Honestly if I say dumb shit I'm fine with that, that's constructive.

Just wait til you have to spend hours editing down a five minute video of you rambling about some dumb cube topic.

But I know what you mean, back when I did standup I couldn't force myself to listen to my sets. It's made worse by the fact that I have a lisp that I myself don't hear when I'm speaking, but it's in the recording sure enough.

I know I have a high voice. People sometimes think they're talking to a female when I pick up the phone.

I love hearing my own voice! But I know most people don't

@James Stevenson tracked down the chocolate from my video:



In other news I've been sick and had throat pain for the last week+ now, and since I'm trying to speak as little as possible the Chris Taylor podcast will be the only video posted this week.

Wishing you "beterschap"! Hope it's not Covid

Volgens een zelftest heb ik geen Covid.

Glad to hear that! Depending on the kind of self test used, they can be less than 100% reliable though, I heard, so be sure to get yourself checked if you notice loss of taste or get short of breath! #wellmeantadvicethatyouprobablyalreadyknow

 

[Rusje]

Get well soon!

@Chris Taylor somebody called out your formatting in the comments: https://www.reddit.com/r/mtgcube/comments/n5e1iv/riptide_podcast_cubing_with_custom_cards/?sort=top

 

[Chris Taylor]

Interesting

 

[Onderzeeboot]

I think there are multiple cards in your cube that could be brushed up a bit. I noticed a few minor errors here and there during the stream, but I figured your crowd didn't care too much or they would already have pointed them out

 

[Jason Waddell]

I thought 'died' looked weird there but I also understood perfectly what was intended.

 

[Chris Taylor]

Someone's raised a good point: Emissary of Grudges uses the "play this ability only once" templating I used for one of my wastelands.

 

[Jason Waddell]

I was finally recovering from being sick, and now our baby is sick again. It's definitely put a damper on the content stream.

This weekend I'll be podcasting with @landofMordor, and for your more immediate fix, we have this 7-Point Highlander match from @Dom Harvey:

 

[Jason Waddell]

I'm just here to meet my weekly quota:

 

[Zoss]

Dammit, don't convince me to spend money on fetches, Jason.

 

[Onderzeeboot]

Perfect timing too with MH2 on the horizon (ba dum tss)!

 

[Chris Taylor]

Dammit, don't convince me to spend money on fetches, Jason.

Do not spend money on fetches.

 

[Zoss]

Chris, it's not the cards I'm buying, it's that new-card smell. MPC can't replicate that, so it's dead to me.

(In all honestly, MPC is a beautiful thing and saves me a lot.)

 

[Chris Taylor]

Look, MPC, your printer, sharpie on a bad river, sharpie on an evolving wilds, eyeliner on a plains, do what you have to do, I don't care how you do it

Is the improvement in gameplay worth..$1500?

 

[blacksmithy]

sharpie on an evolving wilds,

this guy knows what’s up

 

[Dom Harvey]

as long as Terramorphic Expanse remains unsullied

 

[Zoss]

Chris, I'm agreeing with you! Without MPC, I'd be super broke.

I never ordered from MPC, but I'm getting in the world of Bootleg MTG lately. Got a ton of fake foil cards for my cube and for possible commander decks, like the fetches from the image below, and although they do look super fake when you take your time inspecting them, they look neat enough if you have a cube full of foils. Plus, they don't pringle up like most foils nowadays
