Nope. I haven't been on box of tricks since last night, and plan to delete them off my Yahoo in relationship to their oversensitivity. I mean, come on, how is calling someone Ravarshioli an insult?

[I was permabanned and all I got to show for it was .... well, nothing.]
Not so much a stream as a line, or rope. Tweed.
What?
Nothing too fast, slow, or understood. Standing in stands, stranded, strained eyes seek, seeing seething seas of ceaseless waves. Within reach, without hope.
Without thought, rather, hope? I gather. Gartered to a branch as a fire-starter.
Within me. Without fail. Flailing, falling, dropping, rising, finding, piling, smiling.
Lost again, time passes with passing passes passing our ears and minds. Found.
Finally. Or finale. Neither really. Nothing final, no time lost. Waste isn't without consent, constant.
Face further space lined with lace tapestries or spider-webs ebbing forth and back with gusts of wind and corporeal hands tugging at the strands.
Remember strands?
Remember strands.
Standing in the sand
toes wet
covered in dry land and hands eagerly digging for clams.
Sticking to rocks, shells, and crabs I gather, pile with the feathers farther from the start of thought.
Nothing for naught, or not for nothing anyway. Hideaway a feather, shell and rock for later.
The blood's no matter
see it stain our silver platter
drip by drop without a splatter
strung out in swirls for the father.
No good closer, could be farther.
Lies with lisps and secret kisses in the misty morning bring us close to wispy mourning.
Waning in our thoughts as boring, the rocks in burlap sacks and mooring.
Flowers break before they float, and we all weep with stilted stems dangling from the rower's boat.
Wooden planks to guide the water, pressure underscores the daughter.
Laughter follows splashing marauders, flowers fall and sun surrenders.
We left the banks strewn a sunder
rainfall heals mind and terra firma
Firmly grip your spinning mater
spinning stars and falling tops
the weeping sky will never stop
sinking past the raucous thoughts
sleeping with the dimming past.
I need to get back to that cryptic crossword since I only have about half of the clues written...
(Also don't have recording devices to make more piano quizzes at the moment... I might make another 100 radio song quiz though.)
Gonna be honest, don't exactly like Jarad.
Seems like the Golgari equivalent of Szadek and that framework makes me sort of grimace.
So, I pulled a foil stuffy doll today and then the Uncharted Realms article to go up was about.... none other than stuffy doll. It was a trippy moment.
How's everyone this morning?
I want a foil Stuffy Doll! I'm going to buy the Duel Deck regardless... the contents just determine whether I decide to open one or not or just keep it to collect? So far I have one unopened Duel Deck from Jace vs Chandra (english) til now. I didn't really like Elves vs Goblins, so I never cared enough to go and get one...
I am sweaty. I hate warmth. There are only 3 things I want warm out of life: A warm bed (as in nice blankets and optionally a wife/girlfriend therein), a warm shower (always a constant, regardless of the weather) and a warm meal. Heck, I can probably do without 1 and 3 most of the time. But don't you dare take away my hot shower.
As for Stuffy Doll, I just put it in my Memnarch deck after taking out Creepy Doll. At best, Creepy dolls keeps enemies away, but at worst it's just...sitting there. Stuffy Doll can at least ping at EOT.
@Ravnica: All I want is for them to reprint Birds of Paradise so I don't have a junky playset sitting around being useless.
Speculation: I'm fairly sure that they will probably print lands with the two land types. Maybe not the shock lands, but lands with types. Reason: Arbor Elf. I think that they brought this guy back to be semi-useful once Ravnica hits again.
I am not really asking for much from Ravnica. Just a good story (hahaha, I'll never get it) and no Niv-Mizzet as planeswalker. Oh, and more Bolas related cards. And a GOOD Rakdos card.

I agree with this completely.
@American Ninja Warrior: I'll put this in a spoiler, in case Kank hasn't watched yet.
There were a lot of people splashing into the water. It was pretty awesome. Only one person of the 24 who attempted stage 2 made it through. However, HE MADE IT PAST THE ULTIMATE CLIFFHANGER! No American has done that before, so even though he didn't finish stage 3, he still got the farthest of any American ever.
Now what will I watch on Monday nights?
@Stuffy Doll: If I open one in a sealed pool or a draft, I would be fine with that. Damage is damage.
@Event decks: I always look at them, but have never purchased one. Are they actually worth the money, in your opinion?

