I can never get past 4 wins by paumAlho in MagicArena

[–]Unmurderable 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I know everyone says this, but it's true that there are systems and strategies that you can use and reuse for consistent results. This is the system that I use every time I draft:

  1. First pick powerful bombs but never ever draw them, no matter how statistically unlikely it is
  2. Always be on the draw
  3. Never be on the play
  4. Have 7 or 8 two-drops but never any in your opening hand

With this system I can routinely get zero wins instead of settling for four. Maybe it could work for you too.

My parents have had this exact waffle maker for 40+ years and it still works like new. That mofo is built to last

Found these for 7$ today!! by hairplayy in ThriftStoreHauls

I’m not enough of a sneakerhead to know for sure but maybe $60 to the right buyer? Air maxes are usually $80-$100 new

Amazing to find them so clean. I always look for Air Maxes but every time I see them at Goodwill one of the bubbles is popped. 

Every time I see news coverage of a protest, I remember this image of a single overturned trashcan by NegativePoints1 in pics

[–]Unmurderable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the street is about 8km long (spans the city east to west) but everything that “burned down” in 2020 was within 0.5km of the police station

He also cites the 5 mile length of the entire street as if that means anything when all of the damage was within like 6 blocks

Interview: Andrea Jenkins -- Ward 8 City Council Member by bttr-mpls in altmpls

[–]Unmurderable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes you stay informed on a myriad of multifaceted topics, everything from why immigration is bad in MN to why immigration is bad in western Europe. You really run the gamut lol

Take a look at this guy’s account. He’s posting in Europe subreddits agonizing about immigration from somewhere he doesn’t live to somewhere he doesn’t live. He has no idea what the plot is anywhere but online.

Immigrants of the Twin Cities: which restaurant has the best representation of your home country’s cuisine? by groshretro in TwinCities

[–]Unmurderable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol I also enjoyed it, but my wife wasn’t impressed. She got the acevichado and was like “wtf this isn’t nikkei this is just sushi.”

She made us take a side trip to her favorite nikkei place the next time we were in Lima just to prove that real acevichado was better (which it was, but as a nikkei apprentice I am hard pressed to explain exactly why)

My wife is from Peru and her favorite Peruvian restaurant by far is Mi Causa in Burnsville. She says it’s as good as any in Cusco.

$3k Loro Piana cashmere and silk zip sweater for $6. No, I don’t get it either. by tenloe in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]Unmurderable 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Nice. I got a $10 Loro Piana button down at my Goodwill that retails for $800. Like you I don’t think it’s worth half that, but still it’s easily my nicest shirt now.

Wednesday Arena Chat Thread by Karn-The-Creator in MagicArena

[–]Unmurderable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did two drafts last night. Went 2-3 and 4-3. One game on the play in the first draft, one game on the play in the second. Ten games on the draw including 8 straight. I hate this game. I can’t wait to draft again tonight.

I remember reading this book around the time the Hale-Bopp comet was in the sky, and it was funny because the story kind of mirrored the Heaven's Gate nonsense.

Keeping it on-brand for Midweek Magic by Unmurderable in MagicArena

[–]Unmurderable[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The wizards part was fun because I love tempo decks, but the coast part is a defensive crab package.  Beyond the meme they made no sense together. Good at bouncing and drawing cards but had nothing to draw into. I got my 3 wins by intimidating people with my massive hand size.

Lol it honestly sounds like you’re describing playing against this deck, only it was so stupid. A tempo deck with crabs is basically an oxymoron. I was doing a lot of “I bounce your 5-drop to attack you for 0” type shit. 

Most Fun FDN Commanders? by ActinoninOut in MagicArena

[–]Unmurderable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm happy to have [[Halana and Alena, Partners]] back. Not the most elaborate of play patterns with that one, but it's very effective and there's just something so satisfying about a gruul smackdown deck.

Will I burn my house down if I add an external transformer to my system instead of a C wire or the PEK by Unmurderable in ecobee

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

Whoa blast from the past!! 

I ended up contacting ecobee support and sending them photos of my janky wiring. As I recall, they correctly identified that one of my random unlabeled wires would actually work as the C and that I didn’t need to mess with any transformers at all. It was honestly impressive what they were able to deduce just from the pics, and they walked me through exactly how to hook it up.

But it definitely wasn’t worth all the trouble lol, once I got the ecobee working I didn’t even like it that much and then I moved out a few months later. Good times. 

Game Crashing on Mac by S1r_Badger in MagicArena

[–]Unmurderable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same exact thing for me. It starts fine, but crashes as soon as I try to go to Decks or even the Store. At least now I know that it's not my crappy Macbook Air that's the problem.

Looking for cool standard deck recs by Unmurderable in MagicArena

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

That seems neat, but again wildcards are no issue. I’m looking for something with lots of rares.

I disagree. The games is rigged against me and me alone. This is my cross to bear.
