Yeah, Lotus is up $22.26 this week. Not sure is this is a market correction/buyout or evidence of new players buying in (hope it's the latter).

Also, great time to pick up Mirrodin block cards like Chrome Mox, Chalice, and Belcher due to the flashback drafts.

Thanks for the reminder, I'll have to grab some of those this week.

There is technically a third week since they are doing MMM, MMD, and MDF which puts a ton of mirrodin product in circulation relative to other formats. That said, Legacy cube started and that might provide competition for the flashbacks...which is a shame as Crucibles are pretty expensive.

Judging from the fact that I see new names in the queues all the time, I'd say that people are buying in for sure. It's amazing what can happen when a format gets a little bit of promotion.

Between the P9C, VSL, and all of the awesome streamers and content producers people are becoming interested I the format. I'm very happy about it. Since I started playing Vintage I've fallen in love with it so much that I lost all interest in all other formats. So I'm very excited to see the format flourish online.

I sold out last year and almost feel the urge to come back. If I had a computer that ran MTGO better, I'd do it. But the whole experience was so excruciating to me that I can't do it (I have a Mac and had to run MTGO through VirtualBox and it ran very badly).

I'm very happy dailies seem to be firing a lot these days! Congrats to us all!

I remember reading somewhere that you can borrow cards on mtgo. Is there some sort of enforced lending setup, where the person you give your cards has to give them back at a designated time? Or is it just using the trading mechanics and the honor system to enforce the deal?

It's the latter, so only loan cards to someone you trust.

It's the same as loaning out paper cards. Make sure it's someone you trust, because they could run off with them and never be seen again.

I have gotten alot of use out of my MTGO cards. I am very pleased with my decision to buy into the format.

Sorry about that. I have the exactly same setup but I have basically never experienced any problems with the setup on three different macs. Guess im lucky.

But seriously I feel wotc should support OS X. I dont see a reason why not to.

I have a pretty big Vintage and Legacy collection. I have loaned cards to two people I know and trust + once for Julian Knab as he needed a playset of Groves for his stream. Every time I have recorded the trade with screencapture software.
