    Casual Card Hall of Fame Nomination: Conflux

    What does and doesn't attract new members is a different discussion (and I guess there's a thread for that) I do agree that this thread deserves more attention. Posting on the front page seems like a good idea to me, but I'm unsure it that really draws a lot of attention. The front page urgently...

    Casual Card Hall of Fame Nomination: Conflux

    I think the Hall of Fame is a thing to get the site moving. I'm afraid that if you wait for the site to get moving first, we'll never see the Hall completed. A contest like this should be able to draw a lot of comments. Unfortunately it doesn't. I respect your view on this matter, but as a newer...

    Casual Card Hall of Fame Nomination: Conflux

    Then you'd need 4-5 new members I think ;)

    Ah, why not... Isn't it about time something happens with this thread?

    50 Games To Play At Work

    Pandemic is nice. BTW, you could do the draft simulater on wizards site. A nice magic-related free game.

    Rise of the Eldrazi Storyline

    I read some pretty cool stuff about the Eldrazi last week in Dough Beyer's article. Apparently the names of the gods in the previous sets are derived from these Eldrazi. That's cool.

    Casual Card Hall of Fame Nomination: Conflux

    Ancient Ziggurat is an excellent suggestion.

    Revised Reprint Policy

    I think it's a bit of a pity. I liked the idea of the judge promo's, and I feel fine with judges getting exorbitant premium cards. I'm really glad they're axing the FtV madness though.

    Casual Card Hall of Fame Nomination: Conflux

    Oh, are we to name cards now? Sorry, I misinterpreted your post. Last time I wasn't really positive about Alara, I think Conflux is even worse. There are nice cards, but it doesn't really feel like a set. Apparently there's a big story behind the set, but I'm not really into third-grade fantasy...

    Spammers

    I think it's possible to set forum rights for members with a minimal number of posts. For instance, you can't email members until you have 10 posts. That way people have a way to prove they are legit ;) Personally I don't see the benefit of emailing members (by other users than the...

    YOUR favorite Commons in Magic

    Oversoul's list sure makes my work easier. I'd almost agree with Dark Ritual. You have to know that I was most actively playing magic in the time between Ice Age and Visions, and starting again with Nemesis (really). The second time around it was much clearer that DR is the powerhouse that it...

    Oversoul plays in a Legacy tournament...

    ANT seems to fit your vintage preferences indeed. If you're looking for a nice dark ritual based combo deck (that's probably a bit cheaper as well), look for Ill Gotten Gains (Iggy pop). Entomb Hulk plays like reanimator, which is my favorite archetype. I was looking for a deck to put my FoW's...

    Oversoul plays in a Legacy tournament...

    So why did you pick burn? Just because you had it assembled? The format is pretty good for a Zoo deck, which you should be familiar with. A pity you live so far away, I have several decks for Legacy lying around and gathering dust. Even a combo deck (Entomb Hulk). Even a storm combo deck, if...

    Oversoul plays in a Legacy tournament...

    Counterbalance/top should be the worst matchup for burn. I figured you'd be playing a combo deck.

    Worldwake Prerelease

    I played a 2HG prerelease in Amsterdam. Didn't see Modus Pwnens, but then again, I wouldn't know how to recognize him anyway. Results were a bit poor. We lost the first round because we forgot upkeep triggers twice. But I hadn't played a real magic game in three years, and my teammate only plays...

    Vwr Ftw

    Worldwake has a solid card for the deck: Basilisk Collar (1) Artifact - Equipment (rare) Equipped creature has deathtouch and lifelink. Equip (2) Cheaper than Warhammer of Behemoth Sledge. I think this turns this deck officially into a Goblin Sharpshooter deck. I'm still thinking about Blade...
