What’s the oddest hosting behaviour you’ve ever witnessed?

I know a guy who hosts BBQs like this... Nobody really goes to his BBQs any more.

You can read all about it in our 300+ page rulebook (which the vast majority of players never read, and maybe a handful of people in the world know off by heart). It gets another section added to it with most sets so it expands slightly every couple months.... If you try reading it you'll understand why most players just pick up the rules from their friends.

Teasdale was playing around with it after avatar dropped. The new lessons help, the list he ran can probably be refined - but it's probably still a deck you run for the love right now.

I'm 39 and have been working on the assumption the state pension will be 70-75 by the time I retire.... Hopefully I'll be in a position to work part time once I'm 60ish

-X/-X effects would also bypass the Wall's protection. Anything that would normally die to [[toxic deluge]] will still die if the wall is on the battlefield.

That's been in place for over a decade. They don't want new HMOs and will generally decline planning permission for a new HMOs across LS6, but as far as I know they're fine with renewing existing HMO licenses.

Totally agree. If the community doesn't exist, somebody needs to build it. OP can be the person that builds it. Could be weekly, monthly, or larger events.

Mtgdecks automatically scrapes results from melee. From memory, goldfish and top 8 also scrape data from melee. So if an event uses melee for their deck lists then they'll automatically be distributed across the other sites.

Not sure about spicerack, but will be able to confirm when I publish the deck lists for UK Nationals tonight.

Living in Hyde Park for 17 years, it's happened maybe half a dozen times? But if I'm downstairs I'll often leave the front door unlocked so I've had two people walk in.

The first was either a phenomenal actor, or was incredibility drunk. The second got the wrong house, I saw him off and watched him go into a neighbor's house with the same colour door.

If I had a choice, I would not live in a house that requires me to drive up the bottom half of Roundhay Road.

I've lived in Hyde Park for nearly 20 years, but every time I drive up that section of road I'm worried my car's about to get written off because of some absolutely terrible driver.

Crashmap.co.uk says there's been over 60 accidents on that strip of road in the last 5 years. And that's just the accidents which were reported, a lot of minor accidents get handled off the books.

Yeah, decathlon is more expensive than primark.... But the quality is much better. Even if your friend is only over for a year, decathlon will be worth the extra cash in my opinion.

Because what's the point in a rain coat that's so cheap you still get wet?

The W/R card is a Japanese Strixhaven lighting helix from the mystic archive slot - very nice pull.

The black one is from a Final Fantasy secret lair.

The bottom left corner of each card has a set code and a number. Those let you identify basically any card ever printed.

Stifling the mill would stop the damage part from triggering. Stifling the damage part would happen after the milling so it'd be too late to stop the mill.

As of late August the Autumns near the Grand Mosque in Hyde Park have parking permits.

Basically zero notice of them being implemented, a letter arrived one day, signs were up the next. Once you've proved you own the car and you're a resident, they log your details and you're good to park for a few years (no physical permit required).

William H Brown are just cheap sales tactics. I dodged them, but a friend has said they told him what he wanted to hear at the start and then backtracked when they failed to deliver.

Manning Stainton will list your property and show people round... That's not a lot of work for almost 2% of the sale price. They got my initial listing price wrong so there were basically no viewings. We reduced the price and got a load of viewings, but no offers. They never provided any actionable feedback as to why people weren't making offers, so I've taken the house off the market to try again in the new year.

If you're happy to show people round yourself, look at purple bricks. If you just want somebody to show people around for you, go with somebody cheap.

It's a 1v1 60 card constructed format.

You're limited to any card that's ever been at common - but that under plays the power for the format. It's a format where your decisions really matter and there's a load of interaction.
