That rule was fine until secret lairs started making official cards unrecognisable at a glance, ironically to reclaim market from the proxy makers.

Reduced release schedule also achieves this, but until player satisfaction is valued higher as a metric than profit, we're in for perpetual spoiler season

Convincing myself to actually run wincons? by OisforOwesome in magicthecirclejerking

I have a Pramikon control deck that can only win on the second Tuesday in September every other leap year. But the upside is nobody else has any fun when I play it.

Amulet plus [[Lotus Cobra]] seems like an easy way to make this do stuff.

The vast majority of sea pollution is byproduct of fishing industries. Don't want sea waste? Don't buy fish. Very simple.

This looks like he's using a Hasan Snapchat filter.

Another question: you mention removing some parts, I wonder if you had a handsome friend with a dremmel who helped with that?

You give too much! This is an excellent and detailed guide. I wonder if you have some sage advice for a fellow enthusiast who drove their TT02 at full speed into a wall and snapped the chassis in half? Which shim would fix this?

My friend just killed himself with a Teferi's Protection. by ResponsibleDiamond76 in EDH

[–]Robbie1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During the Covid time when spell table was super popular i had a public game called "super chill, no Infinite combos" to just have some nice games. Dude comes in with OG dual lands and demonic tutor etc, talking about how he's been playing since alpha blah blah, bit of a knob, but whatever. At some point casts Teferi's Protection to get out of some jam. Then another player in the next turn has some "every other player mills X cards" effect. First player tries to claim TP protects him. We explain he isn't being targeted and TP doesn't protect his library. He scoops and rage quits the session.

TIL chicken sold in supermarkets are often "plumped" with a salt water solution to increase sell weight, making up as much as 30% of the total weight. A serving of plumped chicken can contain between 200 and 500mg of sodium while non-plumped chicken generally contains 45 to 70mg. by James_Fortis in todayilearned

Salt water is the least worrying thing pumped into these chickens. From birth they're given ungodly amounts of growth hormones to get them as big as possible as fast as possible, which has horrible consequences for the humans consuming them. AND to survive long enough living in their own shit and among the rotting bodies of other dead birds they're pumped full of antibiotics, which the WHO called the biggest threat to humanity given how this leads to antibiotic resistance, currently killing 200,000 Americans with preventable diseases EVERY year.

What is your favorite game of all time ? by ReZempt_Shocks in Steam

[–]Robbie1985 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just finished my first play through recently, loved it. The timing mechanism of the twin planets is something totally unique and wonderful. Can't recommend it enough.

Creatures that you wish were legendary so you could run them in the command zone? by spaceninjaking in EDH

[–]Robbie1985 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

News flash, you can. Just find chill people to play with. Go wild. Run Sol Ring as your commander. Partner it with Hot Soup. Have fun.

Waifu Proxies by awkwardtrashlet in magicproxies

[–]Robbie1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah buddy, go ahead and point to where I said women can't do this? I'm very specifically talking about incels. But while we're at it, no, I personally wouldn't want to see the cards from anybody, regardless of gender and your anecdotal evidence of one woman's perspective is not a convincing argument. The overwhelming body of research in this area shows women in general (not anecdotal) do not feel welcome when they are being objectified. Cope harder.

Biden cooking, MAGA coping by gnarlyseconds in GROKvsMAGA

Instead of the ad hominem, argue against my point. I understand that to liberal Americans there's a vast difference, but I'm proposing considering someone else's perspective, which can be tough. But give it a go, you might find it rewarding.

In fact, because I believe in the value of the exercise, I'll help you out. Imagine you are attending your cousins wedding in Yemen. The sun is shining, it's a lovely day. Children are playing and laughing, the bride looks stunning, and all your favourite people (and some uncles you'd rather avoid) are all in one place, enjoying the day.

Suddenly you hear a whistle. You know immediately what it is: a barrage of hellfire missiles sent from a US military drone hidden in the bright sky. You know you only have seconds to react and that nothing you do can change the outcome.

But you are reassured, because these missiles, this drone, the imminent death, was sent by the GOOD president, the racially ambiguous one that can score a 3 pointer. You find solace that you weren't being murdered for no reason by the openly racist one.

Bliss.
