qwksndmonster Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 I went to a friday night magic thing last weekend and it was followed by a midnight tournament with new cards that were coming out. It was my first of such events (my girlfriend has been obsessed with magic for the last ~2 months or so) and I won a bunch. Went 3-2 in constructed (her little bro made me a deck) and 5-1 in limited where you make your own deck with packs you just opened. I would've let that go if this thread was more on track but here's my offering to the board: I'm a ###### nerd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty loose, but it was regulated since there were prizes. I got to the "championship" but the other guy got me disqualified before we got going because I had different color sleeves on my cards which wasn't allowed... Even though nobody else had a problem with it. And I'm not even smart enough to think to use different sleeves for different cards to cheat.

phil_soisson Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) I see what you're saying. I'm just saying that baiting somebody doesn't mean they took the bait. Poor wording choice on the fly possibly, but his quotes make it clear that he isn't admitting that they'll take a tank philosophy. I actually think both interpretations could be correct: I didn't misquote anybody. My lead in to the quote wasn't a quote. They were baiting him into admitting that his plan is tanking. He didn't bite. The quotes are his responses. I think your exact quote was "Basically, they baited him into admitting...", in which case, it seems to me that saying "He didn't bite" would constitute a contradiction. There's a subtle difference between "baited" and "were baiting". Where the former is a done deal, the latter may allow for some wiggle. If you were a prosecutor and you presented that statement as an evidentiary declaration, and I sat on the jury, I'd have to vote to acquit because it doesn't fit.

REEEEALLY do not want to Wow, pretty telling right there I think: that he'd leave off what has been clearly perceived in that organization as the next cornerstone is shocking. Can you imagine what would happen to this place if he got rid of Myers? I'm not sure how I'd feel about it; I really like Myers, I think he's been getting back to form and the it would be a major kick to the shaft if he ended up taking the same career path as Chara. So, what does everyone think Myers would fetch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koomkie Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 seems like a step backwards. obviously who knows what we could get if he continues to play the way he has been. but i would rather keep on to that asset Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what that does to a guy like Myers when he hears it. I wonder if he was serious when he said, "8 teams in on Miller, you'll probably cut that to 4."
