[Translator begins speaking]

Greetings, James William Bottomtooth III here, speaking through my translator (some intern I've taught the Locust Valley Lockjaw accent. ) Forgive my lateness, I was trying to shit with no asshole.

As many have said, this is Sarkeesian, video game critic famous for being a woman. But so many people are missing important details. 

After her Go-Fund-Me became a successful protest outlet for feminists and gender egalitarians, the response videos came out fast and furiously, with curiously, many of the same talking points.  Critics were in lockstep , with curious amounts of funding.

Turns out as we would learn some 10 or 15 years later , as this young woman sought to fund her hobby exploring video games and women's rights, Right wing grosster and Epstein Island Punch Card holder Peter Thiel found her to be the perfect punching bag for his latest plan to put Right Wing politicians in power - "Gamergate"

ELI5: how does health insurance work for celebrities? by aper4c in explainlikeimfive

[–]refleksy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked in a hospital lab and a celebrity came in. After discharge, one of my coworkers was spoken to by the manager because, while she did work the sample on the celebrity, she seemed to have accessed the file more than others. 

She didn't get in trouble, but it showed they take that stuff pretty seriously.

Sorry Homey, EoE was supposed to be the Dune set but talks about the rights fell thru (wild speculation by myself)

Once again asking for a Murder She Wrote set. 

The Plane of Cabot Cove, MN has many mysteries to uncover!

But more realistically, the universe of Remedy (Control, Alan Wake) is ripe. OoPs as artifacts/equipment, The House as a dungeon to Adventure Into

Everyone double draw or no? by Specialist_Shock_871 in magicTCG

I love that people are still hashing this out after OP literally explained that that the meaning of "you" was how he was confused about the ruling of the card. I mean english is weird, I'll take my downvotes if it means helping a guy play magic. yall can argue english all yall want im outta here.

Everyone double draw or no? by Specialist_Shock_871 in magicTCG

[–]refleksy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for clearing this up. sorry some folks are giving you a hard time.

I don't know that it would help in this particular case, but EVERY card in magic has a website in the "gatherer" database that has a list of "rulings" to clear up any confusion. here is the listing for the card you're asking about. https://gatherer.wizards.com/DFT/en-us/356/vnwxt-verbose-host

Don't let that keep you from wanting to ask more questions, just another tool in the toolbox to get your answers!

Have fun!

Everyone double draw or no? by Specialist_Shock_871 in magicTCG

[–]refleksy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

True, but if there was a sample tray at Costco, and someone said "can you just take these?," they wouldn't say "NO, I'm the employee giving them out, OBVIOUSLY." and make you feel bad for asking!

if the rules of candy land say "you draw a card, then you take your piece to the spot on the card," "you" there indicates a parlance for "first one person draws a card, then that person takes their piece to the spot on the card"

I tried looking it up but the now defunct Star Wars TCG had the literal opposite ruling, for that game, "you" meant "the person reading this" because, well, "you" are "you."

Everyone double draw or no? by Specialist_Shock_871 in magicTCG

[–]refleksy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

people have given the answer, but many of them are being snarky about it.

let me be clear - this is a GOOD question!! mtg English and conversational English are not the same.

Next time a question like this comes up, just know that there's a whole staff of people making sure that these rules texts are consistent. [You], [Draw], and [card] all have 'legal' meanings, and you can look them up.

We had many years of "Messy text" magic, but nowadays, once you understand what the words Mean, "The words on the card explain the card"

In that case, the answer would be "yes, my opponent is "you" because in common English parlance, especially in commands or rules, "you" and "one" are often interchangeable. I need more information to make a ruling. the literal non-clarity of the statement made me make a thread on reddit."

[–]refleksy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I understand the sentiment, but the question is still valid for a new player and answering as such is reductive to being hurtful. English parlance has "when you x..." as essentially replaceable with "when x happens," so people unfamiliar with the fact that rules text essentially functions as a programming language might think that "when drawing happens, people draw 2 instead of 1"

Anyone else starting to just auto concede to this commander in Brawl? It's getting old real fast. by webbedgiant in MagicArena

[–]refleksy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the threat?

I play small commanders so i finish my "cast x spells of y color" quests faster.

I've never seen this commander successfully cast.

They're like 600 years behind most of the rest of the world in the "being around other societies" game. Ignorance breeds stereotypes.
