So, I'm having issues doing my taxes.

I have two w-2s, for starters. One from Michigan(where I live) and one from Indiana(where I worked), I guess? And they took Indiana taxes out on me for the majority of the year which I think they shouldn't have done. Also, apparently I'm ineligible for an EIC this year. Bleh.

Kait, I'll remind you about our bet.

Kait: "Brimaz will be a staple for multiple control decks"
Me: "They'll push him into everything but he's not gonna be so good so he'll be cut later"

Didn't watched SCG Opens, how did he performed?

Posted: **Sun Feb 09, 2014 6:33 pm**

he was everywhere

Posted: **Sun Feb 09, 2014 6:35 pm**

well not everywhere but he showed up more than most new rares

10 copies in top 16, 3 copies in top 8

too soon to say if he gets cut, but why would he? control has historically wanted a brimaz type card in the sideboard.

lol I am not worthy either.

Happy berfday stabber!

In other news, mass amounts of water are now falling from the sky. I believe the technical term is, "rainin' like a mothafucka". Having a cup of coffee whilst on the laptop and listening to the rain is on my list of top 5 favorite things.
what are the other four

In no particular order:

Happy birthday stabber.

Played a GPT yesterday for PW points. Was the most pointless GPT ever, there where 20 people, 14 of them including myself have 2/3 byes for next season. Two of the people in top 8 have top 8'd recent GPs this year.

So from a competitive point, the tourney was a shark fest and very fun. Went 2-2 drop after starting out 2-0. It was theros and born of the gods sealed which I'm willing to bet is infinitely better then just theros sealed. turns out that all the cards that deal 1 damage to creatures/players are very good sideboard cards as there are tons of x-1s in the format.

So, I know I've put a self-imposed ban on me making decklists while I take a break, but damn if I don't wanna brew a B/r midrange right now.

I think bant walkers will be fairly popular, and planeswalkers winning games on their own seemed to be a pretty prevalent theme throughout the open. B/r midrange would be a pretty powerful deck with walkers being a thing, since you've got 8 kill spells that'll hit them, and then burn too.

It could kinda be like that B/w midrange that got 2 in the top 8, with dragons instead of vamps, etc, etc, etc.

At the very least, it's a deck that actually sounds like it's be fun to play, which is more then I can say for most anything else I've thought about recently.

But now back to ignoring magic for a bit, and playing muramasa rebirth to completion on my vita

I could always see the Restricted forum. I thought there was some super cool forum I was missing.

Good news. I'll get promotion and 1.5x raise. Apparently I'm pretty damn good at handling angry, english-speaking customers (customer service, second biggest bank in Poland, part of UniCredit group) so they want me in the premium part of the bank.

Yarpus good at dealing with Angry americans? Who would have thought.

It's a conspiracy! There was no super secret cool forum. Nothing behind the curtain, just like the wizard of Oz. In fact, I think we're all munchkins...

Nope. Nothing to see here.

Move along.

Did you just put Australians into the same fold as Americans?

Well, time to climb into the bunker before James goes nuclear.

I am trying to direct my energy towards people who benefit from and appreciate it.

America is awesome because we took Mexican food and made it worse.

One of the guys from my LGS played in that, I think he was playing junk reanimator.

Posted: **Mon Feb 10, 2014 10:28 am**

They kept bringing up the Junk reanimator list but never caught it on camera. I believe they said it made it in the top 16 though but I could be wrong.

Anyone have the link to the Jaya backgrounds?

The one I am looking for is the exploding skeleton (being engulfed in yellow flames) with the text "Destruction is best left to professionals". Despite considerable google-fu I have been unable to find it.

The card you're talking about is Burnout but the flavor text you're talking about belongs to Gorilla Shaman.

Posted: **Mon Feb 10, 2014 11:14 am**

Must have been a custom art then, no wonder I cannot find it again. Damn.
