I decided to take a trip through the past and browse the profiles of old friends, as well as keep up and catch up with those that still post here. I've failed to keep in touch with my LJ friends as I migrated to Facebook a couple years back (hence the fail icon). I'm thinking I might utilize this page again in order to catch up with some of those ( Read more... )

I finally joined Facebook so I could stay in touch with my Grand Rapids M:tG friends. Due to my busy work schedule, I hardly have the time to go to GR anymore to play and hang out with friends. Thus, I bit the bullet and made a profile ( Read more... )

Well, well. The DCI banned list has just been posted, and we've got some new bannings! First, the one that affects me the most, Legacy. Legacy only had one card get banned, but it was a doozy. Mental Misstep, the overpowered FREE (okay, you have to pay two life but who cares?) counterspell that hits anything with a CMC of 1 got the boot. As a ( Read more... )
