Re: MECCG at Gamex 2016, LAX Hilton - 27-29 May 2016

I wasn't sure until today whether I'd be making it or not, but it looks like I will be there, as will both my kids. The Girl will be heading off to do Minecraft-related things. The boy, however, is looking forward to playing Middle Earth against somebody other than me. I've been teaching him to play...

Re: MECCG at StrategiCon LAX - Gateway 2015! Labor Day Week

I'll be there Saturday afternoon and all day Sunday. I'm going to attempt, possibly foolishly, to play a FW (which I've never done against a living person before). My style of play, such as it is, seems to be "lose badly", though, so I imagine it can't really go any worse than any of my ot...

Re: MECCG at Gamex 2015! Memorial Day Weekend at LAX Hilton

By the way, Curious Gene, we missed you late Sunday--I'll be sure to bring these red card sleeves for you! :D The kids were rapidly losing steam, and it seemed like a strategic retreat was my best option. For Gateway my wife is coming along to keep an eye on them while I play. I... well, I hope tha...

Re: Revealing identical unique items at Free council

So, let's suppose, hypothetically, that I had only two types of MPs, item and character. 7 character, and I think 11 item. One of my characters happened to also be in my hypothetical opponent's hand. Following that sequence: * Add up the points. I've got 7 character, 11 item. * Double my opponent's ...

Re: California Players

Never did manage to play the White Tree, despite twice having it in my hand with a Sapling having arrived at Minas Tirith on the final turn. If I could have stored the Sapling in the Site Phase (instead of waiting for an Organization Phase that would never arrive) I'd have been able to pull it off....

Re: California Players

I showed up a bit late, but since I wasn't the only one to do so, I did get to play in the first round. I had compiled a Gandalf challenge deck, but had accidentally missed a few proxies, so I borrowed Ben's Pallando deck. The first match was against the Pallando deck. It was a little short on time ...

Re: California Players

I'll be there! I thought I wasn't going to make it, but it turns out I fail at reading comprehension and everything on my calendar for the weekend was on the wrong date. My only problem now is that I have to build some actual legal decks. I haven't played a non-solitaire game in well over 10 years, ...

Re: For sale The Balrog, Lidless Eye, Wizards, Dragons

Before I ask what the asking price might be, I feel as though I should ask whether or not you'd be willing to ship to the US.

Would you be willing to ship to the US? The box looks really cool, but it also looks large and fairly heavy, especially once it's loaded with cards.

Re: Introduce yourself

Hello, hello. I think the last time I played MECCG was probably in 1998, when I was in college. My roommates and I all played that and Magic, but after graduation, the cards went into a box for over a decade. I unpacked them a couple days ago, and went looking for card and rarity lists in the Intern...
