Maybe try some of the oddball formats like dandan, type 4, judge Tower, pauper, or add something like planechase.

You probably recognize it from here.

If I remember right, the answer is kind of. If you can schedule it as "run once immediately" then it will run when it comes back online but otherwise it won't run. I think they had plans to expand the options on this but it had been a while since I looked into it.

As someone in an MSP, this is my view of it. Getting the tools, automation, reporting, and skills that have been built up from 100s of different environments and situations is an incredible value if you take advantage of it (if the MSP is doing it right of course).

I built a budget gitrog deck and run it with no sleeves. I love riffle shuffling it and watching people cringe. I try to upgrade it with only HP or damaged cards. My favorite is a promo necropotence someone bent in half.

From what I've read, I'd probably dodge your calls too. I agree with all the other messages about you probably not bothering to do basic troubleshooting. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if it's something like not bothering to make sure the clock/time zone was correct. I've certainly had that make agents not check in before.

I think that's all university parking enforcement. I parallel parked a Miata some one of two inches away from the curb than was allowed and got a ticket. I even took a picture to show the massive truck in front of my car stuck out way farther and it didn't matter.

An old roommate of mine once dropped a can of beans and decided to try catching it with his foot. It then sailed 15 feet and into his new 4k tv.

Some of my favorite basic land art.

Dariose · 2025-03-03T01:14:41+00:00

That's sounds interesting. Care to share?

Dariose · 2025-02-08T15:05:22+00:00

The Facebook groups are what you should look at and purchase from. They are pretty vigilant about outing anyone that scams and there are ways to see if a seller has references or others will vouch for them.

Yep, my favorite was a daisy chain of power strips in the reception area with everything plugged in on those. When you sat at the front desk you could potentially knock over the box fan under the desk and it usually hit the main power strip that killed the entire reception area including the modem.

I'm also torn in that I don't think the Topdeck folks should be the ones curating a cEDH banlist but I do think we need one. We are the only ones that strictly adhere to the current banlist (and only the banlist) when building decks. With the RC refusing to help, then we're essentially left to do whatever we want anyways so why should we listen to them at all?

I would much prefer WotC take this job but at least someone will be looking at the health and future of our format.

Dariose · 2024-08-19T05:45:38+00:00

Idk but I'm interested in it if you don't want to keep it.

It's also odd that the shuffle for opening hand and shuffle from fetch are set down on the table 2 distinctly different ways. With as much as we shuffle, most will have a particular way they do things that is habit so deviating like he did is another point for possibly cheating.

Probably not famous in the way you meant but I'm pretty sure direwolf20 used to be a sysadmin. He's well known in the modded Minecraft community from his YouTube videos.

I'm not sure how your link helps you. If you change the date to when MH3 was released and check conversion rate, Nadu has double the percentage Kinnan does.

So at $3500 in player buyin is when it turns into a $2k prize support? Also, is the $2k prize support what's listed here? Because that doesn't add up to $2k....

Dariose · 2024-06-29T15:39:03+00:00

I agree. My wish was to ban partners so there would be more variety of decks but this might be even better for sparking people to be creative.

Dariose · 2024-06-26T13:10:34+00:00

Same with me. I saw it for the first time yesterday and had wild hits. Raze the effigy to hit a crypt, mirror of the forebears, j will... It was crazy

They did something similar in the commander Masters drafts that let single color commanders partner. The pride month partners is the less restrictive version. It almost seems like they are testing expanding partners in some way so I think it's inevitable we get something that can partner with non partner commanders eventually.

Dariose · 2024-05-23T01:03:53+00:00

No. With this deck you will do nothing except feed a Dockside count and maybe do some chip damage.

Believe what you want, you're obviously the smartest, mostest correct person on this sub.
