I'm with you on blogitis. I have a lot of great ideas for new blogs, much more niche than the one I write for now, but have next to no time to get them off the ground, promoted, and read. Oh well, I'll just have to keep the ideas in my head for later, when I make it big, have all my bills paid, and get a chance to do my work of passion rather than necessity. .-= Professor Beej´s last blog ..A Different Kind of Roleplay in World of Warcraft =-.

It does exist, but hasn’t seen any traffic in almost a year, and no real traffic in 2-3.

@Sam: Although WoW Jackass is a good site, I’d consider it more of a directory or a listing as opposed to like a drama blog.

Now if you were to add a blog component that would randomly feature some jackass and the story behind why they’re added…

I see your red deck and I raise you my White Weenie deck!

4 Suntail Hawks
2 Isamaru, Hound of Konda
2 Konda’s Hatamoto
3 Devoted Retainer
2 Indomitable Will
1 Samurai of the Pale Curtain
2 Call to Glory
2 Aether Vial
2 Vigilance
2 Leonin Den Guard
1 Hokori, Dust Drinker
3 Shining Shoal
3 Umezawa’s Jitte
3 Raise the Alarm
2 Eight- and- a- Half Tails

No idea if this is even remotely tournament worthy, but I beat my husband’s butt with this deck, so I must have done something right.

Oh man I used to play MTG a lot. I mean, A LOT. I have so many cards, and not nearly enough decks put together for the amount that I have. I used to play at school, at friends’ houses, at the local comic book store, everywhere and anywhere that had a table and chairs and ample space to set up a playing field. My friends and I even got kicked out of a restaurant for playing because they thought we were gambling. I haven’t bought any of the expansion set cards for about 3 years now. Not since the samurai-themed ex-pac. To be honest, I miss it. But it’s difficult (and expensive) to keep up with. Besides, I have a lot of hobbies to keep up with, and those take time and money as well. I like buying DVDs and CDs, paying my monthly WoW addi…I mean, subscription…and picking up other various video games here and there (I own a DS, Wii, and PS2). My Magic playing has diminished to the point where I only really play with my cousins during family holidays. And that’s not quite enough to get me back into extreme deck-building. It is still fun to play though when it does happen.

You just scored a point with this MTG-speak. Shame I stopped playing a while back and all my decks are retro like no other.

Matt, don't make me re-create my Merfolk deck online and beat you into submission. I'll do it. .-= Josh´s last blog ..Ret FAQ for 3.3 =-.

Drama is a guilty pleasure alot of people enjoy, regardless of if they admit to it or not. You can help but rubber neck when you drive by a car wreck.

I’d really hate to see a segment like classifieds go to waste because they won’t provide what readers would like to see. But if someone else wants to fill the bill I’m all for it.

Zubrin: Nope, all my friends here are MTG players. WoW TCG hasn’t really caught on anywhere in Vancouver to my knowledge. If they switched over, I’d follow them as well.

Juz: I’d consider sideboarding those at the very least. I have to check out what the locals are like first.

But topdecking two Earthquakes one after the other is a great finisher.
