    The OkCupid Experience

    Out of curiosity I sent out my first Tinder message and got a reply. I really don't know what the cultural expectations are with Tinder or what the rhythm of messaging should feel like. It feels strange. Anybody care to offer a testimonial?

    General 'walkers and "everything costs 4"

    I mean, let's be real, even in a tight mana-constrained cube Bolt isn't really irreplaceable. The number of games you're going to lose by casting Searing Spear instead is non-zero but non-big number either. Koth drops to the table and just wrecks players. I play him in 3 color decks. My 3-0...

    General 'walkers and "everything costs 4"

    I'm going to hijack this with a thought I've had lately. In another thread (who cares which one) you guys were talking about Lightning Bolt being the most powerful red card, but, given the option, I am picking Koth over Bolt every time. Koth slams on the table and just wins games. Are people...

    I hate everything you like

    I am generally a fan of all things eSport and also have no interest in eSport. I even tried to like it. Hard. As in, watched 8 hours of The International 2 and did my best to enthusiastically get into it. But it's just not there. They seem like terrible spectator experiences.

    What non-Magic shit are you up to?

    Yeah, I have a few old MLG articles that I whore out over and over. http://www.majorleaguegaming.com/news/3-keys-to-a-great-competitive-game

    I'm going to need a translation and a justification for some of these because it feels like you're spouting some unjustified bullshit for giggles.

    General CFB Store Credit Contest Ideas

    Store credit can only be given in $25 increments. But I already wrote that article.

    Shriekmaw? Bloodgift Demon? The M13 demon that you have to sacrifice things to keep alive?

    General CBS

    Uh, it's just a constructed article, but I don't know if it's good enough to go elsewhere. We'll see.

    How big does X have to be before Grey Merchant is not terrible? Is it pulling more design weight than another 5-drop in that slot?

    Eric says you do recruiting. We can set up an incentive program. Every X productive members you bring in, you get a Chipotle burrito.

    CML, Dom, which of these are you actually running?

    What non-Magic shit are you up to?

    If you read them when you were 12 and have the benefit of nostalgia, yes. I had a friend read them fresh as a 30-something and he wasn't so wild about them. But he also hates LSV so take his opinion with a mountain of salt.

    I hate everything you like

    I think we have to keep classifying it as a cube community until we get our first non-cubing registrant. But the fact that we have a "General Discussion" subforum increases the likelihood of that tremendously. Putting the likelihood at "still tremendously unlikely".

    The Book Thread

    Okay, well, this description just sold me on not liking Pratchett. I suspected I didn't from Good Omens but now I know it's not for me.

    I hate everything you like

    My best friend over here is some Dutch guy who is totally not a part of the Magic community over here in Belgium. Like, totally disjointed. 0 mutual friends on Facebook. But he does have a cube, and he had found me because I posted that I had a cube on MTGS some time ago, which I had forgotten...

    General Color matters / devotion

    Ugh, I am super lazy. Can somebody use the CI tags and post in here the devotion cards that are actually cubable? That may help me conceptualize.

    General Color matters / devotion

    Yeah, what I am thinking is something along the lines of an influx of hybrid cards in one color, combined with a couple really strong anchor cards that actually have the word Devotion printed on them. Then we can open up a new deck archetype relatively compactly, and if nobody is in it, then...
