Meech

I want to tell you Prof, I've actually gotten into Pauper largely thanks to you (as well as @carlmarket.bsky.social and Mengu). It's a great format and I'm slowly infecting my Pioneer group with it. We come early and play before FNM. If I ever get picked for a fan SU&P we better get to play pauper!

I moved to a new state, so playing at the LGS has been a boon for making new friends. My partner and I finally bought a house so my LGS is going to be further now. Not too far, but I may end up cutting down from weekly to every-other 😢. I'm still excited to try new stores in my new area however.

I work as a purchaser for a US auto manufacturer. I buy tools from various countries all over the world. This mess has made my job so miserable.

Has anyone proposed the name "Root Loot Riot" for the deck yet?

The Cardmarket crew seem like such awesome hosts. In the beginning when you mentioned you were waiting to be picked up, I was expecting a taxi or something. Not an incredible walking tour led by Carl!

Spirits for sure

I go to a store that hit capacity and had to turn people away for FDN and BLB prereleases, but we were at maybe 60-65% capacity Friday.

It's a great, well thought out post. But I don't think it matters. I think we're too far lost as a society. The people who need to read this either won't, or if they do, they lack the ability to feel empathy, and instead will only be left offended.

Maybe I'm just a doomer but I've given up hope.

Archie had to get up early to go to the vet this morning, so now we're just chilling watching @basicmountain.bsky.social whip some ass at @scgcon.bsky.social. Go Murktide

That's a very handsome color

Finally got around to watching this. It was reminiscent of the bad guy's plan from Space Jam. Prof paraded out an old pro to get smacked down by the new generation.

The bar for virality (pun intended) during the pandemic was incredibly low.

Yeah, it's been a minute since Foundations. It's been nice to actually get to settle into a format for a second.

Thanks, you too!

Man, I started buying the cards for Pixie like a month ago when Fireshoes first put a spotlight on it, and I still haven't gotten all of them. Haven't even gotten to play the deck before it hit max hater status.

Archie's been my couch buddy while I've been sick the last few days

If I try to look up information for a business, and they have a Facebook profile instead of a website.. I decide I no longer want to visit that business.

Driving tests need to be significantly harder to pass

The one you did for Bloomburrow I think is singlehandedly responsible for giving standard a Kickstart. I've heard so many people talk about how incredible it is.

I went to the Detroit Auto Show today so I can help on the car front. I skipped Standard to go, so no cards for me, however.

FNM tonight, Detroit Auto Show tomorrow, and hockey game Sunday. Busy weekend.

Archie encapsulates my Friday mood pretty well here. I didn't want to get out of bed either, bud.

I have Space Ho's from the DangerDoom album is something I have on in constant rotation

These are great boxes, and my favorite as far as this style goes. Is there any hope of an 80 card sized one in the future? I can't even squeeze a single sleeved 75 card deck in one of the 50s. I'd love one that held my double sleeved standard deck+Sideboard

Core-Set 2013. That was one of the first times I tried MTG. I had a deck builder's tool kit and played a bunch of kitchen table magic with some friends and my little sister before giving it up until I genuinely got into the hobby around '21.

This was a great episode BTW.

It's tough! Takes a lot of trial and error, but ultimately it ends up looking way better than one that isn't self-tie

Good job!

There is so much graveyard hate in this format. I've actually considered running it in UW Oculus to save the yard from Rest in Peace, or to even save myself from decking.

Nostalgia is unfairly maligned. Until there's a future we should be able to listen to nineties rock guilt free

Well uh, birds didn't fly too well.
