. He is a god at the game, and he's the one who taught me everything about CS.
So, we're extremely confidant that we'll slaughter, own, dominate (you get the idea) them and make sure they never mess with us again.
I invited this girl to dinner, but she's out with her mom. I'm planning on watching a movie with her tomorrow, but I just know that she'll be doing something else, like she has been every other time I've asked her.
Ouch, harsh. What have some of her reasons been? n other words, is she incredibly busy or is she blowing you off? (in the bad way, of course ;))

Oh, neato! My friend (goes by the name of Devilmonkey666 on here) is a ducks fan. He went to a camp down in Oregon, and yeah... He's got a cool ducks Lanyard. Although, their colours are Yellow and green, which are bad colours here in Calgary (same colours as our Rivals in the CFL; The Edmonton Eskimos).
Oh, and for a while I thought you meant Counterstrike... ot Coldsnap. Or did you mean Counterstrike? I'm pretty sure you meant coldsnap, but I'm tried
EDITUpon further investigation, he Definately means counterstirke
Haha, I got it now. I was re-reading it, and thus the edit line!!!
1.6 is so much easier than source. When I played it, I found this cool trick with the AK that if you pulled your mouse down as you sprayed, it made up for the recoil and you could get a perfectly straight and on target shot every time. It was sweet, but in CSS AK has random recoil, although it has insane power.
Speaking of CS, I played it yesterday for the first time in months. I was playing in office with a machine gun. It was fun... shoot first, aim later
I don't know if it's just me, but it seems that it's easier to get headshots on CSS (since the heads appear to be bigger), but yeah, you can't do anymore silly recoil shenanigans. And yes, they did make the AK even more powerful in source.
Though CS punishes you for being like Rambo. I almost never buy the Para, since it costs so much money...
Italy was always my favorite map. With CTs I'd rush through the apartment and with Ts I'd sit back and sharpshoot the long stairs or the occassional camp on top of the apartment. that pisses people off so much.

Yes it is. The hitboxes are larger in the head region then they are in CS 1.6. But Condition Zero has the largest hitboxes.
If you dont know, a person (CT or T) is made up of hitboxes. The ones in the more devastating regions are larger, thus why it kills someone faster. It you buy kevlar, that makes the hitboxes smaller in your chest region, same with a helmet.

Dimir – dih•MEER. I have heard it pronounced dee•MEER as well. The difference between the two is subtle, and the one you end up using will probably depend on the way the letter I usually rolls off your tongue. Either way is acceptable. However, to properly utter this word, it should be issued in breathy, hushed tones. It is a whispered word, if spoken at all.
Szadek – ZAH•dehk. The “Sz” in his name, along with those of other Ravnican names, is pronounced with a dominant “Z” sound, though agile tongues will sneak a subtle “S” sound in as well. Many Eastern European languages would pronounce this letter pair as if it were “Sh.” Ravnica has many similarities to this region, but its use of “Sz” is not one of them.
Moroii – MOHR•oy. This word, like “Sz” has Eastern European roots, but Ravnican pronunciation. Proper Romanian pronunciation of Moroii would be mohr•OY•ee.
Current Agenda/Discussion:

I've been stuck on vacation for at least two weeks, plugging away at my laptop whenever I got the chance.
I'll be starting school next Wednesday, and I'll definately have more free time on my hands.
Also, you seem to have forgot my bio. I had posted it a few threads back, but I guess it was forgotton:
Name: Brian (parents will kill me if I give out my last name)
Age: 16/M
What I like to do: Play chess, Magic, soccer, go swimming, play counter-strike, and hang out with friends.
What decks do I like to play: Anything with blue is a deck I'll play. I've been playing blue-based control forever and ever, and of course I play 'Tog. What more could you expect from a fellow Dimir member?
Favorite Magic card: Counterspell Nothing is better than playing mindgames with two untapped islands.
And yeah, I guess I'll update my bio with more info when I can.

Man, I hear ya. I have Chemistry and European History this next year. It's the balls :/ (a bad thing Lol )

Haha. My friend got that from somewhere ...
@PurpleD, nice banner. Probably one of my fav's.
@For all that Care, me and Jess are back together.
I haven't dropped any of my courses yet, and I don't plan to. If I had a math course, though, I'd drop it in an instant.
Fridays are my best days for college: I only have one class (Intermediate Spanish I), and that class is at 11:30 and lasts only 50 minutes. After that it's all good.
I totally screwed up some of my subjects, especially math and accounting. I've been delayed one whole year because of it. But not that I'm complaining. I just feel guilty sometimes for not trying hard enough.
I'm a senior now, but I'll be a super senior next year. Not a lot of people can brag about that.

