Anyhow back on topic.

I use to collect Magic: The Gathering cards as a child however I was never really taught how to play the game, so I just assumed that my card that had a troll holding an axe beat your card that had a picture of a field on it.

Sweet, now we can all come here to laugh at the nerds and make them revisit the no doubt traumatic highschool years...=D

^Pft, you two are just jealous. Who wouldn't like pretending you're a mighty wizard conjuring up monsters and spells in a card game ripe with collector's potential? Nothing nerdy about it, I'm sure beefier outdoor types would love it too.

I always liked the Lhurgoyf. He was one of the first supermonsters I ever met in M:tG and it's not that it was kickass which I found interesting, but I love the conceptuals. The Lhurgoyf feeds off corpses so naturally the more creatures there are in the graveyards, the mightier it becomes! I think it was the first card I truly noticed had such a conceptual quality about it.

Besides, I love the quotations they'd put on the cards. "Ach! Hans, run! It's the Lhurgoyf!"

Any other favourites?

i'm sorry but i dont need no stinkin card to tell me how to pretend,...all i need is a tutu, a tree, and plenty of time

oh man, i used to be so incredibly addicted to this game. i don't remember what the official count was - some ungodly number like 11,000 cards or something. i sold them all (for a lot less than i should have) before i went off to university all those years ago.

i wish i still had them - some of the full sets and rare cards i had would fetch more than a few buck today

i liked Icy Manipulator myself. i had a whole deck that had cards designed to tap opponent cards, while at the same time to generate hordes of 1/1 token creatures. it was brutally efficient, and very hard to beat.

I don't know what you're talking about, I was hotsauce in highschool baby.

Also, you have more posts about **** in the "what are you reading section" than you do in any other section...do not deny your people.

I may have had nerdy interests, but I don't think I've really been percieved as a nerd by people who didn't know me back in the days. If they did, at least they didn't tell me.
