Sorry to everyone I missed it, not enough time in a day and semester is silly.  Good looks to everyone who attended, I imagine it was nuts.  One love.

Perhaps you can find room to fit in a Zuran Orb and Crucible?  Not sure how well it would work but I just figured with all the cards you would see.

I pronounce this tourney D.S.S approved... That's DRUNKEN SHIT SHOW.  Only Travis can hold a tourney where its legal for us to get drunk and flip cards.  GGs is gonna slap around bitches like it was Gifts 2k6.  This is going to be EPIC.  Everyone support Travis, even if your not going, he threw an amazing tourney last time and he deserves the best for this.

So ELD i've been debating this for quite awhile... August 30th is when your's truly turns 21.  I wanted to have some cats here to play some magic but who knows, I could drag another female to a magic tourney *snicker*.  So would there be like maybe a birthday entrance fee and custom proxy if I goto this with a few people?  I think its reasonable I mean I am Outlaw.

Should I start a vote?

I'll guarentee I top 8 this if I go.  If not, i'll get piss drunk and not care.

Does Vintage not see me as the abomination that grew from a young gun to a full blown Outlaw?  I walk down the street and ladies gasp and are all WHOAMG thats the Outlaw. 

No seriously, the Vintage community is really family to me.  I am heavily thinking about going to this if I can find transportation.

So after much flip flopping I guess i'll go to this thing. I don't actually want to go because I hate type 1 right now but I figure i'm going to hate myself if I go but I also have nothing better to do tomorrow which is obviously sad and pathetic so I might as well try and do something remotely constructive and just play magic.

I'll bring you some razor blades T00L.

look forward to seeing everyone there ^^


Wait .... Razorblades?!?! What ???? CHOP CHOP CHOP

15  Vintage Community Discussion / General Community Discussion / Resolution after the stack, Thank you on: July 10, 2008, 01:15:42 pm
Thank You Magic, and in particular Ray Robbilard.  Very recently (like 2 days ago) my biological father was able to finally after searching and searching locate something that would lead to a series of connections for us to speak after 20 years.  He located Magic, in particular the youtube video on the TMD that I took down.  He said without a doubt he had finally found me because of the way I spoke, and looked and everything, he found a huge wealth of information in something so simple as a card game.  Basically after time and time driving home from a doctor appointment I received a phone call that looked unfamiiliar, a man with a thick accent told me he had been trying to find me for years.  In such a split second the emptiness that resided within me was being to be fulfilled and the lies unraveled.  My life of demoralization from racial discrimination based upon me from others can finally be removed and the ignorance expelled.  My entire previous life is fake because it was all based upon lies and deception. This also explains my extremely high tolerance to illicit substances and addiction used, the way I can be completely haneous to even Magic players because of the lack of positive reinformant and anger,

I apologize to anyone that may have hurt with the words i've said, I am a terrible individual, every thing I did to cause pain was a cry for help or recognition was jealousy at happyness or to try and fill my emptiness. which I never was given. my mother me from feeling she medicated me and locked away keys in a clouded mind ad the thought was itself horrendous.  My mother lied and ruled me under the ideas that it was a violent case of rape and caused her pain when she thought about it (indirectly me causing pain every time she looked at me).  But for once I would not console her for the terrible things that happended to her and I would normally say no it wasnt your fault, but I didnt.  I unleashed all my rage I had been buiilding for years, because of her lies and deceit.  I always made my mom a victim when it was exactly what she wanted.  It was her fault and I wont give you pity because in your "selfless acts" and protection you desroyed and opressed her own sons life without any realization of it.  She did not know what it was like to be shunned as a terrorist and having no way actually tellling them they were wrong, and the irrational fear of being taken from the population.  A person cannot properly understand the world unless he really understands himself.   

I would like to thank the magic community because Magic allowed me to create a new identity that I knew was true.  It gave me at least some fulfilment in my search for closure.  In the end it all allowed me to be on YouTube which is how my biological father knew without doubt that it was me.  Thank you for filming my premonition which lead to the closure I always needed.  You truly are one of my greatest heroes, Ray deserves more recognition for what he does for us.  Hell the world, he is a member of society who's only function is to insert information (which he barely is able to differ from the curriculum) in a manner in which a student can understand.  But I have seen him correcting papers while trying to run waterbury, he taught me an entire semesters calculas class in an hour and I 99'ed he final because of him and he didnt have to do it, but he did it because he is a great man, and now plan for a wedding which he really deserves all the happiness in the world.  He has also influenced me to change career to politics or public speaking to try even as a single voice get teachers the recognition and the pay they deserve.  Teachers shape how the world happens tomorrow, their like always having Future Sight out.  Something so simple such as putting something on you tube could cause such a butterfly effect and give me resolution that i've been yourning for for years.  Simple things we do may affect someone completely in another area. Pay attention to small things and appreciate them beause sometimes like a snowflake their here for a second, but a simple thing like closure may never actually true.  Please everyone, pay attention to the small things and never let them assume they will be there, cause one day a Ninja riding a hurricane could swoop it up and harness the energy for himself. Life really is short and it needs to be savored.  So thank you Ray for being the spark that started fire in the process of finding my father, thank you for being a great friend and mentor, you have changed my life in such a way that would take lifetimes to express and I owe you everything for me in starting my life.  I believe everything that has happened couldnt been a good beginning for my lifes book, the first 20 years I was nothing and now I can become something.  I believe the first 20 years is really the preamble to my lifes work of art, life with identity is something many take for granted, please dont know what I would have done for closure, if I won a 100mil and right when they gave me the big check someone said Justin, i'll trade you closure for that check I would have done it in a heart beat.  Because no amount of money would have given me closure, the only thing was the truth. 