Hit me up sometime. I'm not on as much as I used to be, but I show up every once and a while.
And PotN, those diagonal lines are called scanlines. If you have PS, PM me and I'll give you a quick rundown on how to make them.
S_C; I'll update the first post with your bio... you could make it a bit more... detailed

@ Mortal Wombat: Hope you have a good time at your first year of college.
I'm going to be a junior in HS and I'll be taking Med Bio, AP US History, Spanish 3, Advanced Functions, English 11/CP, and some other seemingly hard courses.
But that's probably because school is pretty easy for me. I never try and still get straight A's (and maybe a B or two if I really don't want to put myself into working)
I've got Art I (easiest), AP American History I, Algebra II / Trigonometry, English II, Spanish II, and Chemistry
All of them being honors.

Did you update Trench yet PurpleD? Sorry to nag, but I'm not sorry. You've taken way to long :mad:. Trench was second best card game on the site, after fcc.
Anyways, It's tallied, added and PSed to perfection
I was bored...

On Sunday afternoon, I'll be playing in a store vs. store battle of CS. Basically, I have been going to one hobby shop that knows me like the back of their hand. They are the most successful store in town, and they have the coolest stuff there.
Then, there's this other store (let's call it Store X) that I absolutely refuse to go to. Ever since they opened their doors, I've boycotted their business for personal reasons and the fact that their the totally opposite of the other hobby shop (Store X is dark, dank, and not very welcoming to most people).
To get to the point, Store X's best CS players are 11-13 year old immature, boasting, whiny bastards that call people n00bs when they are winning, and on the other side of the coin, call them hackers when they're losing. They're ok when they work as a team, but that's it.
Our store accepted the challenge, and we are playing 5v5 CS. Our team is me (I'm really good at CS, and I have demolished the whiny people), 3 CAL members who are a little bit better than I am, and last guy (who also rocks at Magic) is a former CAL player who is a one-man army at the game. He gets consistant headshots with AWP, Scout, Deagle, AK, M4, etc. that it isn't funny. He even memorized moving patterns so he can wipe out people through walls when he has a hunch someone is there. He is a god at the game, and he's the one who taught me everything about CS.
So, we're extremely confidant that we'll slaughter, own, dominate (you get the idea) them and make sure they never mess with us again.
Let the killing commence! (come Sept 2nd)
Ouch, harsh. What have some of her reasons been? n other words, is she incredibly busy or is she blowing you off? (in the bad way, of course ;))
Oh, neato! My friend (goes by the name of Devilmonkey666 on here) is a ducks fan. He went to a camp down in Oregon, and yeah... He's got a cool ducks Lanyard. Although, their colours are Yellow and green, which are bad colours here in Calgary (same colours as our Rivals in the CFL; The Edmonton Eskimos).
Oh, and for a while I thought you meant Counterstrike... ot Coldsnap. Or did you mean Counterstrike? I'm pretty sure you meant coldsnap, but I'm tried
EDITUpon further investigation, he Definately means counterstirke

1.6 is so much easier than source. When I played it, I found this cool trick with the AK that if you pulled your mouse down as you sprayed, it made up for the recoil and you could get a perfectly straight and on target shot every time. It was sweet, but in CSS AK has random recoil, although it has insane power.
Speaking of CS, I played it yesterday for the first time in months. I was playing in office with a machine gun. It was fun... shoot first, aim later

Though CS punishes you for being like Rambo. I almost never buy the Para, since it costs so much money...
Italy was always my favorite map. With CTs I'd rush through the apartment and with Ts I'd sit back and sharpshoot the long stairs or the occassional camp on top of the apartment. that pisses people off so much.
I don't know if it's just me, but it seems that it's easier to get headshots on CSS (since the heads appear to be bigger), but yeah, you can't do anymore silly recoil shenanigans. And yes, they did make the AK even more powerful in source.
Yes it is. The hitboxes are larger in the head region then they are in CS 1.6. But Condition Zero has the largest hitboxes.
If you dont know, a person (CT or T) is made up of hitboxes. The ones in the more devastating regions are larger, thus why it kills someone faster. It you buy kevlar, that makes the hitboxes smaller in your chest region, same with a helmet.
