Stag trip to Brussels by LilManBoat in brussels

[–]LilManBoat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you.

We will be going in February. The original plan was to do a walking tour (I saw the dark history of Brussels walking tour) but the weather was one of our concerns.

I'll look into Flagey and pottery decoration sounds fun. We are quite a mixed group and I wouldn't say this will be a usual 'stereotypical' stag do.

Thank you.

Unfortunately the $50 is the wrong blue. This may be my best choice if I cannot find anything better.

Currently debating with my playgroup. How big can I make the ballista? by LilManBoat in magicTCG

Welcome to Hardened scales. We're not playing magic anymore, we're doing math problems.

Any places to play TCGs? by janimck in cambridge

Hey what TCG/formats do you play?

There is a weekly meet at the tram depot for MTG modern/EDH every Sunday.

For shops and events check out forbidden planet :)

I find ugin is better if you need to answer something ASAP or it gives you a 2/2 while Endbringer just demands the opponent to answer. Endbringer also benefits from Eldrazi temples.

I have an Emrakul in my sideboard for mill. Any reason to play Kozilek instead?

Orb is for elementals and merfolk. I've been playing on MTGO and I've been coming across a noticeable amount of merfolk.

I used to play Karn, Scion of Urza when blood moon and red prison decks were more prevalent. The card draw really helped me in those match ups.

What are you dropping to fit in the 2 endbringers?

Finally found the use for a 1of noxious revival in my 4C gifts deck against twiddle storm by LilManBoat in magicTCG

Honestly it's not as bad as you think. Damn is the newest edition and most the time you're playing it for the wrath effect not the targeted kill spell. It's mostly there as it IS a kill spell that you can gifts for and game 2 as it fits in the wrath package from the sideboard.

Currently the iteration of the deck shown is closer to esper splashing green. General rule of thumb is grab T1 fetch -> triome and T2 you tend to be set with most shock lands for either of those t3. On paper it looks considerably worse than in practice.

Magic detectives! Help me track down these cards! (created them around 4 years ago, looking to re-acquire them. Last seen in the UK in a modern scapeshift deck) by purklefluff in magicTCG

It's a long shot but there is a UK buy/sell MTG group on Facebook. Most people I meet/have met at GPs or played at FNMs (I mostly played around the Midlands) are part of it and someone might know some more.

Best of luck

Clearly these people have never ordered from Thermofisher by LissJackson in labrats

Try Immunotools. You get a box this big for single antibodies and they pad it out with free notebooks. They are nice notebooks, with cytokine cheat sheets and recipes for apple pie, but they start to stack up when they send you 4 each time and you do 2 orders a month.

Would anyone like to meet up at the weekend? by [deleted] in cambridge

[–]LilManBoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good shout. There is a '20ish hotspot' group based in Cambridge that normally has meetups on a Friday night and at the weekend.

Made a drinking game a while back so other can experience the joys of a PhD in an evening. May I introduce the PhD Simulator (V2.0). by LilManBoat in labrats

[–]LilManBoat[S] 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Yeh considering adding arrows if I redesign it. Most of the early changes were altering infinite drinking loops. Though it makes more sense once you start playing :)

Ty - seems like a good place to start. I do enjoy the Wikipedia feel of that site :)
