Joel Riedesel: Magic

MtG Treatise work started

Fri, 09 May 2003 18:18:52 GMT

Finally got the initial organization for MtG Treatise in place, started a yahoo discussion group for it (mtgtreatise) and am ready to begin both discussion of my proposed outline (and hashing out of it) as well as work on software.

Casual 5 person draft

Fri, 02 May 2003 18:24:01 GMT

Played draft with the Tims, Greg and Luke. I performed as well as usual which is pretty poorly. I drafted a primarily black deck with some red and green backup. I ended up going Br. Havoc Demon was useful but others liked to abuse his wrath effect.

I find, once again, how foreign the cards are when you only play once a month. How to change that?

Scourge Pre-release

Fri, 02 May 2003 18:17:53 GMT

The Scourge pre-release is this May 17 at the Holiday Inn DIA. With a little luck edwolf will have their act together with the pre-registration and the pods and perhaps I'll have a chance at finishing the tournament in time to go to a play I have that night. Why is it that I have a play on 2 out of 3 pre-releases each year? What are the chances of that?
