Why on earth would that not be allowed? There are a bunch of twitch channels out there just replaying old content.

Devil's advocate, it's facially content that belongs to another Twitch/youtube streamer, and it's not flagged with the 'replay' flag which is meant to help inform Twitch viewers that they're not watching a live broadcast

But Twitch probably doesn't care about the IP theft because it's not Twitch's IP, and as a whole they're just happy with more viewers. So even if it's a "supposed to" thing about the replay flag they won't give a poo poo about a small channel

Edit: I think Jeff is trying to use Twitter clout to bring it to WOTC/SCG's attention so that they'll issue the copyright complaint

It's not, generally, but because WOTC the copyright owner said he could (all the money is going to Ukraine relief.) He's been allowed to do it.
He's been banned and that he's back let's you know twitch had given him the ok

Magic, genocide or magical genocide. Maybe an ice age.

Edit: apparently it was a mysterious cataclysm

In the descriptions of stuff from the propositions, there's references to the world being massively upended in a disaster, all the fantastic technology of the past being lost, and humanity only barely surviving. People like Mustadio make a living off of trying to recover the lost relics, and the dominant religion claims the disaster was caused by God's wrath in response to the persecution of Fantasy Jesus.

Despite coming from the first game to use the setting, it explains why FF12 and FFTA2 can have magic donkey men on airships discuss magic wmd rocks and in Vagrant Story magic has become so rare as to be a faerie tale and by FFTA and 2's framing devices it's a completely modern world except there's, like, one artifact still imbued with magicks.

Haha you’re probably mostly joking but I talked to my dad about it. Materials were 1600, labour several thousand, and I’m looking at shipping but freight rates are kinda ridiculous and look like 1000 also. I figure if magic nerds drop $150 on custom wood deck boxes it’s not actually out of the question to make a small business if it.

I thought about calling out Last Chamce being a $50 card that never had a foil printing before and hesitated since I assumed it would be available separately.


Vvv Same if just for the Mystery box. Whether you Crack it or draft it its probably the most fun set they've put out in the last five years. One box I was able to draft Kiki-jiki, Purphoros, and Elesh Norn.

I'm hesitant to buy the dumb super expensive 30th anniversary thing because they've still failed to deliver on their last dumb super expensive secret lair thing (coin flip commander deck).

That and while the booster box and lair are cool, I really just want the giri cards.

If a kind goon buys this and doesn't want the secret lair and wants to give me a cool price on it, I might be interested to take you up on it :unsmith:

I might agree except that's the price of the mystery booster box alone, so getting everything else with it is pretty sweet

kalel posted:

the price of wood and other building materials has shot through the roof, especially if you want quality material

I got multiple quotes for getting siding put on a 2-story house recently and the minimum was 48,000 dollars, and that was barebones work, not doing windows etc. another quote was 79,000 including windows. it cost less than half the first quote 25 years ago when my parents had it done the first time.

also got a quote for cedar fencing for the back yard and it was like 8000 dollars for ~140 feet of fencing

there's apparently some deal that just got struck that should stabilize the price of wood over the next couple years, so that's good at least. but yeah, the cost of materials is absolutely bonkers at the moment, not just wood

yeah it is pretty tempting, but i think this will probably tank the price of mystery booster boxes since they were already pretty soft beforehand. people liked drafting it but not when it sells for $250+. i may just buy one though since I don't own any at all.

also one of the kamigawa commander decks has a duplicate card and a missing land.. wonder if these will have that issue.

He's fond of blocking people who like tweets that mention him in a bad light, or that he thinks might be mentioning him in a bad light, or that don't mention him or anybody else but he thinks are subtweeting him, or that he just doesn't like. So it's not surprising.

From the pictures of the piece (nice work, btw) it looks like a lot of it is solid wood. You could probably replicate a similar structure and look with more plywood pieces in certain spots and thinner cuts overall to cut down the cost a bunch.

But yeah, even then, material costs are pretty bonkers.