Thank you to those that have touched me and bettered me for even a fewest of seconds.  Influencing someone for a single second could change their entire lives without you even remotely knowing the affect.  Thank you to magic for giving me an identity.  Thanks to GGs because you cant spell Emo without a lyric about /cry. And thank you Ray, you really have shaped me and changed my life in a way you could never really know.  Please let me do something for you, anything to show my appreciation. I hope you have the happiest life, cause you deserve it.  I dont have much money cause of my soon move and totalled my car a few days ago because of medication sideeffects that werent suppose to happen.  I dont know that I could ever show enough how thankful something so simple was and how life changing it was. 

Thank you.

Justin Timoney

Oh good now you can go to more tournaments/party with us more Very Happy

Speaking of party, I am going to be turning 21 on Aug 30th.  I'll be in Boston obv obv, so to who would be interested we should figure out somethin to do.
17  Eternal Formats / Miscellaneous / Re: [Deck] Why innovate when you can just hit the format with a sledgehammer? on: July 02, 2008, 10:42:56 am
I am just saying the smokestack thing because I had this exact list built for Day 2 of the 4x Workshop event with -4 smokestack, -4 thorn, +3 smokestack, +4 sphere of resistances, and +1 bazaar.  The idea was to drop a leyline or chalice and use bazaars to filter out the cards that cannot be played or extra leylines.  I decided not to play it last minute because of lack of testing.
18  Eternal Formats / Blue-Based Control / Re: [Deck] ICBM Oath for Vintage 2.0 on: July 02, 2008, 10:34:01 am
On Akroma / Razia as a kill, has anyone tested Savor the Moment?  Seems interesting as the creatures don't tap and you can oath again for the win.  Just throwin that out there.

No ones gonna tell outlaw he sucks/is a little bitch?

We all have, he is, and he knows it.  He can beat up on McNally all he wants, I'm undefeated against both of them anyway. heh

I dont even know who you are, but i'll snort lines off your dead body.

I will gurantee the GGs after party will go down in the history books as the party to which caused Enfield to burn to the ground.  There will be a GGs party list, I will be fighting this restriction kicking and snorting... err screaming.  This party will have more fury, substance and zing than Robert Downey Jr.   I will atempt to have the suitcase from Fear and Loathing.   I will create a guiness record of alcohol poisoned individuals.  We do need to plan ahead since I guess CT closes early for liquor stores.

I need individuals to contact me who know information about CT liquor and can stock in advance, and individuals who have A.D.D.

I am in such fury I dont even know where were staying, Stefan what are we doing?

When you grew up and became the player you are not just because of brainstorm but the inclusion in all deck the format becomes nothing of what it was.  It wasnt that blue basic decks were superior because of brainstorm, its the interaction with out cards.  brainstorming into the scroll for gush is what would cause problems.  I believe I will be exchanging all of my cards at this tourney for funds to pursue something that wont be enjoyed for me anymore.

Good luck for those hopeful, but the pain felt by the old timers, it was a good run.


Blue based decks wont have the ability to filter into the contents it needs at the way it would. Every top 8 spot that involved brainstorm was not just brainstorm, but gush and scroll and ponder as well. 

I feel this is a civil rights movement, brainstorm is not the issue.   
27  Vintage Community Discussion / General Community Discussion / Re: How to get brainstorm and ponder back: Post! on: June 04, 2008, 06:09:03 pm
The situation I believe arises is that blue based decks typically need turns, typically from 1-3 to set their game plan up.  Without brainstorm or even ponder U based decks fall behind tempo based decks.  card filtering becomes more difficult just without brainstorm / fetch.  Combo sufferers hugely where fish/ichorid and shop will thrive.  The format will become little men beating on artifact man.

You guys can bring all the hate you want, we've fought threw it all and still laughed at your feeble attempts.  The only thing we fear is Richard Simmons and the 5-0.  I say we have a side event for GGs + Gooch vs. three of your attempts at a Vintage player.  All else fails, we have Mastertap and hes one wild and crazy guy.  We'll beat you so bad you become sterile to ever prevent GWS offspring from being manufactured.  We'll bring you to Christmas land and crack a yogurt truck on your entire family.

New England > Whatever is left.

Twaun.
There will be no glory in your sacrifice. I will erase even the memory of Twaun from the histories! Every piece of GWS parchment shall be burned. Every magic historian, and every scribe shall have their eyes pulled out, and their tongues cut from their mouths. Why, uttering the very name of GWS, or Twaun, will be punishable by death! The world will never know you existed at all!

Few GGs will stand against many.

vicodin doesn't stop me from top 8ing...

It makes me top 8?

Twaun,
I'll make this the biggest disappointment of your life.  The tears that fall from your face of the money lost to travel here will taste so delicious.
