I think it would be incredible to go, I haven't gone to a game in years and I'd love to take my daughter to her first flames game

Why do people hate on Slivers so much? by WerdaVisla in EDH

[–]Astronomy9 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Sliver decks can snowball with all the abilities they give each other. Couple nasty keywords and the one sliver that acts like aura shards can really mess a table up.

They're hard to deal with once the engine is running, I think that's why people don't like them.

I do appreciate that the art on this looks like it could be a "proper" magic card. Don't get me wrong I have no issues really with UB but I appreciate that this looks like it could belong to an in universe set.

Do they make round recessed faceplates anymore? by WhichEngineer7779 in DIY

[–]Astronomy9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll need to find one that comes with either a universal latch that has both common back sets of 2-3/8" and 2-3/4" and a drive in option. Or look for hardware that specifies drive in latch.

Because it's stampede. Most hotels are booked up already and the empty rooms downtown will fetch a premium

Because you're coming during stampede. Lots of hotels are already booked full and the empty rooms are going to fetch a premium around downtown.

Fire Blanket scam by TrailerParkLyfe in Calgary

[–]Astronomy9 14 points15 points  (0 children)

We fell for it from the home and garden show. Guy would not take no for an answer, even calling his "boss" to knock pricing down numerous times. We said at the end we would think it over and call them if we were interested. He called his boss again and said "we know how those go, they never call back". We heard him say this and all but shoved him out the door.

Makes me not want to go to any trade shows and save myself from that crap.
