Zoness I accidentally sent you a list with 5 of a card in it, check your PMs for the adjustment back to legality.

I lost 2-0 to PhyrexianLibrarian :)

Confirming this. Gotta admit, I'm already starting to question my belief of what's safe to unban.

Monday would probably be the best for me. Got some people in from out of town this weekend.

Monday works, I'll be chilling in IRC when I'm ready to play.

It's #mtgoon, if you want to play tonight let me know so I can bring my laptop home, otherwise we can try to go tomorrow (Thursday) night.

Phyrexian Librarian I may be able to play over the weekend but more likely Monday/Tuesday 6-11 GMT, how does that sound>

What's that, 1 to 6 ESTish? I can make that work, I'll be on IRC whenever I'm on XMage/Cockatrice so just look for me there.

Edit: Never mind, ports blocked at work, i'll be on in like 30 minutes

PhyrexianLibrarian, let me know through PM, this thread, or IRC what your schedule is like. Mine should be less busy after Monday EST. If I'm not on IRC, you can just tell the bot what your schedule is.

Hey I'm online now, otherwise I'll be around tomorrow and Wednesday in the evenings, just let me know when you can jump on.

Since we're in the third round I would like to know, are you all enjoying the tournament so far? Are you using banned cards, or have you played against them? What have your matches with banned cards been like, in your opinion? Have they been fun?

I'm running 4x Bloodbraid Elf, and while it's definitely very good, I haven't hit it enough in real games to know whether it's bannably broken yet.

Dig Through Time, however, is bonkers and may need to stay where it is :(

You ever in IRC? When are you free?

Hey yeah, sorry it's been holiday time up here. I'll be online Saturday during the day and Sunday evening, most likely, and I'll be in IRC whenever I'm ready to go.

I haven't been super diligent about checking, but I haven't seen you on at all yet. I idle in IRC all the time so just msg me when you're around.

Jumping on right now!

What even happened? Let's just replay game 2 and if necessary 3?

I brushed against my touchpad, which XMage interpreted as "don't cascace, just leave the spell in exile, no takesies-backsies"

Conclusions: Bloodbraid Elf is a pretty nutty and fun card, but the old strategy of "1-for-1 your opponent until you BBE because your individual cards are all more powerful than theirs" doesn't work anymore. I think it can probably come off the list, at least maybe over the summer. Worst case they just re-ban it right away.

Well that's kind of bullshit. Did you want to play again? Or have you already uninstalled XMage at this point?

Nah take the win, I'm not a huge fan of my deck and I've been making really bone-headed play mistakes lately so I think I'm mentally checked out anyways.
