8 in 10: You CAN’T Write Infinite Articles On Type 1
We didn’t think he could do it… And by God, he couldn’t, only managing to produce a paltry eight daily articles before collapsing in a heap of body fluids. Still, he manages to pound out a tourney report that lovingly takes Oscar Tan and bends him over his knee.
Five in Five: Friday Night Magic And Creative Civil Disobedience
For the seventh day in a row, this maniac is submitting amusing reports mixed in with Type 2 information. How long CAN he keep it up? In the meantime, enjoy some thoughts on Kibler’s RUG and why it’s okay to take a whiz on a statue of Canadian prime minister John Diefenbaker.
Why Threshold Is The Weakest Link
U/G or U/G/x decks that are overly focused on threshold seem to be prone to falling into card disadvantage traps, spending their effort to get to threshold at the cost of a positive beatdown position.

Mixed kNuts: Calm Like a Bong*, **, ***

Compulsive Victory: A CounterBurn Tournament Report
I have to warn you, though, my tournament report is long – almost definitely long-winded. But this deck is quite complex to play and describing the interactions with discarding and paying madness requires a lot of extra words in each sentence.
A Response From A Professional: The Housing Administrator Discusses Crime And Punishment
I have a Masters in Public Administration, and I have worked in this field doing both confrontations and adjudications for six years now. .. And the largest misunderstanding from those who criticize the DCI is the assumption that the DCI should follow criminal law.
Quick Thoughts On DCI Penalties And Enforcement
In real life, very good lawyers witnesses who bear allegational testimonies to pieces. It’s facts and tight reasoning that drive decisions. That, and solid arguments. Hey, I testify for a living. I know.
Five Articles In Five Days: Green Judgement All-Stars…Plus Gold Cards!
Your cards will NOT balance out, despite what the law of averages might say. Lady Luck owes you nothing, and if pressed, she will pay you nothing. Some good advice in general… And it also includes, for the first time, the GEORDIE TAIT BUILD YOUR OWN REVIEW!
Jedi Mind Tricks
Use something cool as tokens. The best markers I have found are bullets. I picked up a box of .45 caliber bullets from a friend who had sold his pistol and still had the ammunition. Nothing says love like adding another bullet to the table.
Ask The Right Questions
We’ve been given a gift – we know the next set for Odyssey block down to the card. That gives us more time… But can we ask the right questions that let us break OBC wide open? That, and a special editorial apology for the Rizzo Fiasco.
