Bah, has this ever happened to you?

I know I own a couple of Jittes, a Cryptic Command, and a pair of Grindstones, but I have no idea where they are.  I remember having em out, and was on the fence about putting in a binder for trade bait and keeping em, but I can't for the life of me figure out where I put them.  I know I didnt trade them away, but they aren't in my keeper box, nor are they in a deck.

Dammit.  Looks like I have to clean my office again.

Rarely, but it happens. Usually whatever I'm looking for is busy being a proxy in a deck somewhere, or is stuffed in a sleeve with a couple other associated cards (such as finding your Squee nestled between Genesis and Anger).

I just found my grindstones.  They were tucked behind the paper proxies in tezz as a time vault and colossus.  Likely did it when I changed over from painter.

I had like 8 Brainstorms and I can't find any of them, so yeah it happens. It's pretty irritating.

We are 3 guys mixing our cards together...so while my cards dosn't get lost, figuring out which are mine can be difficult :/

I didn't exactly misplace them, but I attended my first draft tournament last Friday and had my 2 multiplayer decks stolen. I take some responisiblity for carelessly leaving them by my coat near the door, but it's rather discouraging.

I'm fairly meticulous with my personal cards, but our group pools most of our stuff together, so differentiating between it all is tough.

I take it that the information desk wasnt able to help? I couldnt believe that that happened. That was the first time since I've been running the FNM at school that I've been aware of it happening, too.

oh! I've been so busy this week i completely forgot to ask them about it. Probably I'll get the chance today/tomorrow, but tbh I haven't got my hopes up about it. There really weren't any cardsthat were valuable (in terms of dollars) in the decks, at least.

I'd hope you get your decks back. Anyone who steals someone else's cards is just scum IMO. On the topic of losing cards, I got a playset of Gifts right after they came out, and I lost them somewhere in my house. I never did find them. They are probably on like the side of my bed I or in a stack of papers I keep under my TV. And for some reason, I keep finding Gushes all over my room. I have found 3 so far, all in sleeves and just sitting by themselves...weird. Oh I did find a mint AQ Strip Mine in a toploader buried in my closet when I was cleaning it out.
