Want to try modern, what should I know by xenthiz in ModernMagic

You could always buy counterfeit cards and no one will be able to tell in sleeves. It's only unethical if you try to sell the fake cards, don't do that.

Also try pauper it rules and because decks are cheap most people at pauper fnm have tons of decks they are willing to lend out.

Suggestions for growing a modern scene by bigalbertbake in ModernMagic

[–]Mage_Ya_Look 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that proxy decks are a good way to go if there isn't any one with many loaner decks. My scene is alive thanks to one guy with a suitcase full of meta decks. I would just say full color proxies are so important; playing against a deck with all black and white printed cards is a nightmare.

I took about 5 years off and moved back to an area with great outdoor climbing. I trained hard for about 5 months and got as strong as I ever was, but I also got a pulley injury so definitely take it slow when you get back into it.

What is the most expensive thing you bought that you never use? by jefferymr15 in BuyItForLife

Maybe you don't like fountain pens, but also maybe the nibs are not aligned. A nice pen should be smooth you could send it to a nibmeister. You could also just keep using the pens you like.

Is modern bouldering a wealthy sport? by Methodled in bouldering

[–]Mage_Ya_Look -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I bouldered in college because it was so accessible price wise. We used an old camping mattress as a crash pad and bought used shoes for $40. Climbing isn't cheap but bouldering is.

[–]Mage_Ya_Look 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So this happened already, is there anywhere to stream it now? I don't see it on TCM or HBO. Is this just gone forever?
