    General Fight Club

    O: what! That's one of my favorite arts. I love the concept! Re: Those white 5-drops: I run Cloudgoat Ranger. People play it, unlike Scion of Vitu-Ghazi which nobody ever took. I don't find it gums up the field much, it usually goes on offence right away.

    General Flat Power level vs. Less Flat Power Level

    There was this one time I played BW and lost both games to Sword of Light and Shadow. After that I cut the swords. Now that all the decks I draft are 4 or 5 color Ion Storm monstrosities I suppose protection from two colors isn't what it used to be. edit: morphs

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    Still doesn't seem good. Why not a 3/4? I always liked Steel Golem.

    I will admit, there are some great chains. Chipotle is delicious. I tried In-N-Out in California last year and that was great. Nandos is nostalgic for me and my friends. All these places are cheap, too, and that's important. Re: drunk food. Oh man, London is filled with shitty fried chicken...

    Card/Deck What mana sinks are you running in your cubes?

    How's this card been? I'm interested. There's a theoretical control deck in my cube that wants Ion Storm and I thought Contagion Clasp could be a good fit, but it could also be very slow.

    Am I just a massive hipster if I avoid any chains at all? I really hate that most of the cafes and restaurants are chains everywhere you go, that you've already seen everywhere else. I know that they're still plenty of independent places, but we don't need this much homogenisation. It gets real...

    I left him a comment and invited him. I wonder what he'll say, maybe he's been here and thinks we're dweebs.

    Andy's articles have always been very good. Very open-minded and his aims with his cube have always been to create an excellent draft format.

    Nah, nobody knows what to call black people and everybody's just fed up with thinking about it. The ugly parts of the internet are even softening the N word a bit, but still not really.

    General Balancing gold levels in a makeshift cube

    I think there's plenty of fun to be had in mindless magic. If I didn't play so terribly online and just wish I was sitting around playing with my friends I would cube on mtgo.

    riptidelab.com/utilitylanddraft now does things! All kinds of things! Pick cards! Unpick cards! Watch cards disappear inexplicably! Consume networks with your incessant gets and posts! It's as buggy as MTGO! Jump on and let me know what weird things you observe. The weirder the better, then we...

    What are the downsides to external hosting? I use it for everything on my site because I have such limited disk space. I use it heavily here: jamesstevenson.co.nf/exquisitecorpse (just showing off that site, I like it). I use imgur to host images, and it has a very useful api. Looks like the api...

    General Balancing gold levels in a makeshift cube

    You've always been a shining paragon of ripping the shit of anything you can; looking at your cube list is a nice reminder that we're all human.

    General Fight Club

    Hey there was that one time that French guy won a pro tour or something with a 61 card deck. It happens. It's all just a bunch of statistics that I for one am ill equipped to work out, so I'm open to the possibility of running 41+ cards. Sometimes 23 spells and 18 lands feels right.
