Thanks for checking it out.  I searched for Goblin Lackey and then Dark Ritual and got "error on page".

EDIT:  It must have to do with the default browser on my work computer (IE 7.0.6001 etc).  Just tried it with Firefox and it worked fine.

emidln is the search function not working, or does "type in a query string" mean something other than "type in a card name"?

Great article.  And the links at the bottom really reminded me how good Menendian's tourney reports are.  Incredibly detailed, thought processes explained, going through multiple lines of play, etc

You can sign up at movember.com.  You stop shaving (or just grow a porn-stache) for the month of November, make a "mospace" page, give out the link, and get donations.  I know a lot of us have corporate jobs, but what employer will say no to this?  Mine didn't, and many will dollar-match.

Yeah I like that R&D into Helmline kill.  Speaking of, can you get me my stormboards password somehow?  I lost it.

EDIT:  Nevermind emidln I found it, sorry if this should have been a PM.

And I can't take Fastbond out of this deck.  Gush is too good not to run for same-turn piles, and Fastbond is too good not to play with Gush.

Well we do have Preordain as an added cantrip which digs just as deep as See Beyond.  Fastbond is a card that I'm happy see vs shops.  Gush draws cards, generates mana and Stifles Wastelands.

Does Inazio post here at all?  If not, does anyone know what his sideboard plan was?  He was playing Tropical Storm sideboarding into Oath, but with only 1 Forbidden Orchard.  It makes me think he was doing it vs aggro, but this deck should be crushing that anyway so probably not.  Was it for control with Bobs, or what?

Looks like a good time, and thanks for the lists.  What is the "Engel" in the 3rd place Dredge list?  Iona?  Angel of Despair?

Hey, for stacking the cards I meant the same way you can stagger the lands, you can still read each card name.  When I do Empty the Warrens for 20 Goblin tokens, it takes up a ton of room when each has to have it's own individual space with a buffer zone around it.  Speaking of EtW, a shortcut for the clone command would be very helpful.  Really liking the program, and lots of the little stuff that it does better (like downloading card pics as you play) make a big difference to me.

Hi Steve, could you explain a little bit about Spell Pierce over Duress?  Blue count is still high without it, but were you worried more about topdecked removal or topdecks in general?  Flashbacks from Dredge?  Do you think these outweigh seeing their hand, pumping Dryad sooner, and them not being able to pay to shut it off (especially since there's no mana denial other than Trygon)?  Thanks

Are you playing the list you posted above?  Do you like Guttural Response better than Welders, even with the Grim Monoliths?

"Using proxies" is one of the options, you listed it right in your post dude.  I don't think it's right to tell people to reconsider playing Vintage because even though they're following the rules, they're not following them in the way that you think they should.

Another option here is to realize that you're following the rules, can proxy whatever cards you want, and not reconsider it at all 

Liking this so far.  Small suggestions:

-Having the option to save token names/stats and select them when you "Create Token".  
-Can we stagger the cards on top of each other?
-From "View Top x Cards of Library" pop-up, having the normal options (send to bottom of library, send to graveyard, etc).  Using Lim-Dul's Vault properly seems impossible unless I'm missing something.
-Any way to just make the play area bigger?  There's a lot of empty space on the screen.  Already using "Economical View".

Definitely prefer this to MWS, nice job man.

I wouldn't call Mind's Desire "dead" in a deck full of rituals, tutors, card draw, yawg will, etc.  For pass the turn piles I'd rather have RD (plus two Tendrils sideboard) than uncastable unpitchable Beacon maindeck.  I will definitely splash green rather than red.

Probably none of those artifacts other than Ratchet Bomb will see play, don't worry about them.  Not that Trygon is bad, it still eats up Oaths and Stax/MUD pieces and all.

If it was me I would bring Dredge to any unknown meta.  You roll most everything game one, and if they don't pack lots of sideboard hate....

Yeah I like Goblin War Strike sideboard in the Legacy build, but not in Vintage without 4 Burning Wish and I wouldn't want to waste maindeck slots on it.

I'm not playing either in TPS or (obviously) ANT.  I'll play 4x Gush in Doomsday.

Did we kind of already establish that Arcane Denial results in these things are directly linked with you having more familiarity with it than with the other decks you're playing?

If you have symbiotes and no elves, or sentinels and no druids/birchlores, where exactly are you getting the mana to make Genesis at all effective?  Do you actually play Priest of Titania?  I think maybe we're talking about different decks here.

Yes, I have this deck built and play it a lot.  You don't ever end up with 20 mana but "no gas".  If you have 20 mana you have glimpses or skullclamp online, most likely both.  The only time there is ever an issue is if you've cast more than one glimpse, have exactly one card left in your library, and that card is your Grapeshot.

Obviously if you have 20 mana you're already going off, so what is this for?

So you draw Brainstorm and play it, putting card 1 and card 2 back.  You play the Shelldock (exiling Emrakul), Lotus and Time Walk.
On Time Walk turn you draw Card 1 and cast Emrakul, giving you another Time Walk.
On the second Time Walk turn you draw Card 2, attack with Emrakul for 15 and wipe their board.  Luckily for them they don't need any board position because they win on your next draw step.

Say they have a Smokestack and a Tanglewire.  They obviously want me to sac, then tap.  But what if I have an Ichorid in the graveyard too?  Do I get to put the Ichorid trigger on the stack first, then they order theirs from there?

9 mana available (with Rits, etc) when I know my opp is holding FoW, "baiting" with Bargain then resolving Necro.  >_>

What Minamo?  The Minamo land only untaps Legendary things, which Shelldock isn't.

Just confirming that I would attend as long as there's enough notice.

Myriad would be nice, that's a completely doable 2.75 hours for me.

I ordered these Shelldocks after seeing the Legacy deck idea last week, then realized that you have to pass the turn after playing them