I liek Phelddagrifs.
Official Knitter of the Crafters.
Currently knitting: It's a surprise!
@Stuffy Doll: I like using it with Lureeffects. Hmm, little bugger might be fun with some of these new fight cards too.
@Skyrim: Been playing for a few weeks, up to level 15, here are the strange glitches I've encountered so far.
-I am stalked by a dead dragon. In life, the dragon stopped attacking but didn't die when I knocked out it's HP with magic. I got a pretty cool death sequence when I used a pick axe, dragon died, and I was able to get my treasure and soul. Doing good. But now sometimes when I exit a cave, it's dragon corpse with freshly intact flesh falls on me.
-I can't get the alchemy lab in my house.
Dude will take my money, but the lab won't show up.
-Sometimes I hover just above the ground if I jump from a crouch. Arms up and one foot just above the ground; jumping, fighting, or standing up cancels it, otherwise I can float around town.
Currently one of my stuffy doll is sitting in my Tibalt deck. It's all about torture and cruel choices, so it's really a rather clever inclusion. The deck itself isn't super effective, but it just oozes flavor.
As for Duel decks, Niv is the only reason I need to get one of those things. Huge red/blue fan. Besides that, I have a lot of them that I bought for parts of my walker decks (since I basically only do flavor builds) and those alternate art cards are great for those decks.
(for the record, 10 guild decks, 5 shard decks, and 17 walker decks. Sorin has been a total pain in the butt to put together because he doesn't have a creature base. That's why I'm looking forward to the comic in which he'll make an appearance. Maybe I can finally give him something.)
@Skyrim: One other question, regarding Lydia. I went into a cave, she vanished. Am I out of luck or can I get her to show up again somehow?
@Flavor builds: I tend to build around things I want to do rather than stories. But I've got a couple built with quirks.
-Box of kittens: Every creature is a cat with a CMC of 1.
-Red grunts: Every non-land card has a mono-syllabic name, and I speak very tersely while using it. 'FlingOrgg. Six you.'
I build tribal decks... The only problem is that after taking apart Linvala to build Sigarda, it's no longer an angel themed EDH deck... I do however have Drana vampires, Olivia Vampires, Oona 'Faeries' (to some extent) and am debating building an elf EDH deck... Maybe Yeva or Ezuri... Possibly Glissa Sunseeker or Nath of the Gilf-Leaf

We just watched it last night on DVR and were amazed that he got as far as he did since so many people failed so early in the round.

Yeah, the more dragons you kill, the more their bodies fall from the sky on you when you return to places where you killed them.
I think at one time, I'd killed 4-5 in the courtyard of the wizard academy. Whenever you'd walk out of one of the doors, the skeletons would fall from the sky and land in different spots sometimes.
I liked to set up my home base in Whiterun due to its centralized location and easy access to all major shopping supplies in one area.
They do seem to put the alchemy labs in odd places in your houses. I can't recall owning a house in Breezehome though.
I think in the Whiterun house, they put the alchemy lab near the stairs or in a little cul-de-sac on its own.
It really didn't matter to me since I usually used the one at the alchemy shop close by.
That's how I made most of my money in the game--brewing things from cheap crappy ingredients and selling the potions to everyone. (Once I'd unlocked the sell anything to any vendor perk.)
If you haven't yet:
Giant Toe + Wheat = $$$ (Over 1000 gold sell value if your alchemy level is high)

Breezehome is the name of the house in Whiterun. I went ahead and bought everything for it. But the little alcove under the stairs remains a mess of hay, barrels and spiderwebs.
As far as getting Lydia to come back, she most likely went back to Dragonsreach; she and I got separated once, but I found her waiting for me there. Unfortunately I got overzealous a few hours later trying to raid a bandits' stronghold and she died in the onslaught :(. But luckily, Jordis happened along later in the game :).
I've yet to pick up the expansion pack, but I will definitely do so when I have time to actually play a video game for a prolonged period of time (I'm currently playing Magic 2013 here and there).
I definitely need to get the Skyrim expansion. That's one of the best games I've played in years!
One of my favorite followers is a talking dog linked to one of the Daedric weapons quests. The dog doesn't do much damage but it cannot be hurt.
I loved letting the dog tank for me and distract the really tough dragons while I shot it from afar with either bows or spells.

It's already been spoiled? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
It's on the last page of the Izzet vs Golgari thread.
@Pat: Nicely done good sir.
@Aurora: You should just use a version of Axis of Awesome - 4 Chords to start out a quiz for the lulz. Then add to it.
@M13 Event Decks: Lots of Scars rares, which makes me kind of sad, but Thragtusk in a deck along with x2 Razorverge Thicket, Green Sun's Zenith, Blade Splicer, Sunblast Angel and Geist-Honored Monk versus x2 Slagstorm, Sulfur Falls, Darkslick Shores, Desolate Lighthouse, Firewing Phoenix, and Red Sun's Zenith. Think the Thragtusk deck is actually close to $20, while the other is only like... $15...
Desu.

Not as far as I know. I thought maye you were somewhere it got glitched.
As for Barinellos' flavor builds, I do that too, you know that. Most famously with Nicol Bolas.
